Blog Post 2/12/2023 - Live each day for the Lord and you will live each day well

 

*Live each day for the Lord and you will live each day well 

St. Francis de Sales advises us to:  

1.    Don’t let the past drag you down. Develop short memories when it comes to hurts.  Ask God for forgiveness and be humble to accept it.

2.    Don’t fear the future.

Yesterday is gone, when tomorrow gets here it is today. So, offer the Lord your best today because it is the best reparation for tomorrow.

3.    Be appreciative. Show gratitude often.

“All that we have and all that we are come from God.”  So, we should count our blessings, St. Francis de Sales encourages us with these hope-filled words “This life is short, but it is valuable, for by means of it we are able to gain eternal life.

May God Be Praised.
