Let go of the past; stay in the present; be hopeful of tomorrow
I need to constantly remind myself that my life is written each moment I breathe. It's not the next breath, next hour, next week, next month, next year, or 10 years from now. Life is lived in each moment.
I usually lose my focus on today when I get caught up with future promises and distant visions. Not surprisingly, the past has an equal power on me. The "what-if," "oh-Lord-why," "if-i-could-relive" moments are crippling.
He continually teaches me that my life is defined not by my past or future, but by my present. What am I doing now? How am I living now? Where am I now? The power of change is within me. He lives in me. I must exercise it now.
"I will be hopeful of tomorrow."
