So Much Left to Do

With less than two weeks till we move there seems to be so much left to do. It would be very easy to become overwhelmed by all the things left to do. It is times like this that I am reminded of the words of Jesus as recorded in Matthew 6:34, "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."

Jesus knows that we have the tendency to focus the to do list that we have that we become paralyzed at the moment. We worry and stress out about the things a head rather than taking care of the here and now. Jesus wants to remind us that God knows all our needs and tells us not to stress out about things.

His answer is simple, seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be given to you. Could it really be that simple? Yes! It can.

Jeremiah 29:11 says, "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." God has such great plans for your life, don't get yourself all worked up just because you don't have all the details.
