I am thankful for Today
Not simply this moment or the next moment to come
But the moment of being able to choose
Which is not even a moment but instead it is ongoing kindness and enduring mercy
I am thankful that Today is the Father in Heaven
Regardless of my kiss to betray Him
My embarrassment to accept Him
Or my doubt to believe Him
Today is still Today
I am thankful it is still called Today
I am the thankful the era of man has yet to be crushed under the yoke of its own greed
I am thankful it is still called Today
And if those very words can be spoken then my own soul can still find the singular path of good
Today is the plow
And sharp is its path
But Today is the not the day heaven burns our land because it is beyond repair
For rebellion has yet to settle so deep and deceitfulness has yet to turn so hard
Today we plant
Today we water
For it is still the season of rescue
And the cycle of growth
Today is the day of salvation
