Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
Matthew 6:34
Sometimes, we lose faith because we worry about a lot of things, like the future. It’s harder to live out these words than it is to say and read them. It’s a hard concept especially for people whose nature is to worry and fret about a future we cannot see.
God wants us to trust Him enough that He will take care of us tomorrow. We don’t need to worry ourselves about tomorrow because He has it all planned. The message of this part of Matthew 6:34 is that we need to trust in our Lord that He will take care of us in all of our days.
God wants us to be present in the here and now, knowing that He will take care of our future. God is working in our lives at the very present moment – He doesn’t want us to miss what’s right in front of us. That’s why this part of Matthew 6:34 is so important. Knowing that God is working in our lives at every moment, we don’t need to be anxious about tomorrow, we keep our eyes open for where God is in the present moment.
One of the greatest positions of faith is to rest in the Father's arms and adore Him. Rest in the goodness of God. Rest in His promises. Rest in His victory. Rest, and He will take care of the rest. Like John the beloved, lay your head upon Jesus' chest. It's in this place of intimacy and communion that all concerns are drowned out by the beat of God's heart. His heart is beating for you. The Father says, "You are in the palm of My hand."
God is with you.
He goes before you.
He got your back.
He will never leave you.
He loves you.
