When life gets difficult, trust in God and don't worry unnecessarily about tomorrow, Pope Francis said.
"Trusting in him doesn't magically solve problems, but it allows for facing them with the right spirit -- courageously," he said before praying the Angelus with those gathered in St Peter's Square on February 26.
"I am brave because I trust in my father who cares for everything and loves me very much."
The Pope's reflection looked at the day's Gospel reading (Mt 6:24-34) in which Jesus tells his disciples to "not worry about your life," what to wear and what to eat. Instead, look at how God provides for the wild flowers and animals, and learn from them that worrying will not "add a single moment to your life-span," the passage reads.
