“With the
LORD a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day” (2
Peter 3:8).
So what’s our
big hurry? Have you ever watched the news when they show the traffic report of
a large city from a helicopter—all the cars speeding along on the highways
diverting off on feeders and exits going north, south, east, and west and doing
eighty miles an hour—looking like millions of busy little ants. Busy, busy,
busy chattering on our cell phones, doing what we think is vitally important—trying
to make the most of our day.
Wait a second
what’s wrong with this picture? Are we truly making the most of our day(s)? I
hope we are. If we are starting our day with a prayer acknowledging God’s plan
for our day, and during the day we stop every once in a while to thank Him for
all He has given us. If at the end of the day we get down on our knees and
thank Him for our jobs, our spouses, our children, or friends, the homes we
live in, our financial resources, our health, our nation, our leaders. If every
chance we get during the day we pray for Jerusalem,
and His peace in the world.
What is truly,
no vitally, important about our day is that we first honor our LORD, Jesus
Christ thanking Him for our salvation; acknowledging that without Him our day
would no doubt be hell. Thank you Jesus for saving our day!
I pray you have a blessed day today!
