American clergyman Edward Everett Hale observed, "Some people bear three kinds of trouble- the ones they've had, the ones they have, and the ones they expect to have." How true, But a better strategy for you is this: accept the past, live in the present, and place the future in God's capable hands.
As you face challenges of everyday life, you may be comforted by this fact: Trouble, of every kind, is temporary. Yet God's grace is eternal. And worries, of every kind, are temporary. But God's love is everlasting. The troubles that concern you will pass. God remains. And with these thoughts in mind, it's now time for you to place today's troubles in their proper perspective.
Reflect on This:
Worry and anxiety are sand in the machinery of life; faith is the oil. -E. Stanley Jones
