Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Philippians 4:6"Most of the situations that entangle your mind are not today's concerns: you have borrowed them from tomorrow."(Jesus Calling, Sarah Young).
God gives us what we can handle when we can handle it. He promises that He will carry us through life's difficulties and get us through to safety. However, because we're human and pretty much retarded at times, we tend to worry about all sorts of things that aren't even supposed to be "worried" about....especially when you're worrying about them.
I say "you" very lightly since I am just as guilty of this as anyone else...maybe even more so! You have all heard me talk about my control issues and the fact that I must worry about things ahead of time so that I'm prepared for them later. Ya, I know - pathetic!
It's something to think about though. If we're living moment by moment, one day at a time, life would seem simpler. It would seem much more doable!
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:27
