Living in the present is never easy--but during these trying times, it's especially difficult. Amy Glass and Allison Entrekin discuss the pull they feel to fantasize about the future rather than accept the present.

Helpful prayer (special thanks to the Lectio 365 app and Richard Foster):

Today, O Lord, I yield myself to You.

May Your will be my delight today.

May Your way have perfect sway in me. 

May Your love be the pattern of my living.

I surrender to You my hopes, my dreams, my ambitions.

Do with them what You will, when You will, as You will.

I place into Your loving care my family, my friends, my future.

Care for them with a care that I can never give.

I release into Your hands my need to control, my craving for status, my fear of obscurity.

Eradicate the evil, purify the good, and establish Your kingdom on earth.

For Jesus' sake,

Amen
