Remind me when tomorrow forgets.

Remind me when tomorrow forgets. When it forgets the joys and possibilities from this very hour. When sorrow overwhelms my soul and the joy from yesterday has disappeared, remind me of Your goodness, of Your hand over my life. When it forgets of how the stars shone with such beauty and wonder, may I be but reminded of the One who spoke that light into the darkness, the One who speaks light into my life and heart. When tomorrow forgets love and laughter and knows only the aches of a fragile heart, remind me of my home in the clouds where tears shall be no more. When tomorrow forgets to slow down, remind me of just how precious my time is here on earth. When it forgets of the black and white that once was, remind me of just how dangerous a slope the grey is. When it forgets to deal with the pain and chooses to run far from the problem, remind me of Your closeness to my heart, the rest I will find in You, and of the healing that can come. When it forgets to live passionately and sing loudly, remind me of the vibrant and determined spirit you gave me. When it forgets to love and care for the outer vessel you blessed me with, remind me of just how beautiful this temple, Your temple, truly is. When voices from tomorrow lead me astray and tear me down, remind me of the hope and promises you have left with me, that you whisper into my heart. When tomorrow leads me down road after abandoned road, remind me of the abandonment I will never find in you, remind me of the acceptance and open arms You'll always offer me. When tomorrow seems as though it's too much, remind me of the plans you have for me. When I am decieved by tomorrow's shame, remind me that I am desired by You, even still. When with each new breath a battle starts, remind me of the battle You won, remind of the one You defeated. When tomorrow's struggles seem unbearable and unfair, remind me of the Cross, the reason I'm free from chains, the ultimate symbol of struggle, and a constant reminder of beautiful grace. When tomorrow forgets understanding and feels only confusion, remind me of the Peace that passes all understanding, remind me that worrying robs me of happiness. When tomorrow finds me with disdainful eyes, remind me that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. When tomorrow forgets contentment, remind me of the abundance of blessings that surround me and fill me up.

When tomorrow forgets, remind me. Remind me that this is the day that You have made and it is worth living.

Jesus, You are the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow, but when tomorrow forgets, remind me.
