The Power of a Day

Proverbs 27:1 Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.

I once heard a man bragging about his religion, saying that God has never promised anyone their next breathe. I am in agreement to that belief. However, I prefer a more sanguen approach to viewing a day. I like to ask myself and others this question: How can you best assure that you will be serving God in His will 10, 20, and maybe even 50 years from today? (Barring the Jesus' rapture of His church)

Would it not be great to know with a certain amount of confidence that you could be doing that very thing. Just think in a era where many Christians are falling out of God's will every day, and you are heading in a direction of "well done thou good and faithful servant". Can that be true?

Yes it can. But how you ask? Just remember this simple answer: Be in the will of God TODAY! That is the great power of today, it always leads into the next today. If I live for God today, today will turn into next week, next month, next year, and next decade. Tomorrow may never come, but there is always today.
