A New Day
When I awoke this morning, Lord
my first thought was of You. For you have given me another day by Your grace and love so true. Now how I spend this day, dear Lord, You’ve left that up to me. I can choose to be smiling and happy and be kind to all I see. Or I can choose to be down and sad like a weeping willow tree. Thinking not of my fellow man, but thinking just of me. Since another day I might not see, as nothing is guaranteed. I need to live each day I have sharing how my soul You freed. It’s not easy in this world today to keep oneself from worry. I live in such a high-tech world. I’m always in a hurry. I’m working at a stressful job trying to make a living. I often forget Your promise, Lord that You would do the giving. You promised if I’d trust in You that You’d always provide. No matter what I faced each day, You’d be close by my side. I also need to remember, Lord the depth of Your constant love. You promised to be here for me. I need only look above. At times I need a reminder, Lord that I am only me. I cannot do it by myself, for You, Lord, are the key. So on this day, You’ve given me, I choose to live it well. Others will know I love You for by my actions they can tell. |
