Advent Devotional - Day 25: by Evelyn Nasworthy


READING: Psalm 118:24

“This is the day that the Lord has made.
We will rejoice and be glad in it.”
Psalm 118:24

I wake up every day and see something that amazes me………a sunrise while I am walking the dog, a beautiful red hibiscus blooming near the mail box, or children laughing at the local playground. Take a walk yourself and see for yourself. Our Lord has made it……..all of it. Praises should flow from your lips and dwell in your mind every day so that we sing those praises to others. Don’t keep them to yourself. It is your duty to proclaim God’s greatness. Be glad and share the love and happiness that is given for you……each day……..every day.

Let’s pray. Heavenly Father, our Lord, We rejoice with such enthusiasm of the wonderful things that we have seen you have made. It is all around us, Lord. We are glad. See us smiling? We are rejoicing and singing your goodness. Praise to you, dear Lord.
Amen.
