Where do you live?
No, not your street address. Where do you live in your mind?
The old song, 'Yesterday,' attests to the reality that some people, even believers, live in the past. The line, "I believe in yesterday" speaks about looking back.
There may be some beautiful memories in your past that always bring you joy upon their reflection, but focusing on the past will most certainly assure that you will dwell far too fully upon your past mistakes.
You must remind yourself that the Lord of yesterday Is the God of today. When you allow Him to be the focus of this month, this week--this day! you will discover a fresh brightness to your today because the shadow of the past will no longer cloud your present or darken your future.
Because He Holds tomorrow in His hand, you can escape the frustrations and disappointments of the past and delight in the opportunities of today. Because He holds tomorrow in His hand, you can be confident that no matter what tomorrow holds, the One who holds you will "perfect all that concerns you" through all the days of your life.
The One who is the Beginning and the End will be with you to guide you and to guard you until that glorious day He takes you home to be with Him forever.
