Life is a wonderful blessing and gift from God. But there are times when we may feel like we aren’t really living. We may feel like we just exist, like we are just plodding through, day after day.  The worries and cares of life and the uncertainty of the future can weigh us down and we may feel anxious, unhappy, and unfulfilled. But here in our text Jesus reminds us of the need to focus on faithfulness to God.  He reminds us to stop living in the past or the future, but to live and thrive day by day. Let us consider a few practical aspects of the Christian life that can equip us to do what Jesus says and to live just for today.
