Daylight Savings Time ends today in most areas of the United States. As you change the clocks back, take a moment and reflect on the past year. Remember the many blessings God has given you. Visualize sunlight shining on the glorious moments of your past and see it extending its brilliant rays of light ahead into the future.

Not only does the peace of God pass all understanding, it defies all description. When it enters our hearts, old haunting fears give way to feelings of courage and confidence; the restlessness of life is quieted.

The parable of the good and faithful servant stresses the value of little things. Sometimes we think in larger-than-life terms—what grand gesture can I do to show my faith? But this parable reminds you that it is the little things that “Enter into the joy of the Master.”

Often Jesus blesses us with more than we can even imagine. As humans, we limit our thinking to the rules of this world, but God’s ways are miraculously limitless. Open your mind and your prayers to His infinite command. Trust that His plan is best.

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale said, “If you worry, you are a worrier because your mind is saturated with worry thoughts. To counteract these, mark every passage in your Bible that speaks of faith, hope, and courage.” Instead of focusing your energy on your problems, focus on God and His Word.

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale advised, “Let go of the past and look for God’s direction for a blessed future.” God is with you and watching out for you every day. Be still and receive the gift of His love. Trust that your future is in His hands.
