Worry accomplishes nothing good for our health and God’s glory. Worry often accompanies events that never affect us. Worry is often associated with the “what if” situations in the future. Beloved, trust God’s goodness and invest your energies in that which is more productive. Tomorrow will care for itself, but each day is filled with enough temptations and spiritual tests and opportunities to serve others and pray to keep us busy. Be thankful for the day that God has made, deal with the daily matters God has placed before you, find true peace that transcends the real pain that comes from living in a fallen world and then live each day, one day at a time.
