One thing I have learned, and that is, all of my yesterdays, todays and tomorrows are in God's hands, and I have nothing whatsoever to worry about. | |||
Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story “I will,” I mumbled to her as I was doing some reading. “When?” She said with a very stern tone in her voice. “You said you would do it yesterday.” Being very nonchalant, I said, "Well, there's always tomorrow." Then I would laugh. I noticed, though, she never laughed. I am not quite sure how many times I pulled that one on her, but she finally had enough. Looking at me, she said, "You said that yesterday. This is the tomorrow you were talking about yesterday." I had to stop and think about what she was talking about. Tomorrow and yesterday are just words as far as I am concerned. During this hiatus, I didn't think too much about the schedule. And so as far as I was concerned, yesterday and tomorrow have no real significance to me. One day is as good as the other. My wife, on the other hand, has a schedule that she loves to keep to. In fact, since this hiatus, she has cleaned the house from top to bottom 117 times. At least it seems that way to me. Our house is so clean that I have no reason to sneeze anymore. If was any dirt, pollen, or dust, it is completely gone. I did not know how much I enjoyed the dust. We were watching television together the other night, and a ridiculous idea danced through my head. With nothing more to think about, this idea took focus. Doing a commercial, I stared across the room, and my wife said, "What are you looking at?" Staring intently, I pointed and said, “Is that dust I see over there?” As I watched her search for that maverick dust particle, I could not help but think of a verse of Scripture. “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever” (Hebrews 13:8). One thing I have learned, and that is, all of my yesterdays, todays and tomorrows are in God's hands, and I have nothing whatsoever to worry about. Tweet
