Today is a new day. Yesterday is done. Regardless of what happened yesterday, "good" or "bad", it's in the books. I focus on today and what I can pack into the stream of life. God gives me that clean slate and it's up to me how I paint it, with His guidance and performing His will. It's a freedom I never had before, where I was wracked with guilt and shame and remorse. I need not feel that way any more, because I have the tools to deal with those as they crop up. I thank God (and newby!) for these daily reflections in the morning, that I may use them as fuel for a day of giving back and gratitude!
