JULY 7
I Wandered Back To Yesterday

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 5:17
"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."

I wandered back to yesterday, to days that had gone by.
And thought of so many memories, I had to stop and cry.
Days when I was young, not so very long ago.
I remember them like yesterday, with all the pain and woe.
I thought about the things I’d done, my eyes again filled with tears.
I remembered them so vividly, though it has been so many years.
Things I would love to forget, but the memories linger on.
Oh how I wish that way back then, I could have known.
Mama took me to church, taught me right from wrong.
I remember so well, that the services were so long.
The teachers taught the Word of God, the preacher preached on hell.
Though I was just a child, I remember those services so well.
How I wish today that I had known the Lord, way back then.
If someone would have told me that He came to save from sin.
If I could have heard the truth, what a difference it could have made.
Why didn’t they tell me, that the price for my sin had been paid?
It was later in my life, when I found out what the Lord had done.
It was then I got under conviction, and accepted God’s dear Son!
He changed my life completely, made me what I am today!
I just wish I could have heard earlier, what the preacher had to say.
As I think back to yesterday, I wonder, friend, do you know,
Someone who needs to hear this story, oh why won’t you go.
And tell them the good news about our Savior’s love.
And what He has prepared for us in our home up above.
