Good Day

"...this is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it."- Psalms 118:24

sometimes i wonder what is so good about a day when people tend to get on your nerves or everything that whole day is just going from bad to worse.

what is the only thing consistant in a day? time. whether we want it to suspend or whether we want it to fleet from our vision, we are experiencing time.

it speaks in the book of Ecclesiasties, the third chapter that there is a time for everything. so back to the original statement...this the day the Lord has made...this is the time the Lord has made. what do you do with your time? do you waste it on careless things? do you focus on the bad things that may or maynot or actually have happened? they say time is a precious thing. so would you rather focus on the bad or the good...

..let us rejoice and be glad in it...

how can we rejoice? i know the answer and its just taking a breath,step and pace at a time. looking at the morning sky, looking at the beautiful sunset. having your eyes flash open from sleep. having breath come in your nostrils and out of your mouth. having limbs that arent confined to a bed. having words the flow from your lips and a voice to speak. having two ears to hear the sounds of life itself.

it speaks in the book of Phillipians to rejoice in the Lord always and again i say rejoice. so now we have something to view as a positive, the time and the feeling that comes along with the time.

this is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it
