Don't brashly announce what you're going to do tomorrow; you don't know the first thing about tomorrow.
Luke 9:23
Then he said to them all: “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.
It has become the norm in customer service for shop keepers to close a sale with the comment "Have a nice day" But wishing it won't make it happen. In the Twelve Steps we are taught to live 'One day at a Time' None of us can know what another day is going to bring us, but within the principles of faith, love and hope we have a strong foundation when surprises or crisis arise. Strong people of God experience a child-like trust in Him which no or mishap can destroy.
God consciousness at the beginning of each day will start us off well each day. Practicing the presence of God in everything that occurs in our day helps us to grow in our Spiritual walk and demonstrate that we are truly changed through His Saving Grace.
Next time someone suggests you "Have a nice day" try replying with "You have a God conscious one too!"
