Just Another Morning?

Psalms 3:5
I laid me down and slept;
I awaked; for the Lord sustained me.

Awake for another day right? "It's just another day and another dollar" some would say, but it's really not. God, who is rich in mercy me grace, has given you this day. Yes just like David we laid down last night and just like David we have awakened this morning, but believe me it's not just another day. This is the day that the Lord has made right? Sure it is! But it is also a day that the Lord has given.

During the Psalm, David was fleeing from his son Absolom. It is during one of David's darkest times. His son is pursuing him for his life and David says that everyone is against him. In the middle of his darkness he makes this statement in song. He says that he laid down and slept. In the weakness of running from his son, David needs some rest. He closes his eyes with the possible idea that he may never open them again. But God was gracious unto David and gave him another day.

Maybe you have woke up this morning with the same trials and perils as David did in his day. If so, try and not see it as just another day. Try and see it as a day that God has made, but also has given you to accomplish or change the situation that you are in.

What if today is the breakthrough day? Either way, it's a day. Not ordinary, but extraordinary. Not just another day, but rather one more day.
