Are you better off today…or…yesterday
As you look back over your life…
What do you see…
Better then…better now…
Or seemingly stuck
Are you better physically…today
Or were you better yesterday
Are you better spiritually today
Or were you better yesterday
Is your family better…today
Or were they better yesterday
Is your culture better…today
Or was it better yesterday
Is your church better…today
Or was it better yesterday
Is your country better…today
Or was it better yesterday
Is the character of who we are better…today
Or was it better yesterday
Yesterday is gone…
Not to be relived…
But to be learned from…
Redirected or built upon
Today is right here…
Right now…an active period of time
It’s where change occurs
Today…ask the question
Am I better off today…or…yesterday
Pay attention to the answer
Express gratitude…
For the gift of opportunity…to take action…
To be and do better in some aspect of your life…
Today…more so…than yesterday
