Stop and Thank…

Taste and see that the LORD is good.
Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!
Psalm 34:8

 When was the last time that you took the time to examine all of the blessings encountered in a routine day? Our daily routines are often self-focused on our immediate needs. This pattern of living will stunt our realization of true happiness and keeps us at a distance from God.

Every moment of every day is a precious gift. Some days are full of sorrow and some days are full of joy. Everything we experience is a proof of life and the reality of our existence. Take some time today to stop and thank God for what you have and for what you are about to receive.

Lord, I thank you in advance for this day
and await with anticipation
the glory and splendor of the world around me.

Help me to see the world and others
as you see them

that I might be able
to help someone find your joy.

Amen
