Bookends For Your Day Neh. 8:10 #Nightlight #RTTBROS Bookends for your day. Nehemiah 8:10 KJVS - 10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength I feel it my duty to be as happy as the Lord wants me to be–Robert Murray McCheyne It is imperative that we incorporate a sense of cheerfulness into our daily routines. To this end, I would like to offer two suggestions. Firstly, in the morning, sing a verse of a hymn as you begin your day. I enjoy gazing at the beauty of God's creation and giving voice to a verse or two of one of the great hymns of the faith. For example "I come to the garden alone While the dew is still on the roses And the voice I hear, falling on my ear The Son of God discloses And He walks with me And He talks with me And He tells me I am His own And the joy we share as we tarry there None other has ever known He speaks and the sound of His voice Is so sweet the birds hush their singing And the melody that He gave to me Within my heart is ringing" Secondly, before going to sleep at night, as a new nightly routine, think of three things that you are thankful for. Instead of allowing your mind to dwell on the stresses of the day, take some time to thank God for three good things. This could be for helping you not lose your temper, or a good deal you found shopping that day. By starting the morning with a song and ending it with a prayer of thanksgiving, we can establish a routine that will positively impact those around us, making us the kind of people who spread joy wherever we go.
