One Day at a Time

We need to take our eyes off us, and in the Lord put our trust,

Our vision can be small indeed, focusing just on present need.

But, the Lord who’s over all, takes care of needs big and small,

As He has and He always will, care for His own, so just be still.



The Lord truly does so much more, for all of those He cares for,

Far beyond what we can see, as He shepherds them to Eternity.

Guiding them along every path, this as they avoid unseen wrath,

And other problems avoided by, God, when we don’t know why.



We’ve been told to live for today, leaning on God along the way,

Not looking at problems tomorrow, only to fill hearts with sorrow,

For believers, it is God’s design, for us to live one day at a time,

And if you try it, you shall find, God will give you peace of mind.



What is to be is know by God, as He leads us with staff and rod,

Guiding His own on paths unknown, as He leads us safely home.

Today we are told not to borrow, any cares at all from tomorrow,

As today alone will have enough, of all those cares we speak of.



In the Lord we should always rest, no matter what the trial or test,

On any path that you need to take, you, the Lord will not forsake,

But, it’s His own who forsake Him, when worry leads cares to sin,

So, be still and rest in Christ, and God’s Peace, shall fill your life.
