Earthly Anxiety or Heaven's Joy

Proper 20

Does watching the news or reading the paper produce a certain level of anxiety or restlessness?  What if there was something that would bring comfort instead, exchange peace for fear, and hope for hopelessness?  Well, there is.  Our Gospel lesson today reveals that Jesus provides the answers we seek and the direction we need to find the freedom in life we are intended to live.

Collect for the Day:
Grant us, Lord, not to be anxious about earthly things, but to love things heavenly; and even now, while we are placed among things that are passing away, to hold fast to those that shall endure; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
