Living For Today

Living for today...sounds so easy. Is it really? I have found myself living in the past...holding on to the time God allowed me to have with Little Danny. On the other hand I find myself wishing for the future to come ever so quickly, hoping God chooses to bless us with another child.

I listened to a sermon from Jentzen Franklin yesterday titled 7,478 days. He started out by saying "This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it." Wow! Have you ever heard something so many times, but then hear it again, and it's like a light bulb goes off. It was amazing. This is the day...not yesterday, not tomorrow, but today is the day the Lord has made. He has made this day...what am I doing with it? Jentzen Franklin talked about how the devil wants to steal your joy by keeping your thoughts either in the past or in the future. The Lord has given me this day...and I will rejoice and be glad in it.

I will not allow the devil to steal my joy any longer. I will rejoice!
