22

Speaker 1: will be meditating on Matthew chapter six, verse thirty four

27

Speaker 1: from the King James version. Take therefore no thought for

28
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: the morrow, for the morrow shall take thought for the

29
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

30
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: Take a moment to pour out your adoration to God. God.

31
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: I worship you, for you are power. I exalt you,

32
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:58,839
Speaker 1: for you live outside the continuum of time. By your

33
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: will and desire, and time was created. You determined time's

34
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: parameter and gave meaning to the changing of the seasons.

35
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: You taught humanity how to gage its passage through the

36
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: yielding of day tonight. Who is like you, Oh Lord

37
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: most High, Your power is infinite, unsearchable, and unmeasurable. You

38
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 1: alone are worthy to be praised. Life is to be

39
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 1: lived one day at a time. This mentality can be

40
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: challenging for many reasons. Overwhelmed by daily problems and pressing matters,

41
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: Some become catatonic and consumed with worry. Others become obsessed

42
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: over control and with guessing what comes next. Reigning in

43
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 1: unchecked ambition and drive while avoiding apathy and carelessness can

44
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: feel like playing a game of Russian Roulette. The odds

45
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: are not favorable. There is no chance for control or

46
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: guarantee of outcome. Regardless of which side of the spectrum

47
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: you land on. You must rely on the help of

48
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit to survive. Take a moment to reflect

49
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: on your current behavior. Examine the areas keeping you from

50
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:39,799
Speaker 1: applying this mindset to your life. Confess them to God.

51
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: Place your anxieties in his hand. Now consider for a

52
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 1: moment God's mercies in your life and thank Him for it.

53
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: God's love for you has never and will never fail.

54
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: His mercies over you. Renew every morning, Thank God that

55
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: you are not bound to anxiety. You are free to

56
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: live in the moment of each day. Thank God for

57
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 1: past situations where He alleviated your concerns for the future.

58
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: Thank God, because He is good he will always be good.

Speaker 1: to live each day as it comes. God is present

61

Speaker 1: and he is listening. To you. Never forget. God wants

62

Speaker 1: you not just to exist, but to live, to enjoy

63
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: life and to its full potential. The Bible warns that

64
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: worry is futile because each day will hold its own

65
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:06,119
Speaker 1: child leunges. Reach out to God for his peace. Ask

66

Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit to help you walk your journey one

67
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: step at a time. Ask him to help you leave

68
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: tomorrow struggles to its own day. Remember, do not worry

69
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: about tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day

70
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: has enough trouble of its own. By living life day
