Every day is a new beginning 

Every day is a new start.
Every day is a new beginning.
Every day is a new chance
to forget about yesterday,
put the past behind
and live in the present
while focusing on or looking ahead to the future.

The future is always changing, because the future is all the time becoming a part of the present. The future is good. The future is challenging. The future is exciting and interesting, because we never know what will come or happen next. We can never know for sure. Only God can. He knows the future, and he is in control over the past, present and future. He is the one who every day gives a new morning, a new start and a brand new day - totally free and without demands of payment. Freely - in his good grace - He gives us a new start every single day of the week. Over and over again we have the free gift of a new day and a new start, a new chance of a new beginning - of our whole life or just a little part of our life. Every day is a new beginning and a chance to experience something new and enjoy life to it's full!

"I can never get away from my God... How precious it is, Lord, to realize that you are thinking about me constantly! I can't even count how many times a day your thoughts turn toward me. And when I waken in the morning, you are still thinking of me!" - Psalm 139, v. 7b and v. 17-18 (Life Application Bible For Students)

If you read this in the evening, and you are not pleased with the day you've just lived through, please remember that tomorrow is a new beginning and a new start, a fresh day with lots of new chances! And if you read this blog text in the morning, you can be thankful that God has given you a brand new day with lots of new possibilities and opportunities to enjoy life and do something meaningful - something that will please both your self and others. When we serve others, we will be blessed our selves.

"A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed." - Proverbs 11, 25 (Holy Bible, NIV)

I hope you all will have many nice mornings and new beginnings and good days this coming week! God bless all of you!
