Life throws enough at you, God has got you and them let God worry about them.

Verse 23

It was a misunderstanding of what Jesus said and people started spreading it so John had to set clarity.

A YOUNG boy one day went to a monk and said, “I have slandered my neighbor. What can I do?”

The monk said, “Take a feather and put it on every step in the neighborhood.”

And so the boy put out a couple of hundred feathers. He went back to the monk and said, “OK. Now what?”

“Now go pick them up.” But when the boy went to pick them up, most of them had been blown away by the wind, to which the monk said, “Once you gossip, it’s nearly impossible to stop it.”418
