This is It

Psalm 118 This is the Lord’s doing; It is marvelous in our eyes. This is the day which the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Do you ever wake up and open your blinds, look outside, see the sun or the clouds or the rain, and comment to yourself, “This is the Lord’s doing?”

We should practice this daily.  When we wake up, and we breathe, and we move our legs, and we see where we’re going, and we hear the first sounds of the morning, and we observe His handiwork…we need to realize it’s the Lord’s doing and it’s marvelous.

We need to marvel at what he does for us daily, every moment, every hour, every day.

I know that when I do this I do feel like rejoicing in the day, instead of complaining from the start.

When we fail to do this, we go through the motions, we get in the car, we arrive at our destination and our minds are completely full of worry, anxiety, fear and angst, all because we failed to realize the marvelous beginnings to our day and where they originated.

Rejoice.

Be glad.

Marvel.
