Do Not Worry
22 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. 23 For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. 24 Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! 25 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life[a]? 26 Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?Only through faith can this worry be dealt with because we place our trust in God.No matter what,God povide therefore it is pointless to worry right? it serves no help.However! God will fulfills our needs BUT not necessarily our desires!

Philippians 2:5-11
New International Version (NIV)
6 Who, being in very nature[a] God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!

9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.

In summary,we should serve without feeling obliged to do so and do it with love.We should be humble when placed with authority and obey.We should also strive hard to be like Jesus for he is the only righteous one!

1 Corinthians 3:1-3
New International Version (NIV)
The Church and Its Leaders
3 Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit but as people who are still worldly—mere infants in Christ. 2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready.Jesus gave the Corinthians milk instead of solid food because he felt that they were not ready.It is the same for us,God does not throw you a problem to make your life worse but to grow you! he will only place apon more task if he feels you are ready.This means in order to do more Godly things,one must adhere to the word otherwise how can we be ready?
