Remember:
As bad as 2020 has been/is being, 2021 could be a lot worse.

@StevenBerry
I really appreciate your posts :)
As christians grow up, we tend to hear a lot about the future, God's plan for us, the glorious future with Him in new Jerusalem, and so on.
Living in the moment is portrayed as a worldly phrase.
But is it really?
God doesn't care about our past, he has paid for all our mistakes. He also doesn't want us to get lost in fears and false hopes for the future. The only time that counts to Him is right now.
Is my heart with God in this very moment?!
@Matthias Well said. It's a challenge, because it's so easy to get caught up in what might happen, or what has happened. But God wants us to live in the moment. #Food_for_thought

i guess the scriptural warning about not 'planning for tomorrow' is fitting here too
i love how scripture is always telling us to be present [but not influenced by it] ('in the world but not of it' etc)
so we're to 'not plan for tomorrow' - by making assumptions it WILL happen, but we are to make plans for our future - eg Salvation is definitely planning for the future
but that is planning for something concrete, tangible, quantifiable and certain 🙂
