As I balanced my checkbook, my neck and shoulders compounded in tightness and tenseness as I neared coming closer and closer to a zero balance with each transaction.

My stomach knotted up. My head began to pound. I dreaded this activity more than anything. But it had to be done. 

That was a common situation in my college days. Living from paycheck to paycheck with my meager part-time earnings. I actually felt ill through most of my time during college, and I think it was mostly due to the financial stress.

Sure my homework was stressful too, but my tight finances are what kept me feeling sick to my stomach. There’s just something about that need for food to eat and a warm place to sleep. 

Then one day it hit me. I needed to place more trust in God to provide for me. I remembered hearing about missionaries who went forth without purse or scrip… what!?

How does one trust God that thoroughly to provide for their needs!? And then I read about the lillies of the field and found it to be beautiful and comforting.

“Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment? 

“Behold the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not ye of much more value than they? 

“And which of you by being anxious can add one cubit unto the measure of his life? 

“And why are ye anxious concerning raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 

“Yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 

“But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?

“Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 

“For after all these things do the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 

“But seek ye first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 

“Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.” (Matthew 6:25–30)

Truly God cares for us and He always provides for us. I’ve noticed that everything always works out in the end, so why did I spend so many years ruining my quality of life by not trusting Him!? 

Even as I write this, it's a good reminder to me... because life still has it's ups and downs—and I know I can do better at trusting Him and allowing Him to guide me and bless my life.

If you're ready to let go of your financial stress, and/or stresses regarding anything related to things you need for your survival, there’s a dose of enlightenment below.
