Muir’s Morning Motivational Minute

‘It’s a great day to have a great day!’

I woke up this morning and immediately when my eyes opened I started thinking about the long list on ‘my plate’ for today. Easily, Wednesday is my longest, busiest most tiring day, and on this Wednesday (today) I have a couple other tasks that just added to my worry and concern … before my feet even hit the floor.

Almost in the same instance that I was trying to prioritize my ‘crisis list’ for the day, a simple verse came to my mind – ‘This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.’ Isaiah 41:10

As I pondered that wonderful verse I asked myself a very important question: ‘How can I rejoice and be glad in this day that God made for me if I’m stressed out and worried about whether I get my work list done or not?’ As I felt a calmness settle in (rare for me) I decided that I was going to rejoice in this (beautiful) day, work hard and do all I can do. However, what doesn’t get done will just have to stay undone for right now.

God’s blessings to you on this day that the Lord has made! Rejoice and be glad because of this day you’ve been given, have a wonderful Wednesday and a blessed day!
