This Is The Day  

The Bible says, “Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD: This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter. 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.” Psalms 118:19-24 (KJV)

Dr. F. W. Boreham tells about his stay in a quaint old cottage in England occupied by a minister’s widow. She had given him her bedroom and in the morning when he pulled up the blind, he saw that into the glass of the windowpane had been cut the words: “This is the day.”

He asked the elderly lady about it at breakfast. She explained that she had had a lot of trouble in her time and was always afraid of what was going to happen tomorrow. One day she read the words of the psalmist. It occurred to her that it meant any day, this day. “Why should I be afraid of the days if He makes them?” So, the widow scratched the words as well as she could in the windowpane, so that every time she drew her blind in the morning, she was reminded that “This is the day.” Realizing the Lord made it, she was no longer afraid.

Do you have such peace? With Jesus as your Lord and Savior, every day with Jesus is sweeter than the day before!
