BIBLE VERSE: ”Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before..” —-Philippians 3:13
BIBLE THOUGHT: There are two days that can steal your joy and fulfillment of today. One is yesterday and the other is tomorrow. Both are days in which we as Christians should refuse to live. So many of us have never learned to seperate ourselves from yesterday. We are still dragging it around with us and it is stealing our joy. Paul could have lived in the realm of discouragment, but he refused. Maybe you, like Paul and countless others, have had a dissapointing day (and he did many times. Nearly beat to death, hungry often, and put in prison all because he doing the Lord’s work). Then, there is the worry of tomorrow. What is going to happen? Will everything work out? How soon we forget, that our Lord is “a very present help in time of trouble.”
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Don’t let YESTERDAY or TOMORROW contaminate TODAY!
