Thank God!

Today is a new day! YAY! Lord I thank you for today, for today is the day you have made, and your mercies are new everyday. God put this on my heart this morning, that every day is a new day and in this day are many opportunities to start afresh. My attitude lately has not been the greatest, I have this shocking tendency towards complaining, and not just lately I would say I have had it since I was taken out of my mother’s womb. Just think about it when you are a baby you cry and what was this crying but complaining without words. I think about all my complaints and most of them if I really stop to think about them are complaints against the Lord. (Why cant this be different, Why cant traffic move any faster, When am I going to get paid more, Why is the weather like this blah blah blah blah blah) Instead of wasting my breath on complaining against the Lord rather I should take the time he has given to me and pray for others or to praise Him for all that He has done in my life. God is good! It takes me getting my eyes off of my current situation and placing my eyes on Him to give me peace. Each of us, everyday, has many opportunities to start over, yet we choose to forsake these. This is a new day and my prayer for myself and for others is that we would start afresh, we certainly cannot change the past but we always have the present. Don’t, as I so often did, look to the past and say well I have already gone this far and rebelled against God for this long, so might as well take it to this day as well. No, THIS is the day the Lord has made and as long as we have this breath in our lungs there is hope for the future. Get right with the Lord before it is too late. Lord change my heart THIS day!
