Trusting for Today Instead of Troubling for Tomorrow Sample

It’s easy to set expectations for our future and think “one day” everything is going to look different. As Christians, we can enter into God’s joy now and embrace His fullness of life now, rather than waiting until things seem more ideal or picturesque. If we’re always waiting for the future, we can miss the joy and satisfaction God has already given for our day-to-day.  

Even as we anticipate the future and attempt to give our very best, there can be undiagnosed physical issues that are rooted in stress and anxiety within us. We need to be able to recognize quickly when we are experiencing distress and change our direction away from behavior that’s affecting us. We must turn to the words of Jesus in the waiting and in the anticipation of what’s ahead. We must aim to become more like Christ now and on the way to where He’s leading us.
