Life comes to us in such little bits

(J.R. Miller)

"Give us this day our daily bread." Matthew 6:11 

"As your days — so shall your strength be." Deuteronomy 33:25 

We should be thankful that life comes to us in such little bits. 

We can always live one day well enough. 
We can always carry one day's burdens. 
We can always do one day's duties. 
We can always endure one day's sorrows. 

It is a blessing that one day is all that God ever gives us at a time. We should be thankful for the nights that cut off our tomorrowsfrom our view, so that we cannot even see them until they dawn. The little days, nestling between the nights like quiet valleys between the hills, then seem so safe and peaceful.

"Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own!" Matthew 6:34
