Each and every night you go to sleep. The thoughts and struggles of the day are passing through your mind, at 100MPH. "Did I make the right decision?" "What would I do differently?" "Will tomorrow be any different?" "If I only had more time..." "If I only could..."

Since God blesses us each and every day with a blessing, what if you woke up and everything was just how you had left it? The sun was set, the outside was dark...the birds were still fast asleep and the grass was dry. The clock says "7:16am" but there were no signs of the day coming. There were only signs of night. People were getting in their cars to go to work, traffic was awful as always but no sun...or no freshness of it being another day.

We all have those days when we question ourselves, but if we step back and evaluate our lives or our situations from the outside looking in, you will notice something. At the end of each day, we go to rest and are awake with a brand new day with the hopes of it being different. When you go outside, you see the glorious sun shining low, just peaking through the trees and the birds chirping their melody to their own song. The grass is pristine with a slight dew affixed on top of them. Each and every day is a miracle from God our Father. Thank goodness for a new day everyday.

This is why God is amazing. God does not live in the past, nor should we. We should not let frustrations or situations we face daily in our lives effect those days and decisions before us. We serve a mighty God...one that is, and was and will be to come. "Cast your cares upon him and He will make your paths straight." He is asking that we give everything to him. That closeted sin, that struggle, that anger . . . that problem that we are too selfish to give over. God is there for you. He wants nothing more than your everything.

To HIM be all glory and praise!
