Fresh Bread - Daily


Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. (Matthew 6:34)

 

Big prayers this morning for someone needing to turn more focus onto God and His character and to believe God is truly wonderful in seeing us through every size of challenge. We all need to believe in God’s divine plan and control and be willing to go through the storm with Him. Walking in the dark with Jesus is still better than standing in the light all alone without His power, His love and His grace. We need to know that we can get through whatever the case may be – because of God’s holy Presence with us.

 

Each day has its own worries and needs – so that we’ll need the Lord each day. Some bread daily. Some Jesus daily. Worrying about the future does not bring any peace at all. It just makes today harder than it needs to be. No wonder we feel tired, hopeless and overwhelmed. We were only meant to deal with the issues of the present day – and by deal, I mean look to God and trust in all-wise, all-loving involvement. If we worry extra today, if we take on tomorrow’s potential problems, does that mean we will not worry at all tomorrow? Has that ever really worked? No. We just make ourselves more miserable than we need to be.


The Lord’s Prayer calls for daily bread. Bread that sustains us throughout the day. Sustains us through the very challenges of the present day. Like the manna … delivered every day. Like mercies, new every morning. (Lamentations 3:23) Every day Jesus comes. Every day our help is near. Truly the Bread of Life He is. Every day. Fresh Bread.
