New Every Morning: Devotions for Women (Hardback)

Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad: for great is your reward in heaven…
Matthew 5:12 KJV

The 100th Pslam reminds us that the entire earth should "Shout for joy to the Lord" (NIV). As God's children, we are blessed beyond measure, but sometimes, as busy mothers living in a demanding world, we are slow to count our gifts and even slower to give thanks to the Giver.

Our blessing include faith, life and family-for starters. And, the gifts we receive from God are multiplied when we share them. May we always give thanks to the Creator for His blessings, and may we always demonstrate our gratitude by sharing our gifts with others.

The 118th Psalm reminds us that, "This is the day which the lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it" (v. 24 NASB). May we celebrate this day and the One who created it.

Dear Lord, You have given me so many reasons to celebrate. Today, let me choose an attitude of cheerfulness. Let me share Your goodness with my family, my friends and my neighbors, this day and every day. Amen.
