Give your worries to the Lord, and He will take care of you. He will never let good people down.
PSALM 55:22 NCV
"Because life is sometimes difficult, and because we have understandable fear about the uncertainty of the future, we worry. At times, we may find ourselves fretting over the countless details of everyday life. We may worry about our relationships, our finances, our health, or any number of potential problems, some large and some small.
If you're a "worrier" by nature, it's probably time to rethink the way that you think! Perhaps you've formed an unfortunate habit of focusing too intently on negative aspects of life while spending too little time counting your blessings. If so, take your worries to God ...and leave them there. When you do, you'll learn to worry a little less and to trust God a little more - and that's as it should be because God is trustworthy, you are protected, and your future can be intensly bright." p88
"Things can be difficult for us, but nothing is too hard for Him." - CHARLES STANLEY p89
"Today is mine. Tomorrow is none of my business. If I peer anxiously into the fog of the future, I will strain my spiritual eyes so that I will not see clearly what is required of me now" - ELISABETH ELLIOT p89
TODAY'S PRAYER
Lord, You sent Your Son to live as a man on this earth, and You know what it means to be completely human. You understand my worries and my fears, Lord, and You forgive me when I am weak. When my faith begins to wane, help me, Lord, to trust You more. Then, with Your Holy Word on my lips and with the love of Your Son in my heart, let me live courageously, faithfully, prayerfully, and thankfully today and every day. Amen
