Psalm 118:24

Psalm 118:24

This is the day the LORD has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it.

Every day is a gift granted to us by our Creator. Because God wastes nothing, he doesn’t create worthless days. God has given you the gift of life for another day, and he has a purpose for you in it. How might your day unfold differently if you woke up every morning with this verse on your mind? Would you feel more grateful or choose an attitude of joy instead of despair, resentment, or bitterness? Would you be more alert to God’s presence and activity and in turn more present to those around you? Try reciting this verse first thing in the morning for the next week and watch what happens to your attitude and awareness of God’s presence.
