25 “Therefore I tell you,
do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink,
nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the
body more than clothing? 26 Look
at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and
yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?
Matthew, Chapter 6
God provides for the needy.
He
meets needs for food, clothing and other necessities. However, Jesus reminds us
in this passage the life is more than food.
God provides through His people, who serve in His name.
Haven
of Rest Ministries has provided for the temporal needs of the less fortunate in
the Akron area for over 70 years. Since life is more than food, Haven also
ministers to the eternal needs of men, women and children. This CCC ministry
partner introduces people to the Gospel of Jesus Christ, Who is the Bread of
Life.
How can I be part of this?
