Rejoice!

I DID NOT want to get up this morning! I had maybe six hours of bad sleep last night, and have a ton of homework to finish before my class at 2. Driving to work I had the Christian station on and both the songs were really upbeat and just put a smile on my face. It made me think of the song we used to sing in my church at home "this is the day, this is the day that the lord has made, that the lord has made. I will rejoice, I will rejoice and be glad in it, and be glad in it." I have so much to get up for, I have so much to look forward to today. I wake up and think of all the bad stuff I have to do that day and forget that this is the day the lord has made. He has a plan for today, and I look forward to spending it with him. Sometimes the world can get you down but again remember Psalms 118:24 "This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." I am excited to be up because the things I have to get done for this world are such a small thing, I believe God has a bigger plan for today that involves his kingdom and that is something to jump out of bed for!
