Alliance News Luke 12:22-28 And he said to his disciples, Therefore I say to you, Take no thought for your life, what you shall eat; neither for the body… There is no one who acts more unwisely than he that "borrows trouble." He that borrows money may invest it to great advantage. The borrower of a good book may be a great gainer by its study and perusal. But who gains by "borrowing trouble "? Is trouble so joyous and enriching that we shall be happier if we can only enjoy it a few days before it comes? Does it not withdraw the light of joy from our countenance? Does it not withdraw our thoughts from the present, and unfit us for its joys and pleasures? Where, then, is the wisdom of prophesying evil that we may "borrow trouble" from it? (Alliance News.) Parallel Verses KJV: And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. |
