Living in the present,
but dwelling on the past.
Conducive to making our life any longer last?
Once given our fervent prayer of pleas, are they possible again to retrieve?
Are not our errors of yesterday better left in his trustworthy reprieve?
If yesterday is gone why continue to live there?
Why do we carry on sentencing ourselves, and over and over, us rip and tear?
Convicted or exonerated!
Though we are impotent in these extreme terms we everyday constantly them ponder…
With what right to judge ourselves or anyone else, is that not within his sole jurisdiction, to capably conquer?
The future is brighter when fully trusting his merciful forgiving ability.
Lest we forget he truly understands our inherent fragility...
Yesterday gone, tomorrow now here.
Let's take this fresh opportunity to fully incline our willing hearts, and to his compassionate standards, wholly adhere...

Lamentations 3:22,23
22 It is because of Jehovah’s loyal love that we have not come to our finish, For his mercies never end. 23 They are new each morning; your faithfulness is abundant.
Psalms 146:3,4
3 Do not put your trust in princes Nor in a son of man, who cannot bring salvation. 4 His spirit goes out, he returns to the ground; On that very day his thoughts perish.
Proverbs 3:5
5 Trust in Jehovah with all your heart, And do not rely on your own understanding.
Psalm 103:14
14 For he well knows how we are formed, Remembering that we are dust.
————————————
Psalm 103:14 is many times misunderstood.
Would anyone build a structure, like a house, out of dust?
No, because dust is a (fragile) substance.
Jehovah remembers, and never forgets that we are fragile, and lovingly deals with us according to our well understood makeup.
He certainly gave us an extraordinary example as to how we should interact with all others, especially our young children.
Philippians 2:3,4
3 Do nothing out of contentiousness or out of egotism, but with humility consider others superior to you, 4 as you look out not only for your own interests, but also for the interests of others.
