Flowers of the Field

August 10, 2025

Book: Matthew

In this sermon, Pastor Roy dives into Matthew 6:25-34, where Jesus teaches us about the futility of worry and the importance of faith. Through relatable anecdotes and personal reflections, the sermon emphasizes God’s care and provision for us, even more than He does for the birds and the flowers. We explore how our anxieties often stem from concerns about how others perceive us and our own self-worth, and how shifting our focus to God’s kingdom and righteousness can bring peace and gratitude. Join us as we learn to trust in God’s plan and provision.
