In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus is calling us to look out and up! Anxiety tends to drag us in and down. We get lost in screens and thoughts that lead to fears. We spiral into doubt and despair. Jesus offers us the ultimate face lift! He does this in very concrete ways: 

“Look at the birds of the air …”

“Consider the lilies of the field …” 

And these simple, natural billboards point the way out of our tangled thoughts to our Father. 

When our eyes turn toward our Father, to pay attention to who he really is, what he provides, and what he is doing, the stronghold of anxiety and fear begins to melt. Something bigger, Someone bigger is inviting us in and up to himself, to a new way of living, Rising Above Anxiety.
