Moment by Moment

THE moment just gone is as completely beyond our grasp as if it were separated from us by an eternity of time. The moment just in the future is just as much outside of our experience as is the one a million years ahead. The present moment is the only one with which we can deal. We live moment by moment. Our journey is taken step by step. We need only grace enough for the present moment. We can use only that which we can appropriate just now. Life is received only by living, and love is realized in the same way. From eternity to eternity God is, unlimited by time, but we are creatures of the now.
“Dying with Jesus by death reckoned mine, Living with Jesus the new life divine, Looking to Jesus till glory doth shine, Moment by moment, O Lord, I am thine.
“Moment by moment I’m lost in his love; Moment by moment I’ve life from above; Looking to Jesus till glory doth shine, Moment by moment, O Lord, I am thine.”
