Living "TODAY" today

Yes, it is always good to have something to look forward to, but may we not live to look forward for the future nor linger in the past. Not to be anxious for tomorrow for today is sufficient of its own evil. We need to live in the present and appreciate the Lord's presence in the present! May we be one with the Lord TODAY!

Lord, make us people who care for Your dispensing into us. Make us see that in situations good or bad, it is Your dispensing that will last till eternity. May no moment go by without us gaining You as our rich life supply. Your riches are vast and unsearchable.

Job 15:31
Let him not trust in vanity, deceiving himself; for vanity will be his recompence.

1 Tim 6:17
Charge those who are rich in the present age not to be high-minded, nor to set their hope on the uncertainty of riches but on God, who affords us all things richly for our enjoyment.

Just see how uncertain money is. With global financial crisis, the value of money just plunged overnight. People who trusted in money and held onto money took their own lives because they hoped in money. Without money, their hope vanished.
O saints, but Christ in us is our hope of glory. May we live Christ. May the Lord have mercy on us that we will learn to give to the Lord financially and not be deceived and hypnotised by money.

May the Lord have mercy on us, that we may see through the lies of Satan and all that he has to offer is vanity.

Lord we love You. Not because we initiated this love, but because of Your strong, constraining tide of love.

Lord, we give ourselves to love You for there is no other way that is so safe, so sweet, everlasting and prevailing.

  1. Give yourself to love the Lord.
    No other way is so prevailing
    And no other way, no other way is so safe.

  2. Give yourself to love the Lord.
    No other way is so rich,
    And so full, oh so full, of enjoyment.

    • Each morning we must rise up and say to Him,
      "Lord Jesus, I love You."

  3. Give yourself to love the Lord.
    Do not care for anything else;
    Just love Him! Do not care!
    Give yourself to love the Lord!

    • We are not our own, Lord;
      All we have we give to You.
      Lord Jesus! Lord Jesus!
      Lord Jesus, we love You!
