I'm sure many of us can relate to this message. We have a past. We worry about it. We have a future. We worry about it. We worry what our next day will hold. We worry that everything turns out as planned. I do this too.
We all know that person who is always saying, "I can't wait until 'Christmas or New Years or spring or until this day is over, blah, blah, blah'." They never live for today. Never! I find myself doing this occasionally too. In fact, lately too often. I have a task list or things I want to get done each day to get to tomorrow. I really need to work on this.
I need to live for today. I need to make sure today counts. Today, I forgot my wallet at home which I realized as I was in line to pay at Kohl's. Ugh! This set me behind. I had to run all the way home and then back to Kohl's and to my other errands. One was to my Grandma's. as I arrived, I noticed she was in a good mood. Maybe even happy to see me. Bored. This saddened me. She offered me soup and warm tea. I really wasn't hungry and had lots to do, but I was reminded of the message in church today and I took off my shoes and coat and stayed. Aunt Mary came over too. I was glad I stayed. We talked and laughed. I enjoyed my visit with my Grandma and Aunt today! :) I lived for today.
I'm thankful for today's message in church today!
