As much as we would like to re-live the past or even alter the past we can't. The past is locked by Divine decree. Every minute that passes forms into a fixed history. The past does not vanish it simply appears again as history.
As much as we would like to know the future, we can't; it too is locked tight. We can predict, but never know for sure.
We are forced to live in the now ... the moving present. The fluid in-between of past and future. The measured ticking of twenty-four hours is the sound of the simple span of now.
What I do now won't alter the past, but it will alter my future and can alter the greater future.
The future is always coming at its consistent, divinely measured speed; whether we like it or not.
I need the simple skill of seeing and taking the opportunities presented me to build the future I want.
Lord, I need your wisdom.
