[[-SOAP HUB]]. [[-Genesis Overview]]. [[Genesis 33]] ## Title: Sufficient is the Trouble of the Day ## Scripture: (Genesis 33:4) “But Esau ran to meet him, embraced him, hugged his neck, and kissed him. Then they both wept.” (NET) ## Observation: When Jesus is speaking about worry in [[Matthew 06]], He ends by saying to not worry about tomorrow. There’s enough trouble in today to keep you busy. He is not saying that we should allow ourselves to worry today. He is simply saying stay focused on what is in front of you. Jacob was right to prepare in case of trouble, but he should not have allowed worry to consume him. When Jacob met with his brother, he was not attacked. He was embraced. I heard a quote one time that said 90% of the things we worry about will never happen. Of the 10% that does happen, 8% are beyond our control. In no scenario would anyone think it was a good bet to do something that only had a 2% chance of success. However, we do it all the time. So, let the words of Jesus echo in our hearts today. Prepare for tomorrow, but live in today. It has enough to keep us busy. ## Application: How can you best organize your day to prepare for tomorrow, but focus on today? ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for already being in tomorrow and making a way we don’t even know we need.
