Scattered

Lord.. Why can’t I seem to focus? I always feel like I am forgetting things and never seem to get anything done.

Today I’m going to…

Pray for the wisdom to get me through today

That my mind is focused and that  my directions will not stray

Feeling as if our tasks for the day, which we think are all planned out nicely in the morning, are just all over the place by the afternoon… scattered, as if you are fumbling through your day is very frustrating.

Often we spend time worrying about what is going on in the many circumstances that we struggle through. These thoughts distract us. God is the perfect planner. When we give God our trust and faith, we can believe that our day will accomplish what it is supposed to.

Jesus taught us that we are to only carry today’s burden for yesterday is gone and worrying about tomorrow is too much for us. When we trust in God, the worry falls, even if we have to keep reminding ourselves several times throughout each day. I know that I do. It is easy for my thoughts to stray, but I try to bring myself back to God. This is when I start to see things getting done and I have peace of mind and spirit.

Matthew  6:34

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has trouble enough of its own.
