A great thing to realize is that we cannot neither change a single moment of the past, nor guarantee a single day of the future, and that all we have to offer God is surrender of the very present moment. Many doubts and distractions begin with the thoughts: I did this, I cannot worship now; or, I can't possibly keep this up forever, who am I trying to fool? But God expects us to resolve neither past nor future; He dealt with one on the cross, and He holds the other in His hands. All we do is worship, now; obey, now; love, now. It is the simplest, yet many times the hardest thing to do.

God, help me.
