be patient

Posted on July 11, 2006 | Filed Under personal life, spirituality 

Be patient …

Do not let the burden of the enormous task ahead of you overwhelm you and debilitate you. Yours is not the responsibility of the end result, but only of the next step. Do what you can, what God has equipped you to do. Do that faithfully, one step, one piece, at a time, and God will make of it something good.

Do not worry about tomorrow; it will have enough worries of its own. And the God who walks with you today will be there to walk with you tomorrow, whatever tomorrow brings …
