What does the Bible say about today?
Bible Topic · WEB
The Bible calls us to receive each day as God’s gift, trusting his wise providence rather than anxiously grasping for tomorrow. Psalm 118:24 invites joyful gratitude for the day the Lord has made, while Matthew 6:34 teaches us to leave tomorrow’s troubles in God’s hands. We may bring present needs to him in believing prayer, as Mark 11:24 and Matthew 6:9-13 show, seeking daily bread and his kingdom first. James 4:13-15 humbles our plans beneath God’s will, and Hebrews 3:7 urges us to respond to his voice today. Because Jesus Christ is unchanging, believers can rest in his faithful love and guidance each morning.
