Today's Light

I took this picture this afternoon. Sometimes we gain understanding the way this drop gathered the light. Even on the darkest, most dreary days there is enough light. Maybe all the light we can take at this moment. And tomorrow there will be more to add to the light we found today. The key is to look for today's light and let tomorrow's come when it gets here!



Matthew 6:22; 32-34 (Amplified Version)

The eye is the lamp of the body. So if your eye is sound, your entire body will be full of light.

For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for and crave and diligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all.

But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides.

So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own.
