Do Not Worry

Submission for projectalicia
Beyond this day, I can't see.

So, I may as well live in the moment.

Always, I rush frantic, feel frenzied, but why?  How fruitless is that?  I feel as though I make up stress at times.

So I'm practicing looking at the moments and not beyond.

Do I have to do this right now?  Yes, so do it. No?  Then don't worry about it for now.

When I look beyond, even to the very next thing, I can't enjoy what I'm doing now.

He who knows the number of hairs on my head knows my to-do list.  If I hand it over He is well able to aid me in prioritizing and accomplishing.

"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 than food, and the body more than clothes? 26Look 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? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[a]?
   28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these." -Matthew 6: 25-30

Caught



I am caught, I am loved



Caught:

I was caught when I was young.  And caught still today.  I am so grateful that I am His and He is mine.  To know this God of love, to live forever in the embrace of a father, so good.  

When I am caught in endless worries, pervasive thoughts, it is Him who calms.  

He is the great pursuer of my soul and when I long to feel loved, special, I listen, quiet long enough to sense the wooing.

The dance we do, the songs He sings over me while I sleep, the angels sent to protect while I slumber, it is all so good.  

I've been caught up in webs of others, caught up in self-destruction but where I long to stay is in His protection.  To know without a doubt, He'll catch me when I fall, to be caught up in His love for me, caught up in my alone time with Him.
