Music Monday- "Waiting for Tomorrow"

This is a newer song by Mandisa, called "Waiting for Tomorrow". 


Maybe tomorrow we'll start over
Maybe tomorrow I will finally change my ways
Said the same things yesterday
Don't know why I'm so afraid
To let you in
To let you win
To let you have all of me

Can't spend my whole life wastin'
Everything I know I've been given
'Cause you've made for so much more than
Sittin' on the side lines
I don't wanna look back and wonder
If good enough could've been better

Everyday's a day to start over
So, why am I waiting for tomorrow

Maybe today I'll start believing
That you're mercy is really
As real as you say it is
It doesn't matter who I used to be
It only matters that I've been set free
You rescued me you're changing me
Jesus take everything

Can't spend my whole life wastin'
Everything I know I've been given
'Cause you've made for so much more than
Sittin' on the side lines
I don't wanna look back and wonder
If good enough could've been better

Everyday's a day to start over
So, why am I waiting for tomorrow

Oh, I'm makin this my moment now
To grab the hand that's reachin down to save me You saved me
And I'm makin this my moment now
To grab the hand that's reachin down to save me You saved me

Can't spend my whole life wastin'
Everything I know I've been given
'Cause you've made for so much more than
Sittin' on the side lines
I don't wanna look back and wonder
If good enough could've been better

Everyday's a day to start over
So, why am I waiting for tomorrow

I'm gonna grab the hand that's reachin down
And I'm not gonna wait until tomorrow
Oh, tomorrow

You can listen to the song on YouTube here.


What does this song mean to me? It is a call to action, to be a doer of the Word of God, not just a hearer. If I want to start over doing what is right, what God calls me to do, I need to do it TODAY. I don't want to have regrets, or be wishing that things would change soon. I want to change what I need to change starting today. If I want to feel better physically, (which I do) then I need to do a workout today! I need to let God take over my life, and do HIS work in me, so why not start now?

How about you, is there something you need to work on that you are putting off? Why not start NOW?
