Giving…to be seen by menPraying…to be seen by menFasting…to be seen by men
Giving…Father will reward youPraying…Father will reward youFasting…Father will reward you

Reward- to gain what is already Yours in ChristThat which is lost by Giving, Praying, FastingTo be seen by men
Some made their livingBy doing these thingsGiving= Trust God! Praying= Trust God! Fasting= Trust God!
Quit trying to controlThe outcome and instead Trust that God will Meet your needs
Don't lay up treasures on earth…You can't serve God and money
When a believer lives out of his or her identity, there's peace and a changed life
“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?
God provided lifeGod provided a bodyDo you really thinkGod can't provide the rest?
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?
Do you really thinkGod cares more for birdsThan for people madeIn his image?
And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?Do you not knowJust how little control you have?
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these
But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?
For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all
Butseek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to youRepetition: continually add
Either I trustOr I try to figure outHow to get my own needs metAn forfeit what's mineIn Christ
If then you have been raised with Christ, seekthe things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of GodRun after as a primary concern
Live out of who you areRun after Eternal Things:Love, serving, sharing, becomingFollowing, worshiping, forgiving
