God,
I spend so much time reliving yesterday or anticipating tomorrow that I lose sight of the only time that is really-- the present. Remind me that the past-- with it successes and failures is over. I can make amends where I have hurt others or let them down. But I can't undo what has been done. The future is yet to be, and eagerness or apprehension will not hasten it--
or postpone it. You give me today, one minute at a time. That's all I have--
all I ever will. Give me the faith that knows that each moment contains exactly what is best for me. Give me the hope that trusts You enough to forget past sins and future trials. Give me the love that makes each minute of life an anticipation of eternity with You.
Amen.
