'Do not worry about tomorrow'

'Be still and know that I am God'

I've been feeling very stressed today and God has given me peace reminding these verses:

'Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own'. (Matthew 6:34)

'Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light'. (Matthew 11:28-30)

I'm amazed at the grace of our God, at His mercy and patience. He teaches us day to day and waits for us to learn our lessons. He forgives us each time we fail to learn and always gives a chance to start all over again.

He's been teaching me to trust Him. I'm not a very good student, but He's a good teacher. :) I praise Him for that.



Today I pray for the souls that are feeling uneasy and the hearts that are burdened. I pray that 'the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard ... hearts and ... minds in Christ Jesus.' (Philippians 4:7)

Psalm 121

Psalm 121

A song of ascents.
1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?

2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;

4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;

8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
