God is ever present with us. In fact He lives in the present, in the NOW. That
is why Jesus taught us to live one day at a time, for God is always in that day.
We are to rest in His will for us each day. Sometimes that is easier said than
done! We fidget, fuss, waver, grieve over yesterday, fret over tomorrow, and
allow our thoughts to rush around.
He said that we were to pray 'Thy will be
done on earth as it is in heaven'. I'm sure there is no panic, fear or
despondancy in heaven! God's will is done there. Have you got an agenda pressing
in on you? have things got to be done your way, because you think it is God's
way? let your agenda go! Leave the arrangement of each day and season to God. It
doesn't matter if things don't get done in your way and time. Stop pressurising
yourself and others, and God. Let yourself have some space and come into the
contentment that knowing the Lord can bring to you. Let His peace rule in your
heart. You can only live one day at a time, so determine to enjoy each moment as
it comes and rest in His will for your life. Only one pair of hands can hold the
reins!
'But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing
into this world, and it is cetain that we can carry nothing out'. 1 Tim 6:6
