I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye. —Psalm 32:8 nasb A great passage for me. God will guide me in the way I should go. I always have to remember to follow Him and He will guide my path. This is easy to read, but sometimes so very hard to follow.Being a planner, I naturally start looking ahead and putting a plan together. But every time I think I have the plan figured out, God stops me and says not yet. He has a plan for me, but He is not ready to reveal it yet. It can be so very hard to be patient and take each day one step at a time.Yet when you don’t worry about tomorrow it is amazing how much peace and contentment you can have for today. Instead of rushing through each day to see what comes next, enjoy each day with what it has to offer. The people you will meet and interact with, the nature that you can enjoy and the time you can spend listening and sharing with God.
As it says in Matthew 6:25 – 34:“That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing? Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are? Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? “And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith? “So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. “So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today. (Matthew 6:25-34 NLT)
