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)
The first thing I want you to do is pray.
Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.
Here’s what you need to keep in mind. You no longer have yesterday. You
do not yet have tomorrow. You have only today. This is the day the Lord has
made. Live in it. – Unknown
Reflect upon your present blessings of which every man has many - not
on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some. - Charles Dickens
You woke up today to a day loaded with
possibilities.
GOD has flooded it with compassion and
opportunity!
…enduring is God’s loyal love;
inexhaustible compassion.
Here they are, every morning, new! Your
faithfulness, God, is as broad as the day. Lamentations 3:22-23 (V)
What happened yesterday is a distant vapor.
Your “PRESENT” has the chance to be totally
influenced, steered, impacted, and blessed by HIS PRESENCE.
It is not too late.
Nope.
Yesterday not one of your best? Leave it.
I don’t care if yesterday was one of those when you
spilled the coffee all over the keyboard or one when the boss started right in
on you about a project that was just added to the slate or if the day was spent
in snarled traffic or with snarling competitors, GOD wants HIS best for THIS
day for you.
Give it room to breathe.
EMBRACE it.
Chase it.
And most of all activate HIM in it!
I awoke to a MUCH needed but simple prayer this
morning at 4:45am
“Lord, I want today to be about you, not me. Keep me from me. Let’s focus on the YOU in today. You made today for a purpose, let me walk in
that!”
Friends…
God is able to accomplish, provide, help, save, keep, subdue…He is able
to do what you can’t. He already has a plan. God’s not bewildered. Go to Him. –
Max Lucado
So, reflect on where you want to improve.
Learn from the past but don’t be hindered by it.
GO TO GOD and do a little soul searching.
Then commit to making the MOST of THIS DAY!
You remember that old lyric, that old familiar
refrain?
One day at a time sweet Jesus
That's all I'm asking from you.
Just give me the strength
To do everyday what I have to do.
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus
And tomorrow may never be mine.
Lord help me today, show me the way
One day at a time.
Here is your ONE DAY and HERE IS your TIME!
Remember…
The secret of your success is DETERMINED by your daily agenda. - John
C. Maxwell
Make TODAY’S a PURPOSEFUL one!!
I love you all…
OPPORTUNITIES
for HOPE
