Live For Tomorrow, Have It Today
Do you have something that you save for tomorrow?
A set of dishes, a favorite attire?
In my case, a mixer lol
You are going to laugh when I tell you this
I bought that mixer two, three years ago
Thinking I would use it when I get married
as I would cook then
You know that thing's been sitting in my garage
on a shelf - still hasn't been opened
We all have something like that
save for tomorrow
We don't enjoy it today
What about that trip you meant to take?
Did you go?
Or you are going to wait
till you have the time, the fund, or whatever?
You are going to wait a long time, my friend
as things tend to happen only when we want it
What about that beachfront property you've wanted?
What are you doing today to make it happen?
Live for tomorrow but have it today
Don't let a day go by that you don't do something for someone
Work toward your goals
Plant, grow
Live, give
See yourself how you want to be
God will help you get there
Think of tomorrow
Plan for it today
