JESUS QUOTE OF THE DAY - Nothing is worth the price of Worry.

"Do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life ?

And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."

If I may offer my Sebparahrase: It's a good idea to reach a blanket decision that nothing is worth the price of worry. Then once that decision has been reached, you are free to happily and healthily go about your day. The price of worry is very high, the stress effects are quite literally "not worth it" -especially, as Jesus points out, since you-worrying doesn't actively change anything anyway. Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? Good question mate.

I thing all what God want is that we give up willingly the mind power that was given to us by him for exchange of faith. And if we do it, worries will go a way and the results will be the same.

Why would we be given "mind power" so that we can give it back? Makes no sense. Maybe the goal is use the mind power, to attract what we desire. Our power has been hidden, schooling young minds in "education".

It make no sense to me either but it make sense to God. If I were god this would be the most creative thing to do from my perspective.

From your perspective how do you know what "makes sense to God"? Im wondering how you know this information?

Here I am going to answer your question from an Abrahimic religion point of view. We human tend to invent and create things for long time, from inviting the first chair to Artificial Intelligence. Why are we creating things, the answer is to make our life easier and to serve us. The most creative and impressive invention is a human- looked robot with a high AI level. And we hope that it will serve humanity by doing things for us. Now since God create human in his image, what he wants from us. He does not need us to make his life easier. He wants to show his ultimate creativity to the angels and himself as well. And We with free well are his ultimate creativity we have so much free well to the limit where we can give it back to him freely.

I asked how you know this information? That's all. :)

Similarity between human’s and God’s creation intentions. This is my source the logic of the mind that was given to us by God. I hope I answer your question.

The only answer I see is "your logic" ......don't worry : )
