A number of years ago as I was driving to work I asked the Lord to help me get through the day . . . just get me to 5:00 this afternoon. I realized that thinking this way was a huge waste. I realized as I prayed that I didn’t want to just “get through” the day.
To exist through a day denies so much . . . it denies me a life.
To exist through a day denies so much . . . that God loves me and has a plan for me.
It denies that my family has a need for me.
It denies that I have a place in this world to make a difference.
To exist through the day denies that I have life . . . it actually denies that I will even have a life . . . for to exist through the day is not to live.
Don’t exist through your day . . . live your life to the fullest . . .
What wonderful wisdom for the day. How often do I miss the abundant riches of God’s grace, mercy, love, and blessings because I am simply living to survive!
I love Psalm 84:11-12 Each day abounds with His Goodness, and all I need and more to live, grow, survive, and flourish. I need to open my heart and eyes to see and to be all I can be in Christ!!
Thank you!
