What Makes A Day Worthwhile
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The Lord God is my strength, and he will make my feet like hinds' feet, and he will make me to walk upon mine high places.
Habakuk 4:18-19
The Lord is my strength and song, and is become my salvation. The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly. The right hand of the Lord is exalted: the right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly. I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord. The Lord hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death. 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 118:14-24

Today’s Thoughts and Insights
Any day that is a God day; is a good day!
When a day starts with it’s focus on God and when we seek Him in the morning; at the mid-day, in the early evening and even into the night – then that day has the potential to yield optimum success.
Today is an extra day in the year that we only get every four years.
What a great opportunity to take this extra day and make it extra special for the glory of the Lord. You will not have another February 29th again until the year 2016: So already today is special. But if God is the focus and this day is all about Him and all for Him it will be even more special.
Every day needs to be a God day in the life of a Christian. This year we just have the joy and privilege of having one extra day to serve Him and to bless others, thus blessing Him.
The question in today’s title asked what makes a day special?
There are many things that can make a day special; but most assuredly no one can make any day more special than God.
And isn’t every day that we can honor, serve and please Him a day to be counted as special?
So, just how special do you plan to make this day for you and for God?
Today’s Prayer
Father you are my all; my every thing; my hopes, my desire and my delight. Thank you for another special day. May my day be a special day for you and may what I say and do today make you smile and make you proud to call me your child.
“A friendly look, a kindly smile, one good act, and life’s worthwhile.”
