It is Friday, and as an added bonus it just so happens to be beautiful outside. If you threw in a well mixed Tim Horton’s Iced Capp and an impromptu leave of absence from work the day would be absolutely perfect. On a day like today I just can’t help but have Psalm 118:24 running through my head and over my lips.
Psalm 118:24
This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Today is indeed a day that the Lord has made, and I will rejoice and give him the glory in it. However, the same can also be said of the days which lack well mixed Ice Capp’s and boast of inclement weather. I will rejoice in those days too. How can someone rejoice in the less than stellar days? The answer can be found in the first four verses of the selfsame chapter; “His steadfast love endures forever.”
Four times in four verses it states that God’s love endures forever. It is pretty clear to me that the author wants to get the point across that God’s love will survive any situation, any circumstance, and outlast time itself. Therefore, in good days or bad, whether I am feeling “it” or not, I will rejoice in the day he has made because I know his love endures. Please go and do the same.
