THIS is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24
THIS is the only day we have. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow will never be. ALL we can possibly live in is TODAY! God tells us to rejoice in this day. Some of us find it difficult to rejoice for all that is going on in our lives, or around us. But, as long as we have breath in our bodies and God is GOD, nothing is impossible and the possibilities are endless. Rejoicing in THIS day, puts our faith squarely in God and not in what is around us. Rejoicing frees us up to be all we are meant to be today. On the other hand, despairing and dwelling on those things around us that would want to get us down, depletes our energy, faith and drives a wedge in our relationship with God.
Surely God is greater than all things and anything. He made the universe and the orbiting planets. He made vibrant, organized life in a blade of grass. He created our brains so that we can see images of memories, even when they are not before us. He lets us remember the difference between the taste of a hamburger and taco, when deciding what to order on a menu. What a marvelous thought, that we can see things that are not in front of us and taste what is not in our mouths. What can't God do?
Determining to keep our focus on the God who created all this and everything else, keeps us wide open to His impossible possibilities. He simply tells us to rejoice in today, by placing our faith in HIM. Doing so, sets us free to enjoy HIM, while He works all things together for our good and His glory, ( Romans 8:28).
If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but gave Him up for us all - how will He not also, along with Him graciously give us all things?
Romans 8:31,32
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.
Romans 8:37
And my God will meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:19
God bless you all Today,
