Summer days are fleeting. Soon we’ll face the cool crisp autumn air. Time stops for no one. The reality is that no matter what you do today will soon be history and what we looked forward will soon be over. What do we make of this situation? The Bible is clear about our plight and offers help and hope from the One who created time and us.
We know it well, but it’s worth repeating, “This is the day the Lord has made. Let us be glad and rejoice in it.” It something like “eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow we die.” But as Christ’s disciples our outlook is not so fatalistic.
Our first perspective of any day is that it is a created gift of God. Though we are allotted so many days, each day must be faced with the right attitude, in our case with a celebratory joy. Surely this reflects upon the goodness and love of God who proclaims in promise “that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose” (Romans 8:28).
Rest assured each day is not just any other day. God has a vested interest in your day. He wants each day to be productive and to make a difference. The only problem is our will. Will we allow each day to center in God or ourselves? Let’s make each day an opportunity for God to use our lives.
In conclusion, remember that every day is a gift, every day passes quickly, and every day is an opportunity.
