“Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you.” 1 Peter 5:7
In the last few months this verse has sustained me and guided me. I have come to comprehend that worry is completely useless. When we worry we bring tomorrow’s difficulties into today. God gives us grace for today, not for what happened yesterday.
I once heard that, “When we reach into tomorrow’s problems, we overload today’s circuits.” Worry doesn’t take the sorrow out of tomorrow. It takes the strength out of today. When we meet tomorrow we are out of breath because we already overloaded today.
Adrian Rogers once said: “Yesterday, is just a canceled check. Tomorrow is a promissory note. Today has all the cash you can handle. Spend it wisely.”
So let us face each day at school, at home and at church with an extra portion of hope for the day. When the issues come up, don’t recount the
past mistakes.
We can have complete confidence that when we put our concerns at the Throne of Almighty God trusting Him to provide, He will!
