And behold, they are risen with Him. He descended into our Hell. And now the Light shines in the very deeps of our darkness, and no darkness can ever be deep enough to put it out. It is a truism to say that today is the only day that we have. Yesterday is gone.
Tomorrow is but a dream.
But today is here with all its infinite possibilities. To live fully, the Psalmist says, there is no room like the present. Sometimes we miss today, because we live in the past. Or past mistakes that we have never quite lived down, or for which we have never effectively sought forgiveness, so burden us that today is wasted on regret and remorse. Sometimes we miss today because we want to live in the future.
