What a Day

It’s up and at them at the break of dawn and off to school. Another beautiful day God has blessed me with. Let’s see we need to be out the door by 7 A.M., past the elementary school, and up the hill by 7:08, down the highway and to my first turn by 7:18, and at the school by 7:25. Well, we made it by 7:24. Grab your bag and lunch and greet fellow teachers and students as you head to the office and check in for the day.

Let the day begin with a smile, chit-chat with students and see what’s going on with them as one smiles and another is sleepy, and another can’t wait to greet their friends. Everyone is ready for a wonderful day at school. Well, most everyone.

How is your day? Are you ready to enjoy the day the Lord has blessed you with? I hope you are ready to go. As you continue with your day remember someone needs you today and by remembering the Lord thy God, thy creator, you are the answer to someone’s prayer as you go through your daily challenges. Stay in tune with the Lord and minister to each door that is open. One never knows what that door may be but as we continually pray without ceasing we will be prepared to love that soul that is in need.

Recently my wife felt the need to go visit a man who had but a few hours to live. She wanted to make certain he was ready to meet the Lord. When she arrived at this home she found him too far out of it to talk with him but his wife said he had repented and accepted the Lord. She was happy to hear this so she took time to read the Bible and sing to him and the family as they faced these last few moments together. Will you go?

You may say I can’t do that. You are right but when you are led by the Spirit of God, he will do it thru you and you will be fed as the Lord Ministers to the one in need. When God touches you don’t go tell your pastor or someone else to do it. God is speaking to you and you are the one that is responsible. It is an awesome feeling when you feel the joy of the Lord in your heart when you have been obedient to His voice. Sometimes it feels like you just got saved again.

So, what are you waiting on, keep on going with your day and allow the Lord to perhaps scare you to death when he touches you to do extraordinary things thru Him. God bless you and have a wonderful day in the Lord.

Remember:

1John 1:9 "If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrightousness."
