Today’s Scripture is Matthew 6:34:
“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
In this verse, Jesus teaches us about the importance of focusing on the present. He reminds us that each day carries its own set of challenges and opportunities. Worrying about the future only diminishes our strength to handle today. Corrie Ten Boom wisely said, “Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.” This profound statement highlights the essence of Jesus’ message: to live fully today, embracing the moments as they come without being burdened by future uncertainties.
By concentrating on today, we allow ourselves to give our best to the tasks and relationships at hand. Each day is a gift, complete with its own provisions and joys, and when we trust in this daily sufficiency, we find peace and contentment. Jesus’ teaching encourages us not only to live more fully but to trust more deeply in the provision of each day as it comes, without borrowing trouble from tomorrow.
When we get to tomorrow, we will find that God is already there and waiting for us.
