Previous Daily Devotional

We all have worries. Some of our worries are justified and some of our worries are not. Much of what we worried about in the past never came to be. Much of what has happened to us in the past was not seen by us and we did not worry about it. Most of us are not prophets. We look into the future with either hope or dread. Our view of the future is related to the choices we make in the here and now. When we are full of dread about the future, our dark view of the future can make our present time even worse than what we think our future will be. By our choice, we look at the future as a glass half empty or half full. When you worry and your worry begins to eat away at your heart and mind, you must remember God is bigger than your worry. God is bigger than your worry because your future is not dark at all when you see all things are in the palm of God’s hand. When you actively give God your future so He can work in your future, you can trust Him to work everything out to His glory. Many things can happen to you that hurt you. You can look at the future and think about these hurtful things of the past. However, when you look at the future, you must remember to look farther than normal. When you look far enough into your future, you can see your place on a new earth. When we look far enough into your future, you can see your place in Heaven. All of us rest in the palm of God’s hand. When you begin to worry, what you must always do is accept God’s hand surrounds you with His peace and love in the here and now so you need not worry about the future.
