SABRINA
We often pray The Lord’s Prayer. “Give us this day, our daily bread” Those
words really struck home to me the other day as I read a quote from C.S. Lewis.
“Never, in peace or war, commit your virtue or your happiness to the future.
Happy work is best done by the man who takes his long-term plans somewhat
lightly and works from moment to moment ‘as to the Lord.’
It is only our daily bread that we are encouraged to ask for. The present is the
only time in which any duty can be done or any grace received.” TODAY is all
we are to ask for - Give us TODAY, what we need for TODAY. While we have to
be prepared, how much simpler, more free, would our lives be if we did not
borrow the stresses and problems from tomorrow before the sun ever rises on
tomorrow? God gives us strength, grace and perseverance for today. Find
comfort and peace in knowing that the God of the universe holds you and your
day in the palm of His great hand. Whatever comes your way TODAY, your
needs will be met. Will it be easy? Maybe so, maybe not - but at the end of your
day, you can know that God has walked through it with you.
