Word of Encouragement for Every New Day ~ 25 Oct 2007

Word of Encouragement for Every New Day ~ 25 Oct 2007

Every second our heart beats and without fail we live to see the next day. What is the difference between a person who looks at life with thanks giving and a person who lives for the sake of living? The answer is obvious.

It is interesting that we all have hearts that beat and without fail we live to see the next day, but how we chose to live out that day and all the rest of our days make the difference. I pray and hope that we will be able to rewire our minds in a way that is always grateful and thankful, despite the circumstances.

People who are always grateful and thankful, there is something about them. It seems that if the worst things are thrown at them they have the ability to overcome, bounce back and grow stronger. Job in the Bible is a great example.

So, our heart beats, everyday we go on living, time passes and ticks away, our heart still beats; however, eventually our heart is going to stop beating. When that day comes, I’d like to picture you, yes you reading this today and myself included, grateful and thankful.

Grateful and thankful for what? For the life God has given us. Before our time is up, we might get illnesses, cancer, arthritis; we might not even get married, we could get divorced and say why God? We could on the other hand lose our love one without knowing why. We might have children and grandchildren; we could lose our children and ask why God why; we could lose our job, all our money, but in the end this question still remains: Will you still love GOD?

Grateful and Thankful, God we seek you right now, and say, “no matter what I’m going through, experiencing in life right now, in my heart I say to you God, that I am grateful and thankful for You in my life. Father, I give You my life, You take control, and I live by Faith not by sight.”

Romans 8:28 I am assured that all things work together for good.

Romans 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? (say right now, declare it to God, “I cannot be separated from the love of God”)
