Living for today

Matthew 6:34   Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
Reality only exists in the moment not in the past which has passed away and not the future that hasn't happened yet. If you spend your present moment worrying about your future or regretting your past you are letting life pass you by, you're not living. To live life now your mind has to be alert and attentive to your present activity. Weather that is praying or washing dishes or working at your job or tending to the children your focus needs to be  on the task at hand. All your attention , motivation, love, passion, zeal, and commitment must be in the moment. That is how you achieve excellence. That is when you will be constantly working at your best and giving life your all. How can you have time for regret or worry when you live this way.There just isn't time for that and you will realize how stupid it is to even bother with such thinking. The present is all that really matters. Now I'm not saying that you go out and blow all your money because the present is all that matters, that's just crazy. What I am saying is not to waist time worrying how you are going to make it through tomorrow or dwelling on your mistakes from yesterday. Instead set your heart on today because yesterday you can't change and tomorrow will come soon enough. Amen!
