There are many uncertainties and challenges you face every day. It can be easy to find yourself consumed by worry and anxiety about the future. However, in Matthew chapter 6, Jesus provides a profound weapon for overcoming anxiety - daily faithfulness!

When Jesus questions the futility of worrying about the future, asking, "which one of you by worrying can add a single moment of life," he isn't simply saying, as some condescending parent, "Hey, stop that!" This rhetorical question is a powerful reminder that excessive worry changes nothing. It robs us of the joy and peace that can be found in the present moment.

Jesus urges us to focus on today, stating, "Tomorrow will worry about tomorrow." An emphasis on daily faithfulness is the oft-unexpected answer to worry and anxiety. Rather than getting lost in the uncertainties of the future, Jesus invites you to be faithful to the opportunities, responsibilities, and blessings that exist today.

The key to overcoming worry lies in redirecting your gaze from the distant uncertainties to the tangible realities of the present. It's about recognizing and appreciating what you have in your hands today. Instead of looking off into the future, choose to consider the responsibilities at hand today, the relationships you are part of, and the opportunities before you. By being faithful to what you have today, you will not only pave the way for a more promising future, but you will also cause anxiety and worry to lose their grip on your heart and mind.
