As I start off my day, I am wondering how the day will go. I know of appointments and plans on my calendar but what will the Lord put before me? I know He will give me strength to do whatever He desires of me. I also know He will help me to not just get through this day but to thrive.
This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24
I am trying not to be anxious or fearful of the day but with the way I've been feeling these last few days I am. It definitely won't be a day where I can lay on the couch for hours upon end but I'm thankful there will be rest periods in between things.
Being intentional on rejoicing…not allowing the enemy a foothold with fear…putting a smile not only on my face but in my heart…THIS is how I will start my day.
Dear Jesus,
Your Word tells me in many places to rejoice. Today I am rejoicing because it "is the day You have made." Lord, as I go throughout this day would You direct my steps and the words that come from my mouth? Would You put a smile on my face that isn't just pretend but is truly one of gladness? Would You touch my physical, emotional, mental and spiritual body with Your healing touch? Father, I am so grateful that I have You with me 24/7. You are so awesome in the way You encourage me. When I lay my head down tonight, I pray I will be reminded, "This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Woo hoo! I am feeling more at ease with this day…thank You Jesus! I am ready to be Your servant, however that looks for today. Thank You Jesus for being My Gladness! Amen.
