Our desire for weekend living can even serve as a reminder that we’ve been blessed with a job to go to. But when we’re constantly looking back at the weekend that’s passed, and looking forward to the weekend ahead, we find ourselves missing the current moment. When we become distracted from what’s happening in the moment, we aren’t showing thankfulness for that day God has given us. Matthew 6:25–34 says that we shouldn’t worry about tomorrow because today has enough trouble of its own. We might learn how to make the most of our dreary Monday if we spent more time invested in making the best of it.
