This is the day that the Lord has made

When you start your day, are you excited or depressed? Do you look at your workload and wonder how you’ll make it? Are you as exhausted getting up as you were going to bed? If so, something has to change.

Start your day with God. Give Him everything you have to do. Hand it over. He said His load is easy and His burden is light. He wants to carry yours.  Ask Him to help you with all your tasks. Ask Him for wisdom and favor.

This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. (Ps 118:24) Choose to rejoice, regardless of how you feel. Be joyful. There is so much to be happy about when you live under the shadow of His wings. (Ps 91)

And whatever you do, do it heartily as to the Lord and not to men. (Col 3:23) When you live your life for God and honor Him. He promises to bless you. When you put your life in His hands, He promises that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. (Rom 8:28)

Bless the Lord and be happy. It’s going to be a great day.
