Today
A Poem
Today is the day made by Him.
Today is the day to harvest.
Today is the day of salvation.
Today is the day for miracles.
Today is the day for deliverance.
Today is the day to be free.

Today is th day to shine
with his light.
Today is the day to walk
by faith not by sight.
Today is the day, not tomorrow,
to live because Jesus already died
and rose again, and because
He already did it all.
What are you waiting for?
Author’s note: Every morning my seven-year-old daughter asks me, “What day is today?” and “What are we doing today, mommy?”. Even when she knows what day it is and what we are going to do on that day, she still asks the questions. I must admit, I don’t always like to be asked the same question, but one morning, as I was reading my Bible, I was convicted. There were things and projects I had not completed, or even began, because I keep telling myself that tomorrow or later will be a better time. Jesus said in John 4:34 that his food, nourishment, was to do God’s will and the work He had asked him to do. Now, when my daughter asks me what day it is I tell her what it says in Psalm 118:24, “This is the day the LORD has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.” NKJV. Then, I pray, get to work, and write. Have you started your project today, or are you waiting for tomorrow?
