Be Determined to Dwell on the Things of God & Trust Him to Work All Things Out for Our Good (11.17.16)

Therefore do not be anxious for tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. - Matthew 6: 34 

Faith Believers,
Many of us have spent restless hours being anxious about tomorrow (I know I am guilty of this). It might have been worrying about a loved one, a reply from a doctor, or waiting to hear if we have gotten a job. It really does not matter what the situation was, many of us have been anxious about things we could do nothing about.        

Jesus tells us not to be anxious about things that could happen, because there may be nothing we can do about the situation. He tells us that we cannot change our statue, nor change the length of our life. He said our Heavenly Father knows what we need. We spend so much time being anxious about tomorrow, that we often forget about enjoying today. We are on the earth to have fellowship with Jesus, but if our mind is occupied on worrying about things, we lose the opportunity to enjoy our life that has been given to us for that day.

Let us determine to dwell on the things of GOD
   and trust Him to work all things out for us.
He is concerned about every thing that comes into our life.
He knows our strengths and our weakness.
He will continue to make us strong where we are weak,
   and will continue to make us stronger where we are strong.        

Let us look at each day as a gift from Him to be blessed and be a blessing.

Sometimes one of the best things we can do when we are filled with anxiousness is to ask the Lord to allow someone to cross our path that we may be a blessing to. When we bless others we often forget ourselves and concentrate on helping those who need our help. This not only takes our mind off ourselves, but it also allows us to do the will of GOD.  

GOD is good and He wants us to experience His goodness every day.
Let us be determined to embrace all He has for us.
Let us be determined not to allow anxiousness steal the day
  that the Lord has made for us to enjoy.
