Psalms 118:24 NKJV
Be Present in the Moment: Trying to keep your mind on what is taking place at that moment can be hard, especially when you feel you have a hundred to a thousand other things running through your mind.
We can miss out on life’s most precious moments when we are not actively present in the moment God has blessed us to be in.
Remember tomorrow is not promised to any of us. So let us love and learn to appreciate the people in our lives today.
Of course, there are days when the last thing we want to do is rejoice. Our mood is down, our situation is out of hand, and our sorrow or guilt is overwhelming. We can relate to the writers of Psalms who often felt this way. But no matter how low the psalmists felt, they were always honest with God. And as they talked to God, their prayers ended in praise.
Tell God how you truly feel when you don’t feel like rejoicing. You will find that God will give you a reason to rejoice. God has given you this day to live and to serve Him – be glad.
Blessings,
Presiding Elder Barbara Hayes
