Most people are looking for better times
Better times, for many people…if not most…are either somewhere in the past or in the future. Do you think that way? If so, why? Are things not going like you want or prefer? And what criteria needs to be met before you think things are better? Well, I’d like to make the case why I believe you should consider today as the day your better times begin.
Think back in your past as far as you can. Or at least think back to a time you feel was better. Can you see yourself smiling, laughing, having a good time? What were you doing? What made it better? Got a clear picture in your mind? Good. Now…go there and pick up where you left off. What? Can’t do it? Why not? Oh yeah…it’s impossible to go back to any time in the past.
Try grabbing better times from the future.
Oops. You can’t do that either can you? Why? Because the future is a time you can only live in when it gets here. And then it isn’t the future anymore. It’s now.
And that’s the key. If you have any hope of making times better than what you’re experiencing or what you’ve been experiencing lately, you have to work on it NOW. Now is the only time you can work in. So what are waiting for? Read this short rhyme to help you remember…and then get to work. Any questions?
Is there a day you go back to when you think of better times?
Or do you think that day is somewhere up ahead?
But either way it’s a day when all your cares will melt away,
And then your life will be fulfilling dreams instead.
Well, let me say, I’m for living with that hope inside your heart.
I do believe in looking for a better way.
But cares won’t go until you know your Creator loves you so.
That’s how the better times you need begin today. ~Tony Funderburk
