There is a song by the popular music group Fleetwood Mac
entitled, "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow." This sentiment is
quite contrary to how our current generation often lives, since most
of us tend to exist solely for today, the here and now.
Without concern for what tomorrow may hold, many live their lives as
if they are walking along a narrow trail in a dense forest. On such
a path, one cannot see what dangers lurk or stand before them. All
that can be seen is the beauty and pleasure within the immediate
visual realm. If one is not careful, a seemingly unassuming path can
lead right off a deadly cliff.
In the Bible, we are told not to give too much worry for tomorrow,
but, in the same breath, it is certainly not our Heavenly Father's
intention for us to be ignorant about one's future either. For
decisions we make today can determine where we will spend our
eternity.
Do you desire to spend your eternity with God, to partake of the
salvation only His Son Jesus Christ can offer? If so, then don't
just live for today, lift your head up, see the big picture, and, as
the song goes, "don't stop thinking about tomorrow."
Call on Christ. He will answer.
PRAYER
"Take, O Lord, and receive my entire liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my whole will. All that I am and all that I possess you have given me. I surrender it all to you to be disposed of according to your will. Give me only your love and your grace”
with these I will be rich enough and will desire nothing more."
(Prayer of Ignatius Loyola, 1491-1556)
