Meditate On
Through the Lord's mercies we are not
consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great
is Your faithfulness.
Lamentations 3:22–23
Live
In The Now
Live in the now. Don’t live in the future
by asking, “What if…” and don’t live in the past by saying, “If only…” Don’t
waste your present moments. If you’re spending time with a loved one, enjoy the
moment. Don’t worry about that project deadline.
“Pastor Prince, if I don’t worry, then I’m
not being responsible.”
Well, let’s look at your idea of
“responsibility.” If you’re worried now about next week’s responsibility as you
spend time with your loved one, your loved one will not get the best of you
because you are there physically but mentally, you are miles away! Secondly,
when next week comes, your worrying won’t put you in a good state of mind to
handle that responsibility well.
Beloved, to believe that by worrying you
are being responsible is to believe a lie from the enemy! Jesus wants you worry
free, anxiety free and carefree—every day (Matthew 6:25–34, Philippians 4:6–7,
1 Peter 5:7)! Why? Because He is there to supply you with whatever you need. Do
what you need to do, but refuse to worry and live each day like a child. Live
in the now, enjoying every precious moment you’ve been given because you have a
faithful heavenly Father who will take good care of you!
