Soul Fire - Don't worry
29-Nov-2024
Peter W. Guess
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:34 (NIV)
What does this mean?
1. Jesus says I need to focus my energy on today.
2. Jesus says that we can then have energy and problem-solving ability when the new day comes.
3. Jesus says, we have enough problems and issues to deal with today - so let tomorrow go.
4. What about planned activity for say 1 month from today. Refer to point #1. Do today with as much energy. Tomorrow you pick up the project and focus on what you CAN do. Leave the rest and tomorrow you again do tomorrow's problems.
Of course, this is not easy - or even easy to understand - but it's what Jesus said as a remedy to worry and anxiety.
