“Instead, be concerned above everything else with the Kingdom of God and with what he requires of you, and he will provide you with all these other things.” (Matthew 6:33 GNT)
We shouldn’t worry about most of the things we probably worry about. However, it’s easier said than done and sometimes you panic. The amazing thing is that Jesus knows we are only human and sometimes mess up. God is so graceful and merciful. Aren’t we lucky to be called the servants of the Most High?
Think about it. Think of all the times worrying did not lead to any resolution. What if’s might be your first response but you have to be able to bring yourself back to Jesus and God. Overtime the new response will become your new normal and the old will subside. Besides Jesus is peace. Who doesn’t want peace during uncertain times?
When we focus on Jesus everything else follows. Think of it as a battlefield. We are the soldiers and God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit are our Generals. They help us individually mold and shape into who we need to be. The plan for our lives we’re already established before we were born. We might make the plans but God directs our steps.
Focus on doing what you have to do for God and He will focus on what He has to do for you. God cannot move if we don’t move. Sometimes God is calling us higher because we have already passed the level we are on. Think of it as a video game. Imagine playing this game and the level you just won starts over. How would you feel?
