"Yesturday...Is not quite what it could have been..."

"It seems I get so hung up on / the history of what's gone wrong..."

I'm starting to realize that there's nothing that I can do to fix what was. I can only do my best, through Jesus, who has saved my life, oh so graciously, not because I deserved it, but because He Loves me unconditionally. I can only do what I do each and every day because of Him and what He has done for me.

"...I'm finally catching onto it...yeah the past is just a conduit..."

The past makes us who we are now; don't ever regret things that happened in your past. I know that I don't. If I hadn't gotten so deep into depression and everything else that happened my Junior year, I would not have found God in such a powerful way as I did. And also, the mistakes that we will make will make us who God wants us to be. He chisels us into more of His image with each hardship that we endure, each rough patch smoothing out a sharp corner or taking off a stray bump.

"..I'm on the up and up / cause I haven't given up / on what I know I'm capable of..."

Doing what I know He wants of me is what gives me joy; focusing on what He wants, reading His word, focusing on others' needs before my own, before what I want. The best days that I have are the ones that I don't focus at all on myself. They are the ones in which I am serving and focusing on God and on His people.

"Cause You're the reason why / ...I'm on the up and up... / I'm just trying to be a better version of me for You..."

Being the best I can be, each and every day, all for Him.
