Embrace the moment

Thinking too much about everything we have to do sets the wheels in motion for rushing.

 Thinking too much about everything we have to do sets the wheels in motion for rushing. We often feel overwhelmed when we think of all the future will require of us. This type of thinking is called anxiety. 

When we spend time today trying to figure out tomorrow, we struggle simply because we have grace, strength and power, for one day at a time.  When we try to live tomorrow today, even if only in our minds, we feel pressured and begin to lose peace. 

Yesterday is gone...Tomorrow is not promised...But today is a gift...that's why its called The Present.
