Jesus Says, One Day at a Time
And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side… Matthew 14:22
In order to move forward, you’ve got to take one step. Sometimes we make life harder by worrying about tomorrow before we have finished living today. Don’t worry about how it will work out; just trust in the One who called you to walk on water.
We don’t know what tomorrow will bring, but we know who holds tomorrow. We don’t know what the next step will look like, but we know Who is guiding our steps. God has given us today. Today is another opportunity to trust Him, to love someone, to encourage someone, to forgive, to pray, and to walk in obedience. Just take the next step with God. Jesus said in Matthew 6:34, “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things.”
Whatever tomorrow brings, God will be there.
So breathe.
Pray.
Trust.
Take the next step.
God is already in tomorrow. You can trust Him with today.
Prayer for today: Lord, thank You for giving me another day. Help me not to worry about what I cannot control or become overwhelmed by what has not happened yet. Give me grace to live fully in today, trusting You one step at a time. Help me to recognize Your blessings, follow Your direction, and rest in Your presence. I place tomorrow in Your hands and choose to trust You today. In Jesus’ name, Amen
