Remember that song? It's catchy.
Here's how you know you had a good day...
1. There's a Burger King crown involved
2. You wake up and hear the ocean (and you're not marooned - that would blow it)
3. You decide to see a better slant than the one that was ticking you off and you get through
4. You can share strength with a friend because you've been there
5. You're not "there" any more
6. You eat cheese and don't give a rip about how deep the fat valley created around your upper thigh by your bathing suit is
7. You laugh at yourself...repeatedly and enjoy it
8. You lay on the kitchen floor and sing (alone or with your kids...who am I to judge)
9. You can think of at least 10 amazing memories you've had with people you love
10. You know that, come-what-may, Jesus never fails. NEVER. That's really something if you possess that. It's easy to spout that when you're a Christian, but when it exists when all else is dry, that's real. When your world shakes but, surprisingly even, that truth does not, it's inspiring. It's like a brick wall for your mind and soul to lean on and rest. When you want to run away from everything except Jesus, you've had a good day. It's a perspective thing perhaps. But I know now that when I preach it I'm also living it. That's good news for me. I guess I had a good day! (Even though that cheese thing was about... my neighbor...)
