Today's Daily Lesson comes from Matthew 6 verse 34:
"So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own. Today’s trouble is enough for today."
Jesus did not say don't worry; he just said don't worry about tomorrow.
By that I think he meant we are to be concerned, but only over the things which are within our reach.
What will Russia do? Where will our kids go to college? How will the market do next year? Will inflation continue to rise?
These are questions and worries we can't do much about right now.
So, let's take a deep breath, recognize the things that are within our control, and focus our time and energy there.
We can only take on so much. Let's not borrow trouble, but let today's worries be enough for today.
They're plenty, in fact.
