This Is The Day...

I will praise thee: for thou hast heard me, and art become my salvation. The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes. This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. (Psa 118:21-24)

(Yeah, I'll rejoice. Just let me get a hot shower and a cup of coffee in me so I can think straight.)

This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

(Crap. Now it's raining again. Why did it have to rain today when I need to wear my best suit to work.)

This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

(Yeah, just as soon as all these jerks get off the road and stop cutting me off, I'll rejoice a lot about that. Where did these idiots learn to drive anyway?)

This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

(Man, I'll rejoice when those goof-offs I have to work with stop with all the BS and get some work done. Gossip, gossip, gossip, all day long. Yakkitty Yak. Can't they see they need to do things the way I told them...)

This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

( and now the boss is goofing off with them. Am I the only one with any sense around here? How am I supposed to rejoice with all these people around? Why, God? Why me?)

This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

(Will you get those kids to just shut up for a while? I need some downtime here and when I get home I expect some respect for a change! Just a couple of drinks, a little TV so I can unwind. OK?)

This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

(I'll sure be able to rejoice when this day is over.)


Here's the thing: Jesus died for us. God accomplished His purpose. In that salvation, everyday is a day of rejoicing in God. Don't let all the little nuisance things, the trials of living, make you forget, because...

This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
