A Very Good Day

Sometimes at the end of the day I will reflect on all the activities that took place throughout the day. Usually I evaluate if the day was productive or not; so many factors seem to add up for the daily score and judgement. Good day or bad day?

When did life get so complicated? Why do I make it so complicated?

Yesterday I was blessed to spend a few hours with my granddaughters while their parents had a date night. We didn’t do anything monumental or out of the ordinary, but at the end of the evening both girls made the comment, “Thank you Grandma, this was a good day!”

It reminded me that every day can be a good day if I choose to see the good in it. No matter how long, stressful or crazy the day may have been there is always something good that took place.

First, I’m alive and blessed with another day. Next I’m provided with opportunities throughout the day to see His beauty and splendor. And each day I have the gift of His presence in my life. Just being near Him makes each day better.

Thank you Lord for the reminder from two very special little girls that every day can be a very good day.
