LIVE FOR TODAY
Have you ever wished,
when a day went wrong
a wish that's quite in vain
that it were only possible
to live that day again
You'd start out in the morning
with the prayers you should have said
and through the days your actions
with tolerance be led
The many little instances
that tried your patience, true
if only you could start again
you'd know now what to do
You'd kneel and say your evening prayers
and thank the lord above
for all the pleasant hours past
your heart at peace with love
But since this is a wish in vain
and never can be true
there's only one alternative
just one thing you can do
To live today in such a way
that when tomorrow comes
the memories of yesterday
will all be cherished ones.
By Nita Wheeler
We can sit around all day and think of the past and what we
should have done in a certain situation but instead of
wasting the precious time the Lord has given us, we should
look toward the future with a hope and a dream. It is a
waste of your time to live in the past for many reasons but
the most important reason is because, you cannot change the
past. I encourage you to forget yesterday and look toward
tomorrow. As we look forward to our tomorrows God will
place a peace and comfort in our hearts for trusting in Him
and not worrying about our past sins and failures. If God
forgave your past then why should you dwell on those
unimportant issues.
