So
Don't Worry About Tomorrow,
For
Tomorrow Will Bring Its Own Worries.
Today's
Trouble Is Enough For Today.
Scripture
25 “That
is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have
enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more
than food, and your body more than clothing?
26 Look at
the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for
your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable
to him than they are?
34 “So
don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own
worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.
Observation
Amen!
Today's trouble is enough for today. Let's take this crisis one day
at a time! Matthew 6 is one of my go to passages when I catch myself
worrying about something.
Today,
it just happened to be part of my daily Bible reading! But it comes
at a perfect time for me and maybe if you take time to read Matthew 6
today it will help you too!
We
are told in the Scriptures not to worry. We have a Heavenly Father
who wants to take care of us. He wants us to trust and put our faith
in Him to take care of whatever we need. When we worry it is evidence
that we are not putting our faith and trust in Him.
Here
are a few of my other favorite verses that come to my mind when I
start to worry about something:
Philippians
4:6-7
6 Don’t
worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what
you need, and thank him for all he has done.
7 Then
you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can
understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in
Christ Jesus.
1
Peter 5:7
7 Give
all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.
Psalm
55:22
22 Give your
burdens to the Lord,
and he will take care of you.
He will not permit the godly to slip and fall.
and he will take care of you.
He will not permit the godly to slip and fall.
Isaiah
26:3
Application
Whenever
I start to worry … I will stop and I will pray. I will hold on
tightly to all of God's Promises.
How
about you? Worry or Trust … the choice is ours to make!
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, I know what You want us to do during this crisis. You want us
to look up. You want us to call on You. Blaming other people won't
help us. Blaming our government or some other government won't help
us. Our only hope is in You. None of this could have happened without
Your permission. And I know that You could stop this virus today if
You wanted to do so. You are All-Powerful. Nothing is too hard for
You. Help our nation to turn to You and help us cry out to You for
help! You have my attention!
I
pray for any friend today that might be worried about their life.
Help them to put their trust in You!
