Do You Worry About Tomorrow?
Do you worry about what tomorrow may bring? Many people forfeit the peace of today by worrying what tomorrow holds in store for them. We must live one day at a time. We can certainly pray about tomorrow and have great hopes for tomorrow, but we can't live in it.
With God's wisdom for our mind and his grace for our hearts, we can face the problems of one day at a time. It has well been said that it is not the burdens of today that drive may people to destruction, but it is the failures of yesterday and the fear of tomorrow that drives them over the edge.
Have you failed in the yesterdays of your life? If so, confess it to God if you have not done so. If you've repented and given it to the Lord, leave it behind. Do you have a fear of tomorrow? Commit it to God and He will give you a peace that passes understanding as you lean upon Him.
We can leave all our burdens with the Lord. This includes our failures, fears, and even the future. God will undo all the things in our lives that may seem tangled. Only He can solve all of life's many problems and meet our every need.
Trusting in the Lord helps us make it through all the trials and the temptations of this life. If we trust and never doubt, He will surely bring us out. As the words to the old hymn tell us, "Take your burdens to the Lord and leave them there." Where else can we really go to have our burdens removed except to the Lord?
Blessings In Christ,
