Good Enough
Loving What Is
SATURDAY, MARCH 26
Good Enough, 129-133 Philippians 4:4-9
Are you someone who loves to live in the past, the present, or the future? Why?
Which is the hardest for you to live into and why?
In Philippians 4:4-9, Paul connects gentleness with two practices: handing over our worries to God, and loving what is good in the here and now. But it’s hard to notice the good things when we are trying to problem-solve. Grab some sticky notes or scraps of paper, and give each of your worries a name. Place them in a basket—into God’s hands.
God, I am bringing all these worries to You, for they are too big for me to solve right now. And I am turning my eyes to all that is good, gazing on each one knowing they all come from You: the true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, praiseworthy, and excellent things. Thank You, God.
Amen.
