“Stop stressing over everything. Instead, pray about it, keep it real with God, and don’t forget to be grateful. When you do that, God’s peace—something way beyond human understanding—will guard your heart and mind through Jesus.”
Philippians 4:6-7 · Gen Z BibleSee OG Version

“Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” (1 Peter 5:7, KJV)
“Yo, stop stressing about what you're gonna eat, drink, or wear. Life is about more than just food and clothes. Look at the birds—they’re not out here grinding, but God still feeds them. And aren’t you worth more than a bird? Worrying won’t add an inch to your height. Look at the flowers—they don’t work for their glow-up, but even King Solomon wasn’t as dripped out as them. If God takes care of grass that’s here today and gone tomorrow, don’t you think He’s got you too? So stop freaking out about food, drinks, and outfits—that’s what people without faith chase after. God already knows what you need. Instead, focus on God’s kingdom and doing right, and everything else will come through. And don’t stress about tomorrow—tomorrow’s got its own problems. Just take life one day at a time.”
Matthew 6:25-34 · Gen Z BibleSee OG Version
“Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.” (Matthew 6:25-34, KJV)
