Maximize This Day

God determines the number of your days, but you determine how they are spent. The Psalmist said, "This is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it." Yesterday is a canceled check, tomorrow is a promissory note. Today is all you've got.

And you can begin your life over today if you live by these words: "Today I will delete from my diary two days—yesterday and tomorrow. Yesterday was for leaving, tomorrow will be a consequence of what I do today. Today I will face life with the conviction that this day will never return, that it may be the last opportunity I'll have to contribute, because there's no guarantee I'll see tomorrow. Today I will be courageous enough not to let opportunity pass me by; my only alternative will be to succeed.

"Today I will invest my most valuable resource, my time, into my most important possession, the life God has given me. I'll spend each minute purposefully, making today a unique opportunity. I'll tackle each obstacle knowing that with God's help I can overcome it. Today I will resist doubt and pessimism, and warm my with a smile. I'll maintain a strong faith, expect nothing but the best, take time to be happy, see every task as an opportunity to honor the Lord, and endeavor to leave His footprints on the hearts of those I meet."
