‭‭Matthew‬ ‭6‬:‭33‬-‭34‬ ‭NIV‬ — But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Take a moment to think about our busy schedules. We often rush through the days and weeks, always planning for tomorrow. Then we feel guilty at the end of the day when all we did was rush from one activity to the next. Take a moment to think about how God feels when we miss the miracles and God Winks of today because we are too busy focusing on what tomorrow holds. Matthew instructs us to seek God and not worry about tomorrow. I know planning is essential for life but in the process of planning, I encourage us to not lose sight of what today holds.

Lori Deschene with Youth Dynamics said, “Peace is accepting today, releasing yesterday, and giving up the need to control tomorrow.” I pray that as we go about this week, we can all find peace in our busy schedules and take time to seek God for what each day holds.

Let’s pray. Dear God, thank You for all the blessings of today. I desire to seek You in the midst of all my planning this week. I seek to find Your peace. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
