Sometimes life is so hard! Sometimes life is

Sometimes life is so hard!

July 5, 2025

Sometimes life is so hard! Sometimes life is OK. Other times joy fills the air, and you are on cloud 9, life seems wonderful. So how is your day going? Will your day be a good day or not so good? Will this day be the best day ever! Today is the first day of the rest of your life. How do you think it will turn out? Because today you can feel sorry for yourself? Or will you can make the most out of this day, even in the ups and downs? We choose how our day will turn out. We choose to be happy, mad, sad, or glad. Psalm 5:3 reads, “In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.” This scripture emphasizes the practice of early morning prayer and presenting one’s needs to God. I have found when you wake up with God your day goes so much better. So, start your day with God. Tell Him good morning, give thanks, praise Him. And remember this is the day that the LORD has made let us rejoice and be glad in it. Praise God. God Bless. Amen.
