Yesterday - Tomorrow - TODAY!

Dr. Vance Havner (1901-1986) writes, “How many of us live looking back or ahead, between a holy past and a holier future, but in a hollow present! Some sigh for the good old days when our fathers worshiped in this mountain. Some long for a better day ahead, when the Great Avenger shall vindicate us of our adversaries. But we need not stand at Jacob's well with our souls unsatisfied. The Messiah has come, He lives today, and He will meet us now where we are and as we are. We cannot go back to the fountains of yesterday nor drink at the springs of tomorrow.”[3] As we trust and obey the Lord each day we have new proof of God’s presence, power, and purpose.
