Do not anticipate what will happen tomorrow. The same everlasting Father who cares for you today will take care of you tomorrow and every day…. Be at peace, then, and put aside all anxious thoughts and imaginations.
Saint Francis de Sales

Do Not Look with Fear
Topic: Life Beyond Death & the Spirit World
DO NOT LOOK WITH FEAR
Do not look with fear
on the changes and chances of this life;
rather look to them with full faith that as they arise,
God – whose you are – will deliver you out of them.
He has kept you hitherto.
Do not but hold fast to His dear hand,
and He will lead you safely through all things;
and when you cannot stand, He will bear you
in His arms.
Do not anticipate what will happen tomorrow.
The same everlasting Father who cares for you today
will take care of you tomorrow and every day.
Either He will shield you from suffering or
He will give you unfailing strength to bear it.
Be at peace, then, and put aside all anxious thoughts
and imaginations.
