Perspective

I am trying to be diligent, faithful with a little. What Doug Wilson says here needs to be kept in mind. But I dont think this means we should just head off to the movies everynight.......

The World is not God's Hat on a Windy Day
....This means that we may trust Him for His provision. Biblically understood, few doctrines are sweeter than this one. "Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows" (Matt. 10:29-31). Jesus does not teach us to simply refrain from fear. That sort of "stiff upper lip" Stoicism is not Christian. He says do not fear therefore. When we as Christians refrain from anxiety, we are to do so from a doctrinal base. That foundation is a full confidence in the providence of God. Christ reasons from the Father's providence over things which are trivial to us. And if this is the case, then how much more should be we confident that He watches over us in every respect? And if this is the case, then how can we fall into the worries of "little-faith"?....
