Meditating on Matthew 6:34 (8.28.17)

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). Maybe you are worried about a loved one, a reply from a doctor, or waiting to hear if you have gotten a job you applied for. It really does not matter what the situation is, many of us have been anxious about things we could do nothing about.

        

Jesus tells us not to be anxious about the things that could happen, because chances are there might not be anything we can do about it. He tells us that we can't change anything about our life without Him. Jesus said our Heavenly Father knows what we need.

We spend a lot of time being anxious about tomorrow,
     while forgetting about enjoying today.
We are on this earth to have fellowship with Jesus, but if our minds
     are occupied with worrying about things, we lose the opportunity
     to enjoy our life as GOD intended. 

        

Beloved, dwell on the things of GOD and trust Him to work all things out for you. He is concerned about everything that affects your life. He knows our strengths and our weakness. He will continue to make you strong where you are weak, and He will continue to make you stronger where you are strong.

       

Look at each day as a gift from Him to be blessed and to be a blessing to someone. 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 about ourselves
     and concentrate on helping others.
GOD is good and He wants us to experience His goodness every day. 
Be determined not to allow anxiousness to steal the day
     the Lord has made for you to enjoy. 

     

Have a blessed day in the Lord!
