Just for Today

Do you ever feel overwhelmed? Perhaps a better question is, “When haven’t you felt overwhelmed?” Life can seem like a hurricane that comes crashing into our lives with a force that threatens to destroy us. We are besieged with demands on our time, the stress of our job, the needs of our family, and the desire to succeed. We come to the end of a week and we realize that we have not really had time to celebrate each day that the Lord gave us.

Jesus tells us: “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” (Matthew 6:34 NIV)

We must learn to celebrate TODAY!

Just for today:
I will lift my eyes toward Him and seek to tell Him of my love for Him.

Just for today:
I will lay my questions down at His feet and leave them there.

Just for today:
I will express my praise for Him. I will rejoice in who He is!

Just for today:
I will listen for His still small voice. His Spirit will speak: “This is the way, walk in it.”

Just for today:
I will place tomorrow in His hands and refuse to worry. Then when tomorrow comes, behold, it is another TODAY!
