Psalm 126:3
The Lord has done great things for us;
We are glad.
Congratulations you are alive. You are here. You are breathing. You woke up and got going. You are tackling the day, sharing yourself with the world, and being you! Whether today is a good day or a day of struggle you are doing it! You are doing your best. Your best may look different day to day, but you do what you need to do. Can you do better? Probably. There is always room to do better but there is no need to shame yourself for the gap between where you are and where you want to be. This is where you are at because this is where you are supposed to be.
Accept today in all it gives you, glory, imperfections, battles, and disappointments. This day is your day. It is a gift and not a punishment.
The enemy wants you to dread the day. He wants you to look upon the week in front of you and feel panic instead of rejoicing in all you get to do and be. He pushes you to resent your responsibilities. He wants your mindset to reside in a grayness of criticism. You have to do this, and you must accomplish that. If you are weighed down by the day, the week and all it is bringing you than you can’t move forward. You can’t think differently. You can participate in celebrating you or life.
God calls you to celebrate each day. Take it one day at a time and find the good in it. Don’t give up. Don’t tell yourself you are just getting by and that you are just surviving. Each day you get up and start, you are living. God wants you to give yourself credit. Lean towards the light of praise. You are here to thrive and not to just get by.
Prayer
Father God,
Thank you for a new day. Thank you for all life has to offer. Forgive me for getting lost in negativity and dread. Forgive me for putting pressure on myself that leads to being unmotivated. Help me to appreciate the date and to accept where I am and what I have at this moment. This is where you want me to be. May I trust in you and know you have planned a journey that is best for me.
Amen
