In the moment

Living in the moment.  Being present. Living each day with intentional purpose.  Unless you are very deliberate about this, it is so easy to be concerned about tomorrow. God wants us to be living for the now and focus on his desires for that moment.   Matthew 6:34 says,

“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.”

Excerpt From: Peterson, Eugene. “The Message New Testament With Psalms and Proverbs.”

The key is to become outwardly focused and God focused.  Not only are we to not worry, but our focus is to be on God.  What an amazing world it would be if we can be so focused on God that we are constantly in the moment going about our Father's concerns.  We won't have time to get caught up on gossip, or trivial matters when our heart is with God. We could then be outwardly reaching those around us who need God in their lives.  May you live today in the moment with God leading you.
