Today...Now


Sometimes I find myself wandering down that no where road of life called,woulda, shoulda and coulda.





Being contemplative in nature this seems to be my default button....
But I've learned not to dwell there...
                                        



The present holds too much potential, to be marred by an impervious past.
                                      



so run, walk, drift or cruise but go forward.

Philippians 3:12-14 NIV, 12Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

                  the prize awaits.

  3. That was a good reminder not to look back, Lucy, but concentrate on what is ahead. Living in the now is so important, too. Thanks for the reminder. Susan
