Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning,
for I am trusting you.
Show me where to walk,
for I give myself to you. Psalm 143:8 NLT
We can set the atmosphere for our daily living. I feel like I am at my best when I take the time to set the stage for my day. A good start begins with a prayer of thanksgiving to the Lord for another day; just taking a few moments before anything else to invite the Holy Spirit into my day. Taking a brief time of thanksgiving and stillness in God to reflect on His goodness and His power makes all the difference. My office and my car are places of peace where I listen to uplifting messages or encouraging music. Inspirational notes and pictures of loved ones adorn my desk that keeps a smile on my face. They are visual reminders of God’s blessings to me. Throughout the day, I can keep soft music or something edifying playing in the background. I want to surround myself with peace and reminders of Him.
I am thankful for this time and this place in my life. I am thankful for the opportunity to surround my life with reminders of His love, mercy and goodness to me. I praise God for another day. I bless His Holy name for a day ahead filled with love, peace and joy that flows from Him.
Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits. Psalm 103: 1-2
