You can’t change the past, but you can influence the future. Be in this moment, don’t linger in what is gone, but learn from it. Don’t miss what is in front of you this minute worrying about a future yet to come. This moment, this very minute close your eyes and rest in the presence of God. As you breath in, feel the Spirit of God giving you breath, giving you life. Rest in Him. Give him praise this morning. Enter his presence with gratitude for his son Jesus. Praise Him that we are forgiven. We are free from sin and death. Eternal life is ours in Christ Jesus. All praise to God who created us, who shaped us for a purpose. This moment we praise you dear God. You are worthy of our praise.
“Then the Lord God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being (Genesis 2:7, NIV).”

Amen! Far too many, myself included, waste the precious moment of today by obsessing over the past or worrying what tomorrow will bring. When I find myself slipping into this fruitless mode these days, I remind myself of the Great Constant: Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today (Hebrews 13:8 NIV). With my heart in this place, my life becomes an act of worship, as it is designed by Him to be.
Thanks for sharing this,

That’s a great reminder — Jesus is the same yesterday and today, the Great Constant. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Blessings.
Hallelujah, amen!
