Good morning!

These two words which usually we use as a greeting or farewell to people we meet between the hours of midnight and and 12 noon mean more than just that to me.You see,I have mixed feelings about this greeting,most times,it signals to me that it is a fresh new day,it often brings to mind the song ” the steadfast love of the Lord never ceaseth…they are new every morning”I try to be positive in all I do,(never mind those few times that I am down in the dump and I just don’t think things are going my way?)So morning mostly signals to me that it is a brand new day with new possibilities, new mercies,a fresh start and another chance to improve my life by ‘trying again’.

Yet,at other times,like days when I really did not think things went my way and I went to bed grumpy and down cast,then when I open my eyes to the light of another day,I just groan and wonder if I even have to get out of bed at all to do it all over again?Now,days like this are not alien to anybody,at least I do not think they are?but the difference now becomes what we choose to do with this day,sometimes,our lives do not go the way we planned them,nothing seems to fall in place at such times but we can then choose to steel our minds to all the failures of the past and just forge ahead by trying again!The only thing we owe ourselves is to try,and try again and again?

I am gradually learning about the great power my mind holds,I know that ultimate power belongs to God but I also know that my mind is a power house?When I wake up to a brand new day these days,I commit it into the hands of the one who made the day and I tell myself, “it is a fresh new day,a gift to start over and try again,this time,I will try to do better than I did yesterday”A good morning to you!
