One Hour At A Time

A man's store was destroyed by fire. And to make matters worse, he had failed to renew his fire insurance...An old friend asked how he was coping with the shocking loss..."I'm getting along just fine," he said. "I had breakfast this morning, and it isn't time to eat again"...Not only was he taking one day at a time, he was also taking one hour at a time...

Jesus doesn't want us to be burdened with the needless weight of anxiety about the future...We must refuse to fret about the things over which we have no control. Then we can rejoice in God's sustaining grace - one day at at time.

"Do not worry about tomorrow...Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." Matthew 6:34
