Someday never comes
Submitted by scott on 2006-08-12
Oh father why do I always promise for tomorrow? That I will finally do what I say? That my flesh will do what my heart tells it? This is my biggest fear of them all. I think tomorrow will be a better day and that will be my start.
Where is my heart? What is it waiting for? Tomorrow is not guaranteed so how can I expect it to arrive? Tomorrow is a way to the end of me so why should I live torward it?
Father teach me to understand that today, the present is what counts. Not tomorrow or yesterday. Because if tomorrow comes, it will be the same as yesterday and yesterday will judge me. How severe will the judgement be?
I will not discuss others in the world. For it is up to themselves to administer themselves. But I've learned that no matter what the circumstances are, I cannot change anyone's heart. It is what they make it. I want to continue doing what I can for the world, but I know I can't change it.
So as I close, I will try to remember that I can promise you tomorrow, just to get out of it. Now I have no excuse for waiting because I understand. Someday never comes.
