Before and After
Matthew 6:27: And who of you, by worrying, can add a single hour to his life.
What Jesus is saying here is that worrying is not doing you any good. It's not beneficial, and it will never help you get through anything. Worrying about something is not going to make it go away. Therefore, worrying is not going to add a single hour to your life, all it will do is weigh you down.
Once, I caught myself thinking "Oh great. I have that thing we're starting in English today and I forgot to worry about it." I'm serious. I read this verse and realized this: worrying about something is not going to help me get through it. In fact, I managed a lot better because I didn't spend the whole night before stressing out about it.
Don't worry. You'll be a whole lot better off.

People shouldn't have to worry about where their next drink could come from. Will you donate today?
