Hi there
This morning has the sun shining itself on me. This day has brought new chances, new opportunities, new hope. I am excited to learn more about this day. I am encouraged that I woke up this morning with joy in my heart. I love this day already. I am excited to know what this day holds for me. Today is the day that the Lord has made. I cannot be sad knowing that my Saviour loves me.
Church on Sunday truly set me up for the week. I went to my old family church. The old Lutheran church in my area - traditional and yet peaceful. I appreciated the peace I felt in my heart as we sung some classic hymns. I saw memories of my past experiences as a little one racing, playing, learning in Bible school and singing songs. It brought back good memories as I walked into the hall of this great church. It was just how I remembered it to be. Wow! I was proud to step foot into my family church. The smell of the old building and the pastor dressed in white robes, such respect, and candles lit starting the service. I was proud to know that they kept this tradition alive. Kids came to the front for a short message as we all listened. It was a precious moment to know how much Jesus loves the little children as well and how close they are to his heart.
As an adult, I realize that it is easier to be distracted by issues and problems that present themselves to me in the world, but I am encouraged to be reminded that I am not alone in this. I have my Saviour looking out for me and my family. There is this joy that helps me to survive in this broken world. There is this peace that calms my busy mind and helps me to overcome my greatest obstacles.
This day has become more beautiful knowing how much I am loved and cared for.
