Every one of us has a past, a present and a future. The danger is that we, by choice, live in only one of those time zones.
Some people choose to live in the past. Their whole world is yesterday. They think about the past, talk about the past and allow their past to determine their tomorrow.
Other people choose to live only for today. Their mantra is, ‘Yesterday is gone, tomorrow may never come, so live today as if there is no tomorrow.’
The rest of us live in the future. We think that things will be better, one day. We try to forget the past, and survive today, just hoping for a miracle tomorrow.
Matthew 6:34 gives some wise counsel: “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
Let us not forget the lessons learnt in the past. Let us not dream about tomorrow too much either. The challenge you and I face is to use this day, a gift from God, to its fullest.
Wise words. Use a seed from yesterday to plant today, so that you will have a harvest tomorrow.
Thank God for your today!!!
