TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
Do you see every day as a
blessed gift from God? Many times when we hear this, we may be tempted to
brush it off and say, “Yeah, yeah, I know. Every day is special.” But truly
it is! God ordained this day before the foundation of the earth. He has
already ordered blessings for you. He has already orchestrated the right
opportunities for you. He has already made the right connections for you. On
top of that, the air you breathe, the food you eat, and the sunshine on your
face are all part of the great blessing that God gives us daily.
Remember, we’re not promised
tomorrow, so why waste a single moment living life defeated and depressed?
Our attitude should not be, “I have to take care of the kids,” or “I have to
mow the lawn today.” It should be, “I get to take care of the kids God has
blessed me with,” or “I get to go out and mow the lawn today. That’s part of
the house that God has provided.” See every opportunity as a gift. Count your
blessings and watch Him multiply them exceedingly all the days of your life!
