Matthew 6:25a
Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious...
Matthew 6:30
...O you of little faith
A lack of faith will cause us to be anxious. Don't take this as an instruction to try and whip up more faith in yourself. It's not so much the quality of your faith that matters but the thing/person you have faith in. Our faith will increase as we remind ourselves of the One who our faith is in
Worry: How am I going to make ends meet?
Faith: God cares for and provides for the birds, and I am more valuable to him than they are
Worry: What if I die?
Faith: God is in control of your survival and can be trusted.
Worry: How do other people see me?
Faith: God, the masterful creator, created you.
Worry: What about this? What about that?
Faith: Life is about more than this and that, it is about God.
