As Long As You Have Today, Enjoy Today

Psalm 118:24 (KJV) This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

This day, Today, is the day that The Lord has made. He has given us the privilege of living, breathing, thinking and moving Today. So, while it is called Today make the most of it! Enjoy Today to the full. Love those you are with Today. Tomorrow has not been guaranteed to anybody.

“Enjoy Today” is how a friend blesses me almost daily. Upon careful consideration of what Enjoy Today means to me, living for Jesus comes to mind and being thankful for all He has, is, and will do for me. Enjoying Today to me is to open my heart, and to keep it open, to the blessings, kindness, love, mercy and goodness the Lord extends to me each day.

This day, Today, this very day, is the Gift of the Lord to you! He made Today. He blessed it and He crowned it with His goodness. Stop dragging the worries of yesterday and the anxieties for tomorrow into Today. Forgive if you need to forgive. Put your hope and trust in The Greater One who lives inside of you. Today, and every day, permit nothing and nobody to terrify you or to draw your heart away from God.

This is the day You have made, Lord. Help me to rejoice and be glad in it. You do not want me living enslaved to the past or in a state of terror for the future. You want me to trust You for Today every day. Lord, I put my hope in You and not in the pictures of disaster and potential pain that keep flashing across my mind. I will come to You for daily strength with the belief that I have a sound mind because of Your Holy Spirit who lives in me.

I believe that You want me to live this Gift of a new day You have given me to the fullest, to the best of my ability and to Your glory. But I cannot do this life, let alone this day, without You. Holy Spirit, here is my Today. I ask that You would bless it and prosper it as only You can. May my every day be a delight in Your sight.  As long as I have Today, I am determined to Enjoy Today in and with You. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

You Are Deeply Loved

  Vignettes   You Are Loved.  You Are Deeply Loved For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have Everlasting Life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:16‭-‬17 Many years ago, when my family and I were still resident in Johannesburg, I asked the Lord, as I usually do at the start of each New Year, what He wanted His people to hear and to know. His reply? Tell My people I love them! Needless to say, I was very disappointed with that answer. I asked Jesus, Why tell people what they already know? Between you and me, I wanted God to give me a profound word that would shake people and change minds, hearts and lives.  Holy Spirit , though, was firm about what He wanted His people to hear. It is a message He has never stopped and will never stop teaching. It is a Word straight from the heart of God to the hearts o...

Vignettes Till The End Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come , it will not tarry. Behold the proud, his soul is not upright in him; but the just shall live by his faith . Jesus promised each generation of Believers since Adam that He would never leave nor forsake them. Jesus has been faithful. He has not left the side of those who Believe in Him and in the power of His name. It takes faith to know that God will be with you till the end. Till the end of what, you ask? Till the end of the age,  till the end of the world,  till the end of the devil's reign on the earth; till the end of what you are believing Him to perform in your life.  Till  the end  of your days on earth, too.  God is not a man that He should indulge in lies, saying one thing yet doing nothing. If God has said He will do something, you can rest assured it w...
