Coping With Dwindling Finances预览
There are general worries that come and go if you allow your mind to settle on them, and then there are specific worries that are related to today. What will I eat? How will I replace my worn-out shoes? How can I buy my transit pass, or a few gallons of gas to get to work? Those worries may not have a long shelf life, but in the moment that are intense and potentially paralyzing to the spirit.
PRAY: Lord, today I have specific bills I have to pay, and I need to eat.
Before you let worry take root, hear Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew:
READ: Matthew 6:31, 32b
REFLECT: So worry has a starting point. What triggers your worry? What can you do to be proactive in the face of those repeatable worry triggers?
RESPOND: If your Father in heaven knows what you need, what can you do today to communicate your trust in his care for you?
