Believe For A Good Day And Enjoy It

What we believe has a dramatic effect on our lives. Jesus said, “What you have believed will be done for you!” It is a principle of life that works for the good and for the bad. Worry and fear are belief that the worst is likely. We need to be optimists; we must exercise our thoughts each day to believe for good things. Our lives follow our thoughts, so we need to believe for the good. As we do that, we will receive faith, hope, and love. 

A physician looked at the psychological advantages of optimism over depression and concluded the following: “Depressive thoughts, habitually held, increase the possibility of infection by at least tenfold. Optimism, real faith, and enthusiasm, taken together, are powerful agents in burning out infection. I have noticed that people who maintain a confident attitude show greater healing power in the presence of sickness and disease. Enthusiasm is one of the greatest sources of health.”

The way we see something determines what we get out of it. If we see and believe for a great day, we will get a great day. Every day is filled with the possibility of greatness. 

How many times have you looked back and thought, “I should have enjoyed myself?” How often have you lived with regret for not enjoying a particular day? Today is the only moment we have. If we do not learn to enjoy it, we will not enjoy life. 

Grab hold of the good things each day brings. Enjoy the sunrise and all the wonderful colors of the sky. Enjoy trees, flowers, rivers, lakes, and mountains. See how God expresses Himself, His bigness, His beauty, His intricacy, His devotion to big and little things in creation. I love the lyric of “Cannons,” a song by Phil Wickham, that says, “The moon and the stars declare who you are.” 

When was the last time you enjoyed your family? Do not take them for granted. Enjoy your spouse, children, grandchildren, and parents. Enjoy your friends. Enjoy being with them and doing things with them. Enjoy the people that God brings into your life. Do your work every day with purpose and enthusiasm. To enjoy a good day, work at it. Do not be negative about anything or anyone. The more positive we are, the happier each day will be. Go and make today the best day of your life!
