Each day is a Gift

You ever think about time.  The Lord has given each of us twenty-four hours in a day, no more no less. How we spend the time in that day is up to us.

Psalms 118:24 says 'This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.'  Every day is a gift given to you from God.  Notice it says 'This is the day', it isn't talking about yesterday or tomorrow, it says this is the day, and as Christians we are to live our lives for Christ, so how can we maximize our day for the Lord?

First, we should read our Bible every day.  You cannot combat the enemies of this world on your own.  As you read the Bible, you will be equipped to face each day. 

Second, pray every day. We need to be in communication with our Lord every day, talking with Him, praising Him, thanking Him, and asking Him to help us through our day. 

Through God's word and through talking with Him in prayer we can maximize our day according to His will in our lives.  I have found in my life that when I make time for Christ in the beginning of my day, continually pray during the day, and end my day with Christ, all other things fall into place. 

My friend, we are given twenty-four hours in a day, don't waste it, each second counts.  My friend, What is driving your life?  Is it the temporal things of this world or eternity?  Colossians 3:2 'Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth'.

Face each day asking the Lord to lead you in the way He wants you to go. Today is the most important day of your life, don't waste it - live it for Christ.  Rejoice and be thankful for the day Christ has given you.
