Okay, no huge revelations, just a whole lot less mental stress. When I start down that mental path of mind boggling trying to figure out the future, including just the next 1/2 day I’m reminding myself to stop. I think about the fact that “God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8 God loves me. He loved me long before I loved Him. If He truly loves me like that and He does, then what do I have have to worry about. He’s in charge. He has a plan for me (and you). My job is to love Him with all I’ve got. Then I’m to love those around me.
So when I start to spin around all the “what if’s” in my mind I remember He loves me, really LOVES me. God will be with me whatever the circumstances. That is enough. A pastor/author I like said, “for this I have Jesus” as different situations presented themselves in his day. I like that. So as I head off to work today I’m thinking “for this day I have Jesus.” What more could I need?
