Jesus tell us pretty clearly in Matthew to "STOP" worrying about tomorrow. And yet, if we are honest...how much time do we spend doing just that? I was having an interesting conversation with my daughter this morning about whether or not Lily (granddaughter) understands time. When Meghan drops her off at daycare, she explains to her that she will be picked up that afternoon and then they will go and do this and that. Lily replies with a simple statement "pick you up mommy"! The only concern Lily has is "mommy, COME BACK and pick ME UP!" She doesn't worry about today or tomorrow and how much time is in between. She focuses on the "NOW". Wouldn't it be great if we truly lived in the "NOW". I don't need to remind you that "NOW" is all you have! Jesus also tells us to not waste time storing up treasures on earth. How much of the "NOW" are you wasting doing just that? Our "NOW" should be about the kiingdom. Who are you leading today? Who are you praying for today? Is your "NOW" glorifying God? I bet Lily's is!
