Yesterdays And Todays

"Certainly, we are never to forget the Lord or His truth or His mighty deeds in our lives. In fact, God repeatedly tells us to remember them.

But the failures of the past, the heartaches, the disappointments…much of these are to be left behind and not dragged into today.

The fact that a weed grew up in your garden yesterday shouldn’t destroy your delight in the rose that blooms there today."

Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23

Perseverance Through Hope

Working Past The Stones

- Albert Schweitzer
