Have a Good day...EVERYDAY!

Good morning, what a glorious day. Yes it is cloudy outside, dreary looking with no sun shining...but it is glorious nonetheless! God has blessed us to have eyes to see the clouds. We can see that the sun is not shining, we can see! We can hear the wind, and see the effects of it blowing, we have our hearing! The cool weather is arriving, and we can feel it! We have the ability to feel...we can see...we can hear...we are able to distinguish the heat from the cold, day from night, a sunny day from a cloudy day...many can't do that. There are some who don't even know who they are, don't even remember their own names. We are more blessed than we know! I do hope that you have already declared that your day is a gift from God and that it is a blessed one. I am so thankful for life, for being in Christ and saved and rescued by Him. I am so thankful that He loves me and always will, will always stand up for me, we always protect me and pray for me, and prosper me and always keep me with a sound mind, a healthy body, a peaceful, grateful, content spirit! I am so glad that Thanksgiving for me is EVERYDAY! I have too much to be thankful for to just confine it to one day out of the year. Who can do that? We all are so blessed. No, you may not have every single thing that you want today...but with Christ, it is only a matter of time! I have walked with God long enough to know that when it seems like those things that we want, are staying away from us, and it seems like God has not answered those prayers, He is always working behind the scenes. He has taught me to get up each morning, thank Him for the day and invite Him into the affairs of my day, expect Him to move in everything that day, and enjoy it! I have learned that He will cause all things to work for my good. Yes things happen that may not be pleasant, that may not be what we want, but I have learned to trust Him to work it out where it turns out for my good, even though it was supposed to take me out. We have ample opportunities each and every day to be stressed, depressed, bitter, anxious, mad, disappointed, and to have a bad day, just don't seize the opportunity...you know, like when you don't seize God given opportunities to enjoy His daily benefits, to experience His joy and peace, favor and grace, health and wholeness, and prosperity...you know! Just decide that you are going to have a great day, every day...that's all that I am saying...rain or shine, cold or heat, summer or winter...enjoy your day and your weekend! Decide that no matter what, you are going to enjoy the presence of God and His love with you today, and you are going to expect this day to be the best that you have ever had! Love you.
