Of all God’s creatures I know of only one that is capable of the concept of time … man.  Inside our minds we carry mental recordings of past events, both failures and successes, and are able to recall them at will.  We then take these memories and use them in conjunction with current conditions to achieve future successes and avoid future failures.  We form strategies and plans for what we will do tomorrow, next week, next month, next year.  At the same time, it is critical that we remember it is only in the here and now that we are able to act.  There is no “DO” in yesterday, there is no “DO” in tomorrow; the only day with “DO” in it is today.

Eccl. 9:10 tells us, “Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.”; and Gal. 6:10 states, “As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.”  I encourage you to take action today; do good things today that move you towards the positive goals you have set; do things today that change you so that you become the best person you can envision yourself to be; do things today that positively affect those you contact  (especially those who reside within your circle of influence).

God bless and have a great week!
