“Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.” – Proverbs 16:3
In his article: “Be Thankful for What You’ve Got: Overcoming FOMO”, author Paul Terranova wrote:
“FOMO—that is, a strong Fear Of Missing Out, has become a sad reality in America.
FOMO is the feeling that other people are more successful, having more fun, or living better lives than you are. In an age of social media, this phenomenon is almost impossible to avoid. Who among us hasn’t read an article on the “Great Resignation” in the past year and—regardless of how happy we are with our current jobs—at least briefly thought about what could be?
Studies indicate that people with FOMO will often do one of the following:
overcommit and then fail to fulfill many of their commitments, or
choose to avoid, as much as possible, making any commitments at all.
In the second case, the lack of motivation stems from the fear that, in making a commitment, people may lose the chance to engage in another experience that could yield even greater short-term satisfaction. The incessant stress and doubt that FOMO creates can lead them impulsively to follow whatever others are doing, at the expense of their own goals.”
The Lord asks us to commit to the Lord whatever we do. Today in prayer, commit all that you do to the Lord and seek to faithfully seek Him.

God’s Word: “Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.” – Psalm 37:5-6
