We all have the same 1440 minutes!

This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. –Psalm 118:24

Why do I find it easier to see things to complain about?  As I try – to take thoughts captive, I need to remind myself I have limited time.

Today you were handed from God 24 hours to live life to the fullest. That’s 1,440 minutes or 86,400 seconds.

Sometimes we get so busy and distracted, we miss the fact that each rising sun brings new opportunities and adventures.

God gives us one new day at a time so that we aren’t distracted by the future or paralyzed by the past. Today really is the first day of the rest of your life. Make the most of it!  Enjoy God’s gift to you. You can accomplish a great deal with the 1,440 minutes in a day. Today, stop and notice all that God has provided for you.

Here are a few suggestions:

Tell someone you love him/her.

Write a kind note to a friend.

Stop and enjoy the sunrise.

Take 10 minutes of the 1,440 you have today and talk to God.

Memorize this verse: “This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it” Psalm 118:24.
Blessings,

Thora

  1. Isn’t it funny how it’s so much easier to complain? It’s a strange thing especially when being glad and rejoicing feels so much better!
