“Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. But today is a gift. That is why it's called the present." (Kung Fu Panda) Mark 3:1-6 (New Living Translation) Jesus Heals on the Sabbath    Jesus went into the synagogue again and noticed a man with a deformed hand. 2 Since it was the Sabbath, Jesus’ enemies watched him closely. If he healed the man’s hand, they planned to accuse him of working on the Sabbath.  3 Jesus said to the man with the deformed hand, “Come and stand in front of everyone.” 4 Then he turned to his critics and asked, “Does the law permit good deeds on the Sabbath, or is it a day for doing evil? Is this a day to save life or to destroy it?” But they wouldn’t answer him.  5 He looked around at them angrily and was deeply saddened by their hard hearts. Then he said to the man, “Hold out your hand.” So the man held out his hand, and it was restored! 6 At once the Pharisees went away and met with the supporters of Herod to plot how to kill Jesus. Yesterday is gone.  Tomorrow is not here.  Those of us who try to live either in the past or the future are miserable.  We cannot be content until we learn to live in the present. God has given us this day; today.  If you are reading this, it is a day – some day.  Will you do evil or good?  Will you destroy life or save it? We do not realize the full import of our actions, our words, our thoughts.  Actions originate in our thoughts.  We can – must – learn to control our thoughts.  We must bring every part of our lives captive to the Spirit of Christ. Will I gossip?  Will I lie?  Will I be negative? Will I praise?  Will I tell the truth?  Will I be positive in all my doings? Will I destroy life or save it? The choice is yours, Christian.
