WHY NOT SEIZE TODAY?

Have you thanked Him?
Have you praised Him?
Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?
Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?

1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)
1-3The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.

"Every experience God gives us, every person He puts in our lives is the perfect preparation...”
― Corrie ten Boom

“Jesus said, ‘No procrastination. No backward looks... SEIZE the DAY.’” (Luke 9:62 MSG)

The DAYS can “run together” can’t they?
How many times have you said, “What day is it anyway?”
Or is that just me?

Truth is, TODAY is important.
GOD made it so we are to REJOICE, BE GLAD and CELEBRATE it. Psalm 118:24

Our recovery brethren understand this concept.  They “practice” one day at time.  

And GOD is SO wise.  He implemented that GOOD counsel long ago.

He told us to not dwell in the past.
He told us not to be overly consumed with tomorrow things either…
Matthew 6:34(NIV)
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.

So we need to be “present in the present”.

Ask yourself...
What is GOD showing me today?
Who am I to intersect?
What am I to do with those interactions?
What is today PREPARING me for?

SEIZE today with Him leading!

Let’s make the most of it by taking it on in a way that He would want us to!
Psalm 119:5 (MSG)
Oh, that my steps might be steady, keeping to the course you set; Then I’d never have any regrets…

Today, many will awaken with a fresh sense of inspiration. Why not you?
Today, many will open their eyes to the beauty that surrounds them. Why not you?

Today, many will choose to leave the ghost of yesterday behind and seize the immeasurable power of today. Why not you?

Today, many will break through the barriers of the past by looking at the blessings of the present. Why not you?

Today, many will take the action necessary to make a difference. Why not you?

Today, many will make the commitment to be a better mother, father, son, daughter, student, teacher, worker, boss, brother, sister, & so much more. Why not you?

Today is a new day!
Many will seize this day.
Many will live it to the fullest.
 Why not you?”

Praying for an AMAZING DAY for you! 
I love you all!
