Tomorrow



I’ve heard this song, vaguely heard the lyrics thought it was kinda catchy.  The Winans family sang it en masse at Whitney’s funeral, saying they sought her out because they heard she sang this song at her concerts.  Last night, I was listening to my new favorite diddy “Me” by Tamia on youtube and up popped Tamia singing “Tomorrow.”  I thought I would give it a listen to and wow!  Wow!


Jesus said,
“Here I stand, won't you please let me in?”
And you said,
“I will tomorrow”

Jesus said,
“I am He who supplies all your needs”
And you said,
“I know, but tomorrow,
Ooh, tomorrow,
I'll give my life
Tomorrow,
I thought about today,
But it's so much easier to say”

Tomorrow,
Who promised you
Tomorrow,
Better choose the Lord today,
For tomorrow very well might be too late

Jesus said,
“Here I stand, won't you please take my hand?”
And you said,
“I will tomorrow”

Jesus said,
“I am He who supplies all your needs”
And you said,
“I know, but tomorrow,
Ooh, tomorrow,
I'll give my life
Tomorrow,
I thought about today oooohh,
But it's so much easier to say”

Tomorrow,
Who promised you
Tomorrow,
Better choose the Lord today,
For tomorrow very well might be too late

And who said tomorrow would ever come for you
Still you laugh and play and continue on to say,
“Tomorrow”
Forget about tomorrow
Won't you give your life today oohh
Please don't just turn and walk away
Tomorrow,
Tomorrow is not promised
Don't let this moment slip away
Your tomorrow could very well begin today


Tears flowed down my cheeks and I prayed.  I prayed for the people who know the Truth and all they have to do is let Him in, but they won’t because they can do it later. I prayed for these people who don’t understand that this is their last day on earth.  Their last chance to accept Him.  This is their tomorrow.

I prayed for the kids who grew up in hearing the Word, whose parents took to heart Deuteronomy 11:18 – 20, “ Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.  Write them on the doorframes of your houses and on your gates.”  These kids who know who supplies all their needs, yet they keep saying, I totally will- - tomorrow.

You just have to raise your hands and say, “God is good.  God is good.”

Pray for these people whose hand is on the door to let Him and they won’t turn the knob.

Tomorrow is not promised to any of us.
