Starting All Over Again
Every day a new beginning; we have the privilege to begin again. Never take for granted waking up each morning being able to do all your activities of daily living yourself. If you just reflect on the number of people that cannot do anything for themselves, you would thank God for the gift of mobility and clear thinking. There was a time when such an impairment was related to old age, but the young and the aged alike are disabled for one reason or another. With all the chaos in our world, all the ungodly acts against God and man, we are blessed because God has not given us what we deserve. The question is: Will we ever come to ourselves and understand what is going on in our world and why? For one full day try consulting God about everything you do…great and small. Then, just be nice to everyone, even people that are unpleasant. Just do it and keep it moving, expecting nothing in return. Their response is not about you but it reflects where they are in their life.
Psalm 103:9-10 (NIV)
He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; he does not treat us as our sins deserve or repay us according to our iniquities.
