The importance of dealing with today, not yesterday or tomorrow. God is speaking to us today.

In life, we live each day trying to do what’s needed or we think about what’s happening in our lives and get stressed or distracted. It’s all a choice and I’m going to break it down as to why we need to use wisdom in order to continue to do what’s needed so that we can serve, have joy and be happy on our journey.
​
We are not perfect but we learn and grow.  We don’t have all of the answers to everything and this is why we make mistakes and have to suffer consequences.  Some mistakes are just a lesson to learn but some there are consequences that we have to deal with in life.  As we get older and learn wisdom, we learn to not make the same mistakes but sometimes habits are formed and it’s harder to get rid of some behaviors. This shouldn’t stop us either because we just need to take one day at a time to deal with our habits and get the help needed to make our lives better. I  know it’s not easy but if we focus on the day only, it will get better.

Each day is an opportunity to look at our lives to just do what we can when we can and let God do the rest. We shouldn’t worry about yesterday or tomorrow but deal with what’s in front of us today.  God is the one that awakens us to have another day, He’s the one who’s with us throughout the day and He’s the one that helps us to sleep at night so why worry, why get stressed and why allow someone or something to distract us from being happy, serving God and having joy on our journey.

The bad things that happen in our lives are sometimes not so bad, especially when it’s out of our control.  Why are we getting stressed from things that happened out of our control? When things happen that’s not in our control, God is definitely working and moving us to something better. We just have to trust Him and hold on to our faith.  God is in control of everything.  He knows what’s going to happen before it happens so let’s continue to allow Him to work in our lives and when we get stressed, talk to God because He will take care of our burdens.

All I’m saying is let’s be positive about life, choose to take whatever comes our way, roll with the punches and keep it going. God will show us what He’s doing in our lives and give us joy through it all.  Life is a precious gift and when we learn how to walk with the cross, have faith and trust Him through all things, we will gain peace each day and have joy giving hope to the world.
 
Amen and Thank You Lord.
