God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow

The first week of this year had just past. First week in work for this year not so good. Pressures is already there... This month is the start of the busy season for an accountant/auditor. The preparation of the FS, filing of the ITR on April 15 starts now.... Actually this is my third tax season but my first in this firm. Worries, pressures are all around... Worrying causes me unnecessary stress and I read somewhere, I just can't remember if it's in a book or in a blog that when we worry, we are actually insulting God. Yes I agree with the author. When we worry we are unconsciously doubting God's capabilities in fulfilling His promises. And I realized that I had been insulting God for so many time because of my worry freak attitude. God had proven Himself many times already and yet here I am still getting worried. I'm so bad. The God who had help me with my first two tax season in my former job is the same God who would help me to get through with this another tax season from my new job. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. The God who had help the Israelites long time ago is the same God who would help me. God had help me in the past, He's been continuing to lend His hand to help me in my current situation and I know that He will continue to do so in the future.
