Take a deep breath. Take a few minutes to let the
stress go. Today will be just a memory in a short while and, soon, the years
will be adding up behind you faster than you can imagine. Those days you
thought you wouldn’t survive? You did. The grief you would never get through?
You made it. The what-ifs you worried yourself sick over? Most never saw the light of day.
Today,
appreciate the job. Be a light to the people around you and not the complainer,
the grudge holder, the angry one in the crowd. Life is so short. What if,
because of Christ, we can make life a bit brighter, more hope-filled, an answer
to prayer, an avenue to fill a deep need? What if today is different? Take a
breath. Savor it. Say a prayer. Help a stranger. Make a phone call. Bring light
into the darkness.
Let
your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify
your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:16
Father,
Lift us out of worry, anger, greed and wasted days.
Fill us with Your kind of love and hope. Remind us to stop, savor, pray and
listen just for today.
In Jesus name,
Amen
