#197 Tuesday, Oct. 29/13, 9:45am, St Theresa’s before the Blessed Sacrament.
(Just read from 1 Esdras 9:53 “this day is holy, do not be sad.”)
Do you see Margo the wondrous wealth of encouragement I have for My People?
It dawned on you that each day is holy, so you should not be sad.
It is holy because it was Created by your one and only God. It is special because He said so. “And it was good.”
He is pleased with His Creation and thus wants to gift you with it and wants not only to gift you with this new day but to gift you to realize how holy it is – each and every day.
So each morning when you awaken do not hesitate to thank Me for this new day in your life, but thank Me more so because it is a new holy day.
It is a new day that I have Created and thus it has to be holy.
I eagerly want you to realize this. Not only do I create each day, but by Me being the Creator of each new day it has to be holy. And thus you can live in each new day as a holy day.
I am not sure if you had thought of it that way before. Yet when you read the passage this morning, it jumped right off the page into your heart/soul.
Remain obedient to reading the Bible daily. Now it is no sin on your part if you don’t, but the richness within My Words, My Inspired Words is worth the effort.
Some day you will read and nothing jumps out at you.
Remember I have allowed it to be so, so don’t go anxiously searching for a message. Yet today you just opened the Bible randomly and voila, there was My Message for you for this moment in time.
How often we go about with a ‘sad’ countenance. Sad being more despondent, or hopeless or wandering without a strong rudder.
Sure there is sadness in times of loss but that is quite different.
I do not want you feeling ‘sad’ otherwise, because it is an indication that you do not Trust in Me.
Do you see the difference? I so want you to see the difference.
I want to clarify for your eager heart, or even for a searching heart, My True Intent for each of your days here on earth.
Recognize that this day, each day, is Holy. Rejoice that you can grasp this bit of Treasure and let it invade your heart/soul.
You will no longer look on each day as just another day.
You will no longer look on each day as just a new day.
You will rejoice at the sight of each new day because it is Holy!
You are living in the Holiness of My Creation. How else can I tell you?
I so ache for you to see the wonder of this new realization.
Another day.
Another new day.
Another new day that is Holy!
You will trust the air you breathe as Holy, the water you drink as Holy, the sun, moon and stars as Holy. The grass beneath your feet as Holy.
Because they have been Created this day in your very presence by the One who is the Holy of Holies.
How can anything I have Created not be Holy?
Do not question “well what about diseases?”
You see how the devil will knock you off the track by throwing in such thoughts that will take you away from this Holy Day into you trying to figure out the answer.
And all the while you miss the Holy Day and the Holy One who Created it.
Do not be distracted by one who is not holy.
Be attracted first and foremost to the One and Only Who is Holy.
We seem to delight in trying to figure out this world on our own.
We sometimes fail to realize that that is not what you were Created for.
First and foremost, above all else, salute the Creator of each new, holy day.
Credit Him with ALL.
Allow no negativity to enter.
Rejoice that He has revealed to you how Holy each new day is.
He did not Create you in each new day in chaos and out of chaos.
So when you wander into jealousy, pride, anger, hatred remember He did not Create this in His new holy day. You did.
Thus we can easily turn each new holy day into a bunch of nothingness by our attitude and behaviour.
A day can only lose its holiness if we bring unholiness into it.
So treasure each new holy day.
Protect it against the wickedness and snares of the devil which we have the choice of inviting into the day or not.
You see, the devil can do no harm to this Holy day, unless we invite him to.
So God gifts you each day with a new, holy day. How will you treat this precious gift?
Can you imagine the great gift God has put into each of our hands?
Can you imagine the daring it takes for Him to take a chance on us?
Can you imagine how He wants us to make the most of this precious gift?
No we can’t, but still He persists in giving us every opportunity to get it right -- to live as He has called us to live.
Talk about a Generous God!
He has never failed us. He never will fail us.
No matter what ‘storms’ may enter our lives, we can still hold firm to the fact that God is with us in each new, holy day He has Created.
We may suffer, but we suffer with Him with us, and we suffer in the midst of a new, holy day.
Rejoice this day, every day is holy. Now go and live in the knowledge of the holiness of this day. Repeat to yourself:
“This is a holy day. This day is holy.”
