DO NOT WORRY ABOUT TOMORROW, FOR TOMORROW WILL WORRY ABOUT ITSELF. EACH DAY HAS ENOUGH TROUBLE OF ITS OWN. MATTHEW 6:34 *NIV
Now I ask you, WHO OF YOU BY WORRYING CAN ADD A SINGLE HOUR TO HIS LIFE? MATTHEW 6:27 In fact, some studies even show that worry may actually shorten our life!
Therefore instead of worrying CAST ALL YOUR ANXIETY ON HIM BECAUSE HE CARES FOR YOU. 1 PETER 5:7 For then, WHEN YOU LIE DOWN, YOU WILL NOT BE AFRAID; WHEN YOU LIE DOWN YOUR SLEEP WILL BE SWEET. PROVERBS 3:24
After all what is worry anyway, but the opposite of faith! So, have faith and always turn your worries over to God! Then you will be able to say with confidence…..
“Why Worry About Tomorrow?”
Why worry about tomorrow
And the rising of the sun,
Of anguish over past mistakes
That cannot be undone?
Why waste life’s precious moments
On things that bruise the heart
When today is ours to fashion
Into a work of art?
Today comes but once, my friend,
It never can return–
So use it wisely while you can,
There’s a lesson you may learn.
Let history record the past
And tomorrow come what may.
Be content to do your best
With what you have today!

BE FAITHFUL, EVEN TO THE POINT OF DEATH, AND I WILL GIVE YOU THE CROWN OF LIFE. Revelation 2:10 *NIV
There are many times in this life when our faith is put to the test. Times that we may even feel that God has abandoned us because a prayer isn’t answered the way we want it to be. Know that it is written: THOUGH NOW FOR A LITTLE WHILE YOU MAY HAVE HAD TO SUFFER GRIEF IN ALL KINDS OF TRIALS. THESE HAVE COME SO THAT YOUR FAITH–OF GREATER WORTH THAN GOLD, WHICH PERISHES EVEN THOUGH REFINED BY FIRE–MAY PROVE GENUINE AND MAY RESULT IN PRAISE, GLORY AND HONOR WHEN JESUS CHRIST IS REVEALED. 1 Peter 1:6-7
Also know that sometimes what we pray for isn’t God’s will for us thus: THIS IS THE CONFIDENCE WE HAVE IN APPROACHING GOD: THAT IF WE ASK ANYTHING ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, HE HEARS US. 1 John 5:14-15
Sometimes what we pray for would actually hurt us in the long run, and our Heavenly Father is protecting us from that. Other times we just can’t understand God’s ways for NO ONE KNOWS THE THOUGHTS OF GOD EXCEPT THE SPIRIT OF GOD. 1 Corinthians 2:11
However, we do know He loves us very much, and would never abandoned us or deliberately hurt us. So we must keep our faith knowing that God is with us and that no matter what happens He is in control! Therefore it is important that WE WALK BY FAITH NOT BY SIGHT. ( 2 Corinthians 5:7 ) trusting that God knows what is best for us, even if a prayer isn’t answered the way we want it to be! Amen.
Have a wonderful day.

THE LORD IS MY LIGHT AND MY SALVATION–WHOM SHALL I FEAR? THE LORD IS THE STRONGHOLD OF MY LIFE—OF WHOM SHALL I BE AFRAID? PSALM 27:1 *NIV
Do not let the events of the World today, or the in the future, cause you any fear. For it is written: THE LORD HIMSELF GOES BEFORE YOU AND WILL BE WITH YOU; HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU OR FORSAKE YOU. DO NOT BE AFRAID; DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED. DEUTERONOMY 31:8
After all, IF YOU MAKE THE MOST HIGH YOUR DWELLING—EVEN THE LORD, WHO IS YOUR REFUGE—THEN NO HARM WILL BEFALL YOU, NO DISASTER WILL COME NEAR YOUR TENT. FOR HE WILL COMMAND HIS ANGELS CONCERNING YOU TO GUARD YOU IN ALL YOUR WAYS; THEY WILL LIFT YOU UP IN THEIR HANDS, SO THAT YOU DO NOT STRIKE YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE. PSALM 91:9-12
Therefore, HAVE NO FEAR OF SUDDEN DISASTER OR THE RUIN THAT OVERTAKES THE WICKED. For; THE LORD’S CURSE IS ON THE HOUSE OF THE WICKED, BUT HE BLESSES THE HOME OF THE RIGHTEOUS. PROVERBS 3:25,33
So, BE STRONG AND COURAGEOUS. DO NOT BE AFRAID OR TERRIFIED BECAUSE OF THEM, FOR THE LORD YOUR GOD GOES WITH YOU! Amen. DEUTERONOMY 31:6
Have a wonderful day.

BE STRONG AND OF GOOD COURAGE, DO NOT FEAR OR BE AFRAID OF THEM; FOR THE LORD YOUR GOD, HE IS THE ONE WHO GOES WITH YOU. HE WILL NOT LEAVE OR FORSAKE YOU. DEUTERONOMY 31:6 *NJKV
Those words were spoken by Moses to all the children of Israel.
The Prophet David wrote, IN GOD I HAVE PUT MY TRUST; I WILL NOT BE AFRAID. WHAT CAN MAN DO TO ME?” PSALM 56:11
Our Savior Jesus Christ said, AND LO, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, EVEN TO THE END OF THE AGE. MATTHEW 28:20
Those words are as true today as when they were spoken by Jesus, David and Moses! For our Heavenly Father is always with us, helping, guiding and protecting us as we walk the pathway of this life. With help like that why be fearful of the future or anything else?
Therefore as a child of God do not fear another person, place or thing! After all what is fear but the opposite of faith! So put all of your faith in God and you will be able to say, “I SOUGHT THE LORD, AND HE HEARD ME, AND DELIVERED ME FROM MY FEARS.” Amen. PSALM 34:4
Have a wonderful day, and may God Bless You!

GRACE TO YOU AND PEACE FROM GOD THE FATHER AND OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, WHO GAVE HIM-SELF FOR OUR SINS, THAT HE MIGHT DELIVER US FROM THIS PRESENT EVIL AGE.. GALATIANS 1:3-4 *NKJV
As you know, no one knows what the future holds for them, but the Children of God may have peace of mind! Our Heavenly Father has great plans for our future, not only on Earth, but in Heaven as well! For; IT IS WRITTEN: EYE HAS NOT SEEN, NOR EAR HEARD, NOR HAVE ENTERED INTO THE HEART OF MAN THE THINGS WHICH GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM. 1 CORINTHIANS 2:9
Therefore we have no reason to fear the future, for with God in charge, there is no need to worry about anything! For in this life when we have heartache and woe, He is always there to comfort and guide us, and in our next life, we will live with him in Paradise forever!
No, we cannot imagine all of the wonderful things that God has planned for our future, but one thing that we may count on is that the best is yet to come! “FOR I KNOW THE THOUGHTS THAT I THINK TOWARD YOU,” SAYS THE LORD, “THOUGHTS OF PEACE AND NOT OF EVIL, TO GIVE YOU A FUTURE AND A HOPE. ” JEREMIAH 29:11
Therefore “THERE IS HOPE IN YOUR FUTURE,” SAYS THE LORD! JEREMIAH 31:17
So have a wonderful day, and may God’s Great Love, Hope and Faith, fill your heart and mind, and may THE PEACE OF GOD, WHICH SURPASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING, GUARD YOUR HEART AND MIND THROUGH JESUS CHRIST. PHILIPPIANS 4:7 Amen!
