How many people have a difficult time in enjoying today! We get so caught up in worrying about tomorrow or fretting over yesterday, that we cannot enjoy the moment that we are living in today. How many times we think, well when I get that new job, or new promotion, new home, new car, when I get married, or when I retire then I will be able to enjoy life. No you won't! We need to learn to enjoy right now!
The Shorter Westminster Catechism says - "The chief end of man is to glorify God and ENJOY HIM FOREVER." We may be glorifying God, but do we have a hard time enjoying God?
That almost sounds disrespectful, but the reality is the "Joy of the Lord is my strength."
Jesus tells us - "Do not worry about tomorrow, because today has enough evil of it's own." What is the principle? - Do not worry about things that you cannot control. That is a useless endeavor, and a waste of our emotional energy.
I want to encourage you to enjoy God today and you will glorify God!
