Attitude of Gratitude - It's a New Day - Day 1

Teach us to number our days and recognize how few they are, help us to spend them as we should.” Psalm 90:12 TLB

News of yet another random shooting, another fatal auto accident, another missing person fill the headlines once again. It’s a near-daily reminder that we are not on this planet at our own will and design and that each day is a day that can not be returned once spent.


Today is a new day – a new start – a new adventure and I want it to count for everything. Should tomorrow take me to heaven, I want to have lived and loved well…to not have withheld love, kindness, goodness or encouragement from anyone, but to have added to the lives of those with whom I come in contact.

So I will number this day 1 and tomorrow day 1 and the next day 1 as well, planning to live each with the life and newness every new dawn brings.

Let’s go out and live, love and learn this day as though it’s our first opportunity ever to do so.

Have a great day!
