God. Has. This. Because. He. Has. Us.
So you, dear one, need to know that you are double-targeted by two very large powers. No wonder some days are a scrambled mess, huh? Therefore, I cheer you on through reminder of who you are coupled with your Creator/Colleague.
Perhaps we could have a very good day if we could admit that we are all alike. While being regretfully injured by others, we injure....others on the very same day and often on the very same turf. Just as we must have/really need mercy, we very much must offer it to our offenders.
Perhaps we could have a very good day if we were to vocally rehearse the large quantity of really good breaks we are receiving. Yes, we undeniably encounter our own personal train wrecks. Yet even more true, we float down the steady soothing rivers riding on the boat of gratitude, joy, and love. We have so many in our lives of whom we are just crazy about! Think. On. These. Things.
Whatever it is you encounter that offends your heart today, you can rest assured that you do likewise to others. That's the broken life we navigate day by day. Such doesn't depress us as much as it reminds us to ease up on our friends and relatives. Rather than being their chiefest critic, maybe we could actually become more like Jesus and die to ourselves that others might go through their day healed because of our sacrifice.
Ah, there's an idea! May you now have a much better day than you might have intended!! When you do...so will those around you!!!
