Stop a Moment

[Bobpower]

Stop a Moment
 
Remember yesterday with all your worries and your fear?
How you dreaded tomorrow and now it is here
 
Now that’s it’s here will you worry of yesterday?
How you wasted your time in the thoughts of today
 
Stop a moment, stand back, take a look,
 
Do you see what I see how you let today pass you by?
Worrying about things you could not change if you try
 
Did you see that opportunity pass within your sight?
When you were worrying about the left you should have been looking right
 
Stop a moment, stand back and take a look,
 
Are you trying to change tomorrow with your ignorance and dismay?
Instead of changing your heart and living for today
 
How many days will you waste in the circle of your fear?
Yesterday and tomorrow will never make it clear
 
God will change your heart he’ll show you in his book
Just stop for a moment, stand back and take a look.

Amen! Extremely true! I feel like during this COVID-19 time, this is a relatable and applicable poem! "So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself." -Matthew 6:34

Tomorrow's worries steal the joy of today. So true.
