A Daily Devotional

About starting out the day:

Psalm 50:14 (NIV) Sacrifice thank offerings to God, fulfill your vows to the Most High, (NIV)

Think about God the first thing in the morning. Start out your day in a spirit of thanksgiving as you thank God for the many blessings He has bestowed upon you. Start out your day by counting your many blessings while you listen and talk to God as your day begins. Most of us are so hurried and harried in the morning, we forget to take a moment and look around at all God has given us. When we forget to look around and count our blessings we can easily be deceived into thinking we have nothing in life or our life is full of curses. When we do not count our blessings in the morning, we forget to rejoice during the rest of the day. At the start of the day, when you count your blessings the rest of the day will take on God's glow of warmth. In the tough and dark times of life, especially during your trials and tribulations, start your day with a little thank you to God for all God has given you. When you start out your day by thanking God, He gives you extra fuel to power you through the rest of the day as you live for Him.
