Today has been such a beautiful day. It was filled with sunshine, fresh air, friends, burgers on the grill and family. I walked around the yard and enjoyed seeing all of the fresh new growth. It is truly a gift from God when we have beautiful days like this.
When you change your frame of mind, you can find beauty in even the darkest of days. The cloudy days used to really depress me. If the sun wasn't shining, then I knew that my mood would be of despair. However, I have changed that frame of mind. I have come to look at each and every day as a beautiful day. After all, even the sun needs a chance to rest once in a while. And when you have Jesus in your heart, the Son will shine throughout the darkest of days. How wonderful a day that will make!
One of my favorite verses is Psalm 118:24. It reads: "This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it". Before I was old enough to know scripture, I would hear my grandmother at her organ in the living room singing that hymn to the top of her lungs. How I love that song!
Every day is a beautiful day. You know why? Because it is a gift from God!
Have a truly blessed day!
