This is the day the Lord has made.......

Every Wednesday at the day school we go to chapel. Being first thing in the morning its always a feat to have a group of wiggly 3 and 4 years old sit still for any extend period (exsp first thing in the morning;Ha!) So that being said chapel consist of two or three songs and a quick bible stories which includes puppets. The one thing we do every week to start chapel off is have us all stand up and raise our hands up to the sky and we all say together "This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it" then we all clap our hands and cheer. I love this! What a way to start the day. I love the cheer. Isn't that how we should all start everyday off? Praising our Lord and in such child-like excitement of the day He has given us? There something so precious and sweet about the fact of getting up and thanking Him for the new day He has made.

So I've found that after doing this on a weekly basis for the past two years that I now find myself saying the whole verse to myself (and yes,with the sounds of cheering and clapping in my head is included,ha! Such a preschool teacher!) in the mornings as I get ready for my day. I never realized what a blessing this simple saying has been to me and how it has help change my perspective in the morning! Who knew that I'd be the one to learn something from the day school chapel?!? Don't ever underestimate the Word and how it can touch you in the most unique ways!
