Matthew 6:31-34
“So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’
or ‘What shall we drink?‘
or ‘What shall we wear?’
For the pagans run after all these things,
and your Heavenly Father knows that you need them.
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness,
and all these things will be given to you as well.
Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow,
for tomorrow will worry about itself.
Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
In today’s Mornings with Jesus devotional
from Guideposts,
Isabella Yosuico wrote,
“I seek Jesus’ direction…
I am struggling to keep an open mind
and follow where He leads…”
Isabella went on to say that having faith means
“… prayerfully doing what I can today
and recognizing what I cannot do.”
Isabella encouraged her readers to
“… stay in the present day,
entrusting uncertainties to Christ.”
There is such comfort
in the knowledge
that Jesus Christ
prays with me.
He is my Confidante.
He is my Rock.
He is my Guide.
I have no reason to worry.
Me, Worry?
No way!!
It is easy to obsess
Over the condition of this earth,
But God is in control,
And He knows the planet’s worth.
He holds it in His palm
And knows its every leaf.
In the eyes of our Lord,
This pandemic’s really brief!
All the world
Is holding its breath –
Some behind masks,
Some behind fear,
Some behind doors,
Afraid to come near.
Breathe in Peace.
Experience a patch
Of stillness,
Kindness, and
Presence.
Each waking day.
Carry it with you.
“… do not worry about tomorrow,
for tomorrow will worry about itself.
Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
See ya tomorrow.
Hugs,
JanBeek

There is so much fear and worry in the world. As you write Jan, we can take all of these burdens to the Lord. He doesn’t mind the heavy load. Amen.
