Yesterday

Greetings, Dear Ones!

     I pray that all is well with you and your loved ones!

     How often have you found yourself wishing - like in your childhood games - for a "do-over?" Often? Seldom? Never?

     Have you wished you could, and have then been glad you can't?  

     Well, today's poem, short and to the point, treats exactly to that issue! And while we are at it, let us not forget that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever! (Hebrews 13:8).

     Enjoy!

Yesterday

When I think of yesterday

There’s not much I can do,

But learn from any mistakes I’ve made

And see what better I can do!

And if yesterday has no regrets

Of things that can’t be undone

I gaze upon my triumphs

And tell myself: “Yes! Well done!”

Yes, I know thoughts of yesterday

All in all can go two ways

But thankfully in the Master’s Plan

I’ve a chance for a brand new day!

And since I can’t erase the past,

I will not dwell on it, 

My yesterdays, though a part of me

Now dwell in eternity!

YESTERDAY is HISTORY!

TODAY is a GIFT!

TOMORROW is a MYSTERY!

Why me? and Rescue Workers!

Hello, Again, Dear Friends!

     I hope all is well with you and yours!

    I have a question. How often have you heard sirens passing around your home, or place of work, or when you were out shopping, and it never dawned on you to think of the rescue workers as those who are in need of our prayers?

     Well, there was a time when I heard sirens going by, that they were just that. Sirens going by.

     It was like that for me until just over a year ago when it suddenly entered my consciousness that those sirens were on vehicles carrying sons, daughters, husbands, wives, fathers and mothers, and it gave me pause.

     Now, whenever I hear a siren, I find myself praying for these men and women in the rescue services and, today, I am sharing one of those prayers with you all.

     And then, there is the poem, I Never Asked: Why ME!?  which came about as a result of all the times I wanted to know why me? when things were not going so well, but NEVER when things were going swimmingly. It surely made me think!

     I hope you enjoy these new offering and, don't forget to share them!

Be well, and be gloriously blessed,

BJC
