Black-Eyed Susan

Scripture

Matthew 6:33-34

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Observation

Black-eyed Susans are considered a symbol of encouragement and motivation, which can be attributed to the plant’s adaptability and widespread availability.

Application

Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew tells us not to worry about tomorrow, but there are other places in the bible that add don’t worry about anything. It says to be anxious for nothing and leave our worries with God. So, don’t worry about tomorrow, today, or yesterday! Take each moments trouble and hand them off to God. Learn from the Black-eyed Susan. Be adaptable and encourage and motivate others to carry on!

Prayer

Lord, it so easy for me to say don’t worry. Help me remember to take my own advice! ~Amen
