Did you roll out of bed this morning not really thinking that Monday is something to smile about? Did it seem impossible that it should be Monday already? That your weekend, your time of rest and respite from work, school, and too many obligations, has already passed? Rest assured, you are not alone. If nothing else, just know that this girl feels your pain! I was telling my husband this morning that the weekend needs to be longer for all the stress I have during the rest of the week.
As I was pondering the 'dilemma' of Monday, it came to me that, as much as we dread it, it is a gift from God. He tells us in Psalm 118 that this is the day which the Lord hath made. This means that every dreaded Monday is a day made by the Lord, just like the beloved Saturday or Sunday.
Just think, Monday is a day full of opportunity from a loving God:
Another day to live and breath and enjoy God's creation Hug your kids Kiss your husband Call your mom to say 'I love you!' Take a walk (well, if it's not raining!) Read your Bible Smile at a stranger Call a friend to encourage her Visit a sick friend or elderly person Be a good Samaritan Share the gospel! And who knows what else!
A day is only as good as your attitude! When you think of this day as being made by the Lord, what else can you do but rejoice in it!
Enjoy your Monday! Julia
