Yesterday is history, tomorrow is yet to be; today is all we really have. No one knows what will happen today, either good or bad. But, if we just take today as it comes, there really is no problem. When I saw this little picture today, I almost didn’t use it because it was so small, but then I realized that the size was not nearly as important as the message. “Today is full of Possible” is a great message for us all. Regardless of actually does happen today, I am not going to waste my time worrying about it, because Jesus said:
Matthew 6 ( English Majority Text Version )
[24] "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one, and he will love the other, or else he will be devoted to the one, and he will despise the other. You cannot serve God and money.
[25] "Because of this I say to you, do not worry about your life—what you shall eat, or what you shall drink—nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?
[26] Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap, nor do they gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth more than they?
[27] And which of you by worrying is able to add one cubit to his height?
[28] So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither labor, nor spin;
[29] and yet I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed like one of these.
[30] But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today, and tomorrow is cast into the oven,will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
[31] Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we put on?'
[32] "For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
[33] But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
[34] Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own affairs. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
[26] Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap, nor do they gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth more than they?
[27] And which of you by worrying is able to add one cubit to his height?
[28] So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they neither labor, nor spin;
[29] and yet I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory was arrayed like one of these.
[30] But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today, and tomorrow is cast into the oven,will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
[31] Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we put on?'
[32] "For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.
[33] But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
[34] Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own affairs. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Christians have it great; we serve a great God who really, really loves us. We are never alone, because he is always there to listen to our prayers. How many times have you ever seen Christians begging for food or clothing? Christians may not have fancy food or clothing, but I can say from experience that even during the worst of times – there has always been something to eat and something to wear. But, even if I should die in the next moment, I still have a home in heaven that will last forever. Now, that is one great possibility! So, today, I intend to continue to seek after God and the righteousness which HE supplies (vs. 33, above) and everything will be fine.
