Today's news and headlines stuff us with warnings and debates about the need for and value of insurance. If we hear about health insurance or "Obamacare" again, we might want to scream. Today's Gospel about the lilies of the field and the birds of the air, along with the old Gospel Hymn, Blessed Assurance, remind us that our true insurance is in Jesus. "Can any of you by worrying add a single moment to your life-span?" (Mt 6: 27). "If God so clothes the grass of the field, which grows today and is thrown into the oven tomorrow, will he not much more provide for you, O you of little faith?" (Mt 6: 30). Let these words of Jesus calm our anxieties as we continue with this day and its unforeseen surprises.
