Good Morning


 Fresh morning, fresh hopes, fresh plans, fresh efforts, fresh success, fresh feelings: Good Morning.
 
I read this up in an article: "Somebody has said there are only two kinds of people in the world. There are those who wake up in the morning and say, "Good morning, Lord," and there are those who wake up in the morning and say, "Good Lord, it's morning."

It made me chuckle as much as it made me think. The first is out of appreciation. It is an indication that another opportunity in life is given to them. It means it is another day to go out, make impact and earn results. It is another day for change. It’s another time for God’s word to come through. However, the second group voices agitation; caused by factors of everyday living such as: unfinished assignments being carried out against time; panic; a demand portraying one’s incapability; emotional stress; frustration; fatigue and a desperate need for rest. Every such reason may be duly accommodated as sound. Such is the life of a human being.

Note this: Now we have this treasure in clay jars, so that this extraordinary power may be from God and not from us. We are pressured in every way but not crushed; we are perplexed but not in despair; we are persecuted but not abandoned; we are struck down but not destroyed - 2 Corinthians 4:7-9, HCSB

I bring you encouragement this moment that the demand on your strength, talents, time and energy each day is not to kill you. Rise up to them knowing that Jesus has got your back so you can only win in any situation, no matter what. Face it and give life to it!
