No matter how hard we try, yet we cannot scale God’s love. If we look back in time and remember some of our past attitudes,
I want to encourage you to stop and think about how wonderful it is to be loved and wanted by God. This means we can relax, breathe and receive His love. We can think about it, thank Him for it, and watch for the ways His love shows up in our daily lives. God shows His love for us in so many things, both big and small, but we’re often unaware of it.

Life does get difficult at times but we can learn how to navigate those times successfully without losing our peace and joy. The thoughts we allow into our minds, and the attitude we choose to have are the determining factors.

God gave the Israelites their manna one day at a time. They were not allowed to store any of it up for another time – by doing this, they showed their trust and confidence in God and His promise to provide for them each day. Any time they did collect more than enough for one day, it became rotten and smelled bad. Many people say they have a “stinking, rotten life.” They don’t mean they smell – I think they’re saying they have taken on too much – too much work, too much responsibility, too much to think through and it’s so much, they have nowhere to put it and much is wasted. They are complicating today trying to gather provision for tomorrow.
