No Worries!

“Give your entire attention to what God is doing right now, and don’t get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow. God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes."  Matthew 6:34 (The Message)

Kyle (2009)

It's hard to believe there is only one month of summer left.  I try not to think about it actually.  Slow mornings, evening baseball games, bbq dinners, and iced tea are all wonderful things.  Not a worry in the world!  

School starts soon though. Alyssa and Kyle are needing to start figuring out classes to take, what supplies they need, roomate possibilities (for Lyss), and sorting through job opportunities.  The list goes on and on of things my kids could be worried about.  

My prayer is that if the worries start to make an appearance, that Alyssa and Kyle can fix their attention on Christ and trust Him for what they do not know or understand.  He will work it all out!

Trust God from the bottom of your heart;
    don’t try to figure out everything on your own.
Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go;
    he’s the one who will keep you on track.
Don’t assume that you know it all.    Run to God!
Proverbs 3:5-6 (The Message)

Lord, life is full of things to worry about.  I pray that Alyssa and Kyle can keep themselves from fretting and anxiety, and learn that they can trust You with every care and concern. Recognizing that you are the One who takes care of all their yesterdays, todays and tomorrows, will allow them to life a life of peace, joy, and hope.  You are worthy of their trust.  Teach Alyssa and Kyle to come to you with their cares and worries.  Help them to speak to you as one would speak to a friend, and find a confidence to face tomorrow.  You, dear Jesus, hold each day in your hands.  I pray that Alyssa and Kyle know that full well.
