Let us think about a phrase, That we've heard throughout our days Wishing us a Day of Favor, One which we would really savor. "Have a BLEST day!" so we've been told, By caring ones, us to uphold And the same, we may have said, (In godly paths,thy feet be led!) But it so occurs to me Might this fail in accuracy? I know it's meant to wish us the best, But in truth, aren't ALL days blessed? Even the days, we deem as bad, Be it tough or be it sad It's a day of life, you see, A blessing which the Lord gave me. Each day itself, a blessing is, More blessings can proceed from this But each day's blest right from the start, And mercies new, each day imparts. So should we not rather say-- "Make the Best of this Blest Day"? (For God has given it to thee, Use it for good, to His glory!) Thus each day's a day of Blessing, This I know, I am not guessing How I use this blessing free Will show how Blest this day can be! |

David; Wonderful insight and how right you are. Every day is a blest day, just being alive says it all! Beautiful wisdom put into poetic perfection! Ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

Boy David could I have used this a while ago. So simple in theory, it was a hard task to finally realize....But oh how much better this life is when we do!!! This is just a beautiful reminder and I shall use it as such, that's if you don't mind if I print it out.....Bonnie |

Thank You Bonnie, I appreciate you for asking. To all my friends here let me say, anything I post that you can make use of or feel others would benefit from-- I would be most happy for you to use it. I want to be a blessing- and an instrument of God to help encourage others. God bless you all, David |

David thank you for this poem. It so beautifully affirms the thought "great is your faithfulness, morning by morning new mercies I see." kethry. When dark of night takes your soul Think of me and be made whole. |

This is beautiful and how much better life would be if all peoples believed that each new day IS a gift from God, and what becomes of it depends on each individual. Linda |
