Live this day...

 

My prayer:

Mighty Father. I am beginning to realize that for possibly the first time in my life, I don't feel as though I am preparing for something, for anything. Each time I find myself worrying about tomorrow or wondering what the future holds, you seem to be saying that I need to focus on today and this moment. I need to experience this time. Tomorrow is not promised and you are taking care of it.

That is hard for me to do. I have spent my whole life preparing. Preparing for the next challenge, the next adventure. Always planning and preparing. Now, it is different and I wonder if maybe I am getting it all wrong and I am missing out on the next thing. But you clearly say in your word that we are not to worry about tomorrow.

This is the merry-go-round that my thoughts have been on all week. I pray for your help and direction Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

If you were to prepare for tomorrow, what would you be doing? How would you be living your life differently? Are those things that you want in your life today or not?

I am here, now and forever. I am your Lord and your Father and I have only good things planned for you. I will not let you go into the next season unprepared. I have never let that happen and I never will. I love you more than you will know and you will be prepared for the next thing. 

Right now, your "preparation" is to let me worry about tomorrow and you to live each day to its full. I love you and I have placed you in this place, at this time, for that very reason. Enjoy this day. Live this day. Tomorrow is mine to plan and I promise I will bring you a long when it is time. 

I love you daughter. Now and forever.
