OUR DAILY BREAD

June 4, 2005

I was in a convenience store one day, standing in line behind a man paying for his groceries. When he was finished the clerk sent him off with a cheery " Have a great day!"

To the clerk's surprise ( and mine) the man exploded in anger " this is one of the worst days of my life" he shouted . " How can I have a great day?" And with that he stormed out of the store.

I understand the man's frustration; I too have " bad" days over which I have no control. How can I have a great day, I ask my self, when it's beyond my control?

Then I remember these words:
" THIS IS THE DAY THE LORD HAS MADE " Psalm 118:24

The LORD HAS MADE EVERYDAY, AND MY FATHER WILL SHOW HIMSELF STRONG ON MY BEHALF TODAY. HE HAS CONTROL OVER EVERYTHING IN IT, EVEN THE HARD THINGS THAT WILL COME MY WAY. ALL EVENTS HAVE BEEN SCREENED THROUGH HIS WISDOM AND LOVE, AND THEY ARE OPPORTUNITIES FOR ME TO GROW IN FAITH.

" His mercy endures forever "
" The Lord is on my side; I will not fear"

May be you have had an unexpected setback or loss. Your future is unknown. Trusting Jesus as your Savior and Lord, You can be sure of this : He WILL GO WITH YOU WHEREVER YOU GO. YOU CAN BELIEVE IT!

Whenever I feel the Christ is near, All cares and sorrows flee; He is my strength, my hope, my life, He's all in all to ME ( June 1,2005 )
