You have today, and while it may not be enough for you, it is what you have for as long as it lasts.
You have already begun today as you read these words. You have stepped into the stream of life in the division of time that we name as individual days and you have begun to participate in this one day that is absolutely unique, It has never been before and never will be again.
You have it and, if you are like me, you have already wasted part of it.
You will probably waste a bit more, but just thinking about how precious the day really is, you have also already begun to consider how you will make the best of it. You are plotting a course for what you will accomplish and how you will enrich other people because, having considered the remote possibility that this is your only day, you want it to be significant.
You have today - at least part of it because you are already in it. If it should be cut short, you will have lived this day. If you make it to the end, you will have tomorrow. Within one short second of completing a day, we have another.
This is not rocket science. Nor is it breaking news, but it is very, very important.
You see, days tend to slip away and as they slip, they fall into an abyss of neglect and despair. We look back and wonder where they went and wish that we could recapture them and redeem all of our lost opportunities.
We cannot - except in the sense that what we accomplish today can bring meaning to yesterday. We can slowly transform what is lost into something of meaning and hope. It has some of the benefits of time travel without all the messy risk.
TODAY is:
T - Temporal, temporary, and tempestuous. It is fleeting, but it is also unpredictable and partially unknown. All we know for sure is that it will end and that it will move in some way toward our intentions while having a mind of its own and a tendency to surprise us.
O - Our Opportunity to do something about our lives, enrich the lives of others, reinterpret the past, and reinvent the future. It is one of a kind and it is pregnant with possibilities.
D - Definite. We definitely have today, right now to do something. Perhaps this is an incentive to avoid procrastination of that thing that is burning in our hearts. Make the D into a DO and DO the thing that you know you Desire and need to do, that thing that relates to your Dream, that which your fear has prevented until right now.
A - About Attitude. I use the word "attitude" repeatedly in my acronyms, not because I can't think of any other A words, but because it is so crucial to everything about today, tomorrow, and the future. It determines our course; it drives our dreams; it infects our motives; it orients our thinking; it makes us or breaks us. We must see TODAY with an attitude of joy, wonder, optimism, and responsibility as we embrace its power for good.
Y - YOURS! It is yours. What will you do with it?
May your today be wonderful and may you have many, many tomorrows. You do have today. - Tom Sims

At this very moment, out of the 1470 people receiving this bulletin, someone is considering quitting.
It is not their job that they are tempted to walk out on, or necessarily their marriage, or anything that anyone will immediately notice. It is something far more important ... their dreams.
Someone is about to give up on their dreams and it will show gradually and in very subtle ways.
They are discouraged and hopeless and the rewards just are not coming from their efforts.
I have one word for you, dear friend, and it is not necessarily brilliant. There will be tomorrow. You will have countless opportunities to quit. Quitting will always be an option for you unless and until you come to the place of deciding that it is not. Here is the word: WAIT.
I am just saying, wait. Don't quit today. Give it another day and get back with me. You have no idea what inspiration, burst of energy, word of encouragement, seed of an idea, or Word from God is right around the corner for you.
You just don't know. You still have some strength; use it to get through the day. you still have some faith; apply it. You still have time; you don't have to quit today.
Down time is OK. in fact, it is sometimes necessary. Down time is waiting time - time to "not quit."
There is always tomorrow to throw away your hopes, dreams, ideas, and the investments you have already made. You don't have to quit today.
Wait.
I know you can do that. While you are waiting to regain your belief in yourself, use a little of mine in you.
Blessings,
- Tom

If I were to ask you what God made first, you might say, "light" based upon the first chapter of Genesis. However, it does not say that. It says that He made everything in the beginning and that He made light before other physical phenomena, but Proverbs 8:22 informs us of a prior creation that is not as tangible or corporeal.
Wisdom speaks and says, "The LORD brought me forth as the first of his works, before his deeds of old;" (NIV)
God created logic and reason first and then, used that wisdom to fashion a reasonable and rational creation that can be investigated, observed, and celebrated by people He made in His image.
Verse 18 says, "With me are riches and honor."
Everything observable, predictable, and ordered is based upon the genius of God. every principle that works in business, economics, life, science, and human behavior is rooted in His wisdom.
Wisdom is not God; it is the creation of God. To study any discipline of science or philosophy is to study the Mind of God - how He thinks and How He reveals himself.
And a WAY without a Y (WHY) is just a WA.
It is not enough to be successful; our lives are only truly fulfilled when they are significant.
