“This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24
This – this day, this moment, gifted to me by my heavenly Father to enjoy and delight in.
Not yesterday. Yesterday is past. Let me not cling, tight-fisted, to what is gone.
Not tomorrow. Tomorrow is not yet come. Let me not dwell on its uncertainties and unrealistic expectations.
This – I will savor what is right in front of me – consciously, fully, so I won’t miss those subtle God nudges or a single one of His mercies.
This—I will give this day my undivided attention. I will live in the moment, eagerly watching God’s plans slowly unfold in front of me as He leads me through each part of it.
Today has been given to me—a gift—I will rejoice and be glad because He is in it.
Great word! Praise God!
