Deal With Today


"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." (Matthew 6:34)

With these words of commonsense wisdom, Jesus reduces our responsibilities to those of today … and today only. He forces our focus from the panorama view of the mountain range of all our tomorrows … to the single mountain of today. You see, today is all Christ asks us to cope with. And today is something Christ knows we—with His help—can indeed manage. His words give us hope, and they give us focus. Matthew 6:34 includes Christ’s formula for winning over worry. It consists of His …

CommandDo not worry about tomorrow,

InsightTomorrow will worry about its own things, and

Challenge for you todaySufficient for the day is its own trouble.

Dear friend, Jesus calls us away from worrying about tomorrow (a major contributor to stress) and to addressing the reality of today. His job assignment for you can be boiled down to three words: “Deal with today!”

One Minute with The Women of The Bible will help you learn how God has comforted, helped, and provided for the women in the Bible. You’ll grow more and more aware of His amazing love for you.
