"So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." - Matthew 6:34
Dear Dreamer,
The Bible does not say, "You should not worry about tomorrow." It says, "Do not worry about tomorrow," and "Each day has enough trouble of its own." Think about that. It is so true. What can we do about tomorrow until tomorrow comes? Yes, we should plan, we should have goals, and we should strive to achieve things in our future, but we have to stop worrying about it so much. We don't even know if the next hour will ever come, so why do we worry so much about what lies ahead rather than what we have right now.
This is what I am learning Dreamer; to focus on today. Today. Not tomorrow, not yesterday, but today. Today is what is important now, what matters now. Today is what affects tomorrow and the next day, so just think about today, and let tomorrow come in its time. Dreamer, I'm not strong enough. When I think about tomorrow and the next day and the next day, I'm not strong enough. I can't handle the worries or the endurance or the perseverance to keep running the race and fighting the fight. I'm not strong enough. So Jesus tells me, focus on today. Today.
Dreamer, today is what you have. Today is what matters. How will you live today? Today Dreamer, that is all you have. You think you have tomorrow, but you only have it when it becomes today. So how will you live today? How will you make your life something different, something special, a pleasing sacrifice to Jesus. How will you let your life be honoring to God, today?
Because Dreamer, tomorrow is never promised. All that we have, is now.
May the Lord bless you and keep you and make the light of His face shine upon you and give you peace! God bless you Dreamer!!!

P.S. Here are my two swans that pose for all my pictures (yes these are two different swans), and then some levitating objects that I stumbled upon that really caught me off guard. Good thing I had my camera! Oh, and also some cool purple flowers :)
And then boom, here was my gorgeous sunset. Thankful for this. "Be still and know that I am God."
