Worry About Today

24No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.
25“That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life—whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn’t life more than food, and your body more than clothing? 26Look at the birds. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren’t you far more valuable to him than they are? 27Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?
28“And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing, 29yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. 30And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith?
31“So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ 32These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. 33Seek the Kingdom of Godd above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
34“So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today. Matthew 6

this is one of my favorite scriptures and gives great wisdom into how we can live in victory just by focusing on todays troubles, not yesterdays mistakes or tomorrows worries: today is enough for today. amen!

Make your plans each night for the next day and stick with those plans for your day that will help you make it and to achieve some goals. You can even make you a weekly goal and have weekly plans when it comes to meal planning and cleaning chores: i do but i'm flexible with whatever comes up today that those can easily change. I might have 3 chores to do today but because of a sick or difficult child only get one of those done but I will get that one done and crossed off my list leaving 2 to fit into the schedule on later days and that's okay, no need to stress or overburden yourself with unplanned cirucumstances- those happen in life,especially when you are trying to get yourself a job, or into college, and starting your life over or picking up the pieces but I hope you are getting a new puzzle taht want get you back in trouble and in prison- you might need to find a new place to start over until you can get yourself organized and together and then maybe live back around your family but most friends will need to go or you've found out have already gone that's just life.

This group is for ex-felons my ministry is woman in prison so that's the audience I'm writing to.
Most men are not worth your time. Take that to the cross and pray for God to provide you with a man that loves the Lord and is a God fearing man. If you are a woman after God's heart then this will be the best suitor for you.

So, remember to not worry about tomorrow, today holds enough worries for today.
