2022 - Tomorrow! Ready or not, here we go.
Do you have anxiety or fear about the days ahead?
I’ve been thinking about approaching the new year to come. The BEST thing we can do is listen to what Jesus had to say about it. It was a word for then AND now!
Matthew 6:34 “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
This text is a part of what is known as Jesus’ “sermon on the mount.” He is teaching His disciples and His listeners who have also gathered to hear Him.
Anxiety, worry, fear, distress, agitation, tension, irritability are all common feelings and emotions that attempt to mentally affect our decision makings on a daily basis.
Jesus tells us in this text “do not worry about tomorrow.” Do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow. He does not want us making decisions based on fear of the future, which we have no control over. He wants the direction of our life built on and continued on an eternal perspective from eternal truths found in The Bible rather than temporal things of earth.
Take no thought about tomorrow! Every day has enough troubles of its own, so let your focus be on enjoying the day you have today. Jesus reminds us that the goal here is to take one day at a time.
