"This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24.
I named this blog ... I will Rejoice... because I need it as a constant reminder for me. In fact, I have these words written above my cabinets in my kitchen so that I remember them daily. I have a tendency to get bogged down by the daily pressures of caring for a household with three young children in it and these words bring healing to my days. They remind me to rejoice in the wonderful gifts I have been given: a home - though I am a woefully inadequate housekeeper, three beautiful children - even when I am failing to see their beauty, a loving husband - even when I'm taking the day's stresses out on him. The words remind me that God has a plan for today, it may not be the same plan that I have, but still I will rejoice. I will rejoice in my forgiveness and my salvation. I will rejoice when we have good days and I will rejoice when they are not so good.
My messy kitchen (just keeping it real) with the words my sister made for me.
someday i'll take a picture of my messy kitchen so you can see what a real mess is. though actually i'm pretty sure you can picture it! glad you put a pic of the words up, i was going to ask you for one.
ReplyDeleteI might have to hire your sister! My little Cricut won't make those big letters. You're doing a great job on the blog!
