The Father created us, the Son redeemed\n   us, the Holy Spirit creates the faith which accepts God's rich\n   grace, love, and mercy.  Therefore we pray:\n        O Lord, we implore You, let Your continual pity cleanse\n        and defend Your Church; and because she cannot continue\n        in safety without Your aid, preserve her evermore by\n        Your help and goodness.\n\n\n        The devil, the world, and our own sinful flesh conspire to\n   blind us to God's infinite mercy.  They would have us doubt His\n   goodness, His loving provision of all things we need to sustain\n   this body and life.  Yet Jesus reminds us:\n        Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ``What shall we\n        eat?'' or ``What shall we drink?'' or ``What shall we\n        wear?''  For the Gentiles seek after all these things,\n        and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.\n\n\n        As we worry about food and drink and clothing we lose the\n   joy of God's creation.  As we put all our effort into grasping\n   that which is temporal, we harm ourselves, our families, and our\n   neighbors.  That worry gains us nothing.\n\n        As we trust in God's goodness and mercy, we come to know\n   that He provides us all we need in this life, for He desires that\n   we live eternally with Him.\n\n        May our Lord grant that we trust in Him alone, that we love\n   the Creator above all things created.  Amen.\n<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September 17, 2026 Broadcast What, me worry? &#8211; Part 4 Matthew 6:31-32 09\/17\/2026 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, &#8220;What shall we eat?&#8221; or &#8220;What shall we drink?&#8221; or &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/2026\/09\/17\/what-me-worry-part-4\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;What, Me Worry? &#8211; Part 4&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5266","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2026"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5266","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5266"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5266\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5267,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5266\/revisions\/5267"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5266"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5266"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5266"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
