This is the DAY - this is the DAY - this is the DAY that the Lord hath made...Isn't it quite something that "a" DAY was actually MADE? I mean there was a moment when there was not a DAY - and then suddenly God MADE a day! Wow.
To-DAY, I am compelled to write from a grateful heart. To return to the One Who reached out and touched me and thank Him ~ for He cleansed this leper's heart and made me whole on a DAY. It was all His doing ~ He sought me ~ He wooed me ~ He ordered the steps of my every DAY and brought me to A DAY and on that DAY opened my eyes to Who He is. Jesus said, "I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No man cometh unto the Father but by me..." (John 14:6) Was He lying? Is He a Lunatic? Or is He the Lord?
His Spirit pressed upon me and I was forced to address the evidence before me on that DAY. Oh, how thankful I am that He continued in His pursuit of my soul. I had never heard that Jesus was God. God. The Creator of DAYS ~ and of all that is in those DAYS. Jesus. Oh, Jesus. Thank you for pursuing me. Thank you for bringing me before You and opening my eyes to the price You paid on Calvary one DAY for me. My sin.
One DAY You became my sin. And then that DAY You shed your blood for my sin. The same DAY you cried out "It is finished!" and released your spirit for my sin. And then you were in the grave three DAYS because of my sin. AND then on a DAY You conquered the grave and came back alive because You are greater than sin, and death, and the grave!
You did all this for me before the DAY I was born. In fact, You did this for me approximately 1,955 years, about 713,575 DAYS ~ before I breathed my first breath. And then you ordered my steps another 22 years ~ 8,030 days ~ until I was in that particular place, at that particular time, on that particular DAY. Through the foolishness of preaching and the witness and testimony of another for whom you died, your Spirit convinced me. I knew I was a sinner. I was convinced You were Who You claimed to be and that You did what You did because You said so. I repented, I changed my mind, I believed You and received you as my Savior! Now all my DAYS You live in me. I breathe in You. Because You live every DAY ~ I live every DAY. FOREVER.
Have you received Jesus as your Savior?
It is YOUR DAY to choose to believe...
I love you, Jesus. Thank you for saving my soul.
This is the DAY. this is the DAY, this is the DAY that the Lord hath made...I will rejoice, I will rejoice, I will rejoice and be glad in it...
I hope you will, too.
Because of Him,
Patti
