Just For Today!

JUN. 27, 2025

Just for today.

"This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." Ps 118:24

When the going gets tough, and you're tempted to complain about your lot in life, stop and remind yourself that this day is a gift from God, one you will never have again. Think about the following words and they will help you: 

Just for today, I will experience and enjoy each hour to the fullest and not try to tackle my whole life's problems all at once.

Just for today, I will try to improve my mind by learning more than I know; I will read something that requires effort, thought, concentration, and commitment. 

Just for today, I will be agreeable. I will try to look my best, speak softly, and be courteous and considerate to others. 

Just for today, I won't find fault or try to change or improve anyone but myself. 

Just for today, I will have a plan and a goal. I might not follow it exactly, but I will have one, nonetheless. By doing that, I will save myself from two enemies-hurry and indecision. 

Just for today, I will develop my character. I will do a good turn and keep it a secret; if anyone finds out, it won't count. 

Just for today, I will do something I don't want to do. That way, I will train my spirit to overrule my flesh, and my will to overrule my emotions. 

Just for today, I won't be afraid to love or to risk; I will endeavor to enjoy all God's blessings and believe that every seed I sow in His kingdom will be multiplied back to me many times over. That's how I will live— just for today!

Just for today

This day is a gift from God.
