“Have A Good Day!”
Categories: Church of Christ Bulletin Articles
The above titled expression has become a popular way of conveying one’s good wishes toward others. However, in a real sense, every day is a “good day” for the Christian.
May I suggest some reasons why:
- The Day Is A Gift From God! — “This is the day which the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it” (Psalm 118:24).
- He Is God For A Companion! — “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word; and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him” (John 14:23).
- God Will Provide For His Every Need! — “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you” (Matthew 6:33).
- He Has The Assurance Of God’s Comfort! — “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ….who comforts us in all our tribulations” (2 Corinthians 1:3-4).
- God’s Grace Is Sufficient For Every Trial! — “My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9).
- The Door To The Throne Of Grace Is Open! — “Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:16).
- He Can Rejoice In Christ! — “Rejoice in the Lord always….Again I will say rejoice” (Philippians 4:4).
- The Sorrow The Day Brings Will Surely Pass! — “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning” (Psalm 30:5).
- He Enjoys A Peace That Only Christ Can Give! — “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you” (John 14:27).
- It Affords Him The Opportunity To Grow Spiritually! — “But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory” (2 Corinthians 3:18).
Yes, for the Christian, every day is a good day, isn’t it?
