Tomorrow

"But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.  So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself.  Each day has enough trouble of its own." -Matthew 6:33-34 (NASB)

I have recently been spending more time than usual at the nature center where I volunteer.  One of the buildings has been closed for several years as renovations have been completed and a small group of volunteers has worked to build new exhibits that will attract visitors and educate people about the environment around us.  As the grand re-opening date gets closer and closer, it is easy to become overwhelmed with all that we have left to get ready for the day.  Our lives can sometimes feel the same way.  Deadlines, obligations, and other such things always seem to be looming over us.

Jesus reminds us that we will always have things to do, but we shouldn't get discouraged.  As we live life, we should focus on God's kingdom and God's plan for our lives.  If we are focused on God and His power in our lives, then we can be assured that each day - today, tomorrow, and all the days the follow - will be taken care of for us.  As we talk to God and listen to His reply, we will know the pathway that we are to follow to let each day take care of itself!

Don't worry.  Seek God's kingdom and allow Him to take care of you today, tomorrow, and forever!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for loving me and for telling me that today, tomorrow, and forever will be taken care of by Your power, grace, and mercy.  Help me to live assured that each day will take care of itself because of You.  In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
