New Day, Rejoice
Do you have great joy in your heart today?
It is simply too easy to focus on all the things that are bad. The television, newspapers and Internet sites are full of all the bad news as well as scary speculation. They thrive on it. We tend to believe the scary speculation. Why would we not choose to believe positive speculation?
Probably the biggest reason is that people think positive thinking is for those not smart enough to understand the problem.
2 Corinthians 5:7 …we walk by faith, and not by sight…
Psalm 70:4 Let all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; And let those who love Your salvation say continually,”Let God be magnified.”
Our faith can be negative, or positive. It is time we believe that change can bring wonderful opportunity. Try letting go of the sadness and fear. There might be some life changing task you could do better than any one else. But hanging onto the past prevents you from being available for the miracle. Transform yourself from, “I lost my job” to “I have an opportunity now to be blessed and find truly meaningful work that I will love and still make great money.”
Father God, we rejoice in this day. We are so happy and grateful for the new opportunities that come to us now in your wise and perfect ways. Let us all have fulfilling work. Let us be open and receptive to the new work you have for us. Let us prosper, and allow us to serve and we go through the changes and find our way. Guide us. Fill us with the holy spirit that we may know your will in our live. We believe you love us and want us all to rejoice in you. Amen
