"This is the day which the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it." -Psalms 118:24 (NASB)
I was listening to John Denver while driving in the car today. In one song, John Denver sings, "Some days are diamonds and some days are stones..." In life, we have our ups and downs, our good days and bad days. Sometimes it might feel that our not so good days are strung together in a long line. Even in the midst of these days, we need to remember to rejoice!
We all have good days and not so good days, but each of these days serves a purpose in our lives. God made each of these days and placed them in our lives. We can learn from good days, the diamonds. We can learn to be humble and to give God thanks and praise for the blessings we receive. We can learn from not so good days, the stones. We can learn to rely on God, to learn from the experiences He places in our lives, and to give God thanks and praise for accompanying and strengthening us through all that we face. Each day we are given by God is a blessing and we should rejoice and be thankful for it!
Whether your day is a diamond or a stone, thank God for His blessings in the day He has given you!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for always being with me and for strengthening and guiding me. Help me through whatever I face and remind me that I should always be rejoicing in what You have given me. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
