This is the Day

The LORD is my strength and my song;
He has become my salvation.
This is the day that the LORD has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.
-Psalm 118:14, 24
Even when "today" is disappointing . . . it is still the day that the Lord has made.
Even when "today" is frustrating . . . it is still the day that the Lord has made.
Even when "today" is sad, and I think I won't get over it . . . it is still the day that the Lord has made.
Even when "today" is messy and filled with unpacked boxes . . . it is still the day that the Lord has made.
Even when "today" is the worst kind of today . . . I will still proclaim what He has done.
He doesn't get to the end of the day and say, "That got totally out of hand. Wow."
He looks at my day and says, "That was the day that I made for you . . . today."
I will get up "today," and I will choose to give Him thanks, even for the bad days, for He is my salvation.
Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;
for his steadfast love endures forever!
-Psalm 118:29
