Yesterday's Tomorrow

Oh, how sweet the light of day,
And how wonderful to live in the sunshine!
Even if you live a long time, don’t take a single day for granted.

Take delight in each light-filled hour,
Remembering that there will also be many dark days And that most of what comes your way is smoke. 

You who are young, make the most of your youth. Relish your youthful vigor. Follow the impulses of your heart. If something looks good to you, pursue it. But know also that not just anything goes;
You have to answer to God for every last bit of it.

Ecclesiastes 11:7-9 The Message

God's mercies are new every morning, so each day we get another chance to do it right. So, we go through life thinking "Tomorrow's another day". We'll have another opportunity - a sort of do-over. But when we think about it, today is yesterday's tomorrow and what have we done with TODAY?

It's important to note that we are to live life abundantly through Christ for we will give an accounting to God for each day of it. We tend to live our lives in yesterday and today. God sees it as forever.

Prayer:

Father,

           Forgive us for the time we waste. We ask for Your wisdom and Your grace to live EACH day as You would have us to live. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
