Blow a kiss to yesterday,
bid a fond adieu;
do not weep for days gone by,
they do not weep for you.
Stand upright in the moment,
feel the presents of the light;
embrace the warmth within your shell,
it flickers in the night.
Faith is in the moment
when in God you put your trust,
give your burdens to our Lord;
for God is not unjust.
Rest your mind of weary thoughts,
rejoice the purest truth,
for what you do unto others;
our Lord shall do unto you.

rejoice the purest truth"
Indeed yesterday is gone and tomorrow has not yet dawned. This moment is all we have and we alone control its destiny!
Bravo!

What a grand new revelation. And it is always best to let yesterday go and look forward to the future. With faith and the proper attitude, putting all others before you, the Lord always sees to it that we have all we need in the morrow.

What a beautiful "Embrace,"
a most thoughtful prayer...
And now, after last night,
our tomorrows do look brighter!
