“He said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life … can any of you by worrying add a moment to your lifespan?” … Luke 12:22-25
It is so true that we spend altogether too much time concerned about small things that have no real impact on our lives. it is like the married couple that argues about every little thing as they get used to each other, only to find later that they can go through life with a much more positive spirit and energy, if they will but stop worrying about insignificant issues.
As I get older, I see that what is most important is relationship building. First with Jesus but also with those I care about. Today I pray that the young people in our lives see more clearly that fact, sooner rather than later. It is in fact “long range thinking” and that was not my forte either, in my 20s … but that truth cannot be dodged. Now is always the time to get closer to our Lord, because you never know the day you will meet Him in person.
