THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK - 7th JUNE 2010

'God did not do it all in one day. What makes you think you can?'

We live in a society that expects everything NOW. We are no different, we get frustrated just waiting in a queue at McDonalds. Fast food isn’t fast enough for us.

They say that a New York minute is the time it takes (about 2 seconds)for the driver behind the first car in a queue at traffic lights to beep his horn because the car in front has not moved off when the lights turn green.

We often overestimate what God should do with us in one year and serious underestimate what God wants to do with us over five years.

GOD'S WORD SAYS :

MATTHEW 6:25-27 "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

MATTHEW 6:33-34 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Do not worry - Trust in the Lord with all your heart.
