Difference between guilt and worry

Guilt is concerned with the past

 Worry is concerned with the future

  Contentment enjoys the present

Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.

Philippians 4:11

Many days are spent over the lost days of "do over one more time" or regrets.  Even more days are spent over waiting for the next day, week or month to really make a difference.

These are tough times for each and everyone of us to have to face physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

It takes practice to be focus on the good and not so good for today.

When Paul wrote to the Christians in the area of Philippi it was not to disregard the past troubles, and future problems. It was the mindset that with the Lord we can rejoice always (over and over again). In order to reach that mind set Paul also wrote

⁵ Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; ⁶ do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. ⁷ And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

To be content today, pray and ask, pray and ask, pray and ask for the peace of God. It will come and with it an action plan for contentment on tomorrow.

³³ But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

³⁴ “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

Matthew 6:32-34
