We have a lot of pickup-trucks in the part of West Texas where I live. Those pickups have an extra-heavy set of springs called “overload springs”—and they work! A good old pickup can carry quite a load of stuff! But, if you took every load that pickup would ever carry, and put it on the pickup all at once, it would collapse.

    It can carry loads fine, one load at a time. Jesus puts it this way, “Let today’s troubles be enough for today.” And that’s the way we’re made too—to carry one day’s troubles at a time.

    So let’s make the rest of the day work a little better. Don’t worry about tomorrow's, or next months burdens. Let today’s troubles be enough for today!
