This week was a really good eye opener on how short life can be. It can be taken away in a flash. This song puts us into that perspective. We Only Have Today. In Mathew 6:34(NKJV) it says: 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
We Have Today
Broken homes and lonely people
Riots, wars, closing stores
Today’s world is a messed-up place
Things happen that we cannot erase
Sickness takes so many lives
Deadly outcomes where disease thrives
Burning candles at both ends
From pay to pay, the bills never end
We fret and we frown
And let life keep us down
Take nothing for granted
We don’t have forever
Tomorrow’s not promised
We only have today
Worry drives our daily lives
Workdays are no longer 9 to 5
PTA’s and dance classes
dragging our Ass…ets and credits down
Time for renewal and change
Reach out to those in need
Show love and do good deeds
Forgive and mend some ties
Take nothing for granted
We don’t have forever
Tomorrow’s not promised
We only have today.
Live in the moment
As though there aren’t anymore
Take nothing for granted
We don’t have forever
Tomorrow’s not promised
We only have today.
Broken homes and lonely people
Riots, wars, closing stores
Today’s world is a messed-up place
Things happen that we cannot erase
Sickness takes so many lives
Deadly outcomes where disease thrives
From pay to pay, the bills never end
We fret and we frown
And let life keep us down
We don’t have forever
Tomorrow’s not promised
We only have today
Workdays are no longer 9 to 5
PTA’s and dance classes
dragging our Ass…ets and credits down
Reach out to those in need
Show love and do good deeds
Forgive and mend some ties
We don’t have forever
Tomorrow’s not promised
We only have today.
As though there aren’t anymore
We don’t have forever
Tomorrow’s not promised
We only have today.

This poetry is not only Praise to God but it is also a testimony of His work in my life. Even when I haven't paid attention, He was there through it all. God Loves Me even though I am not perfect and that's enough for me.
