“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
—Matthew 6:34 (NIV)
Today, I choose to be present. I will stay grounded—right where my feet are.
Lord, when I wander, bring me back. My mind often drifts to places it shouldn’t go—replaying old emotional sagas or leaping into imagined futures. It’s a well-worn path, one I know too well. But Lord, I want to break that habit.
Help me replace it with something better: a habit of prayer. Help me continuously seek Your guidance, to stay open to the opportunities You place in front of me.
I know You want me here—in this moment—because here is where I can serve others. Help me stay fully engaged in the conversations around me, alert to the chance to live within Your grace.
Let me carry a heart of gratitude. What I have today is someone else’s dream. Thank You for all You’ve given me—Your love, my health, my joy—blessings I so often overlook.
Oh God, center me in my soul. Keep me from wandering. Don’t let my mind lead me to places I don’t belong.
This life is fleeting, but my soul is not. It was made for here—and for forever.
