song was written in 1999 from the statement made to me by an elderly woman. Yesterday is forgiven, today is for sure, and tomorrow He holds in His hands!

Story behind the song
a person told me many years ago, Yesterday is forgiven, today is for sure, tomorrow He holds in His hands. She stated she just felt led to say this to me and that is all she said. I never could shake it, and as time went by every time I faced something hard, I could hear her voice repeating this to me! Yesterday IS forgiven, today IS for sure, and all of our tomorrows are in His hands!
