Devotion:
Read Psalm 118:24.
“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” What a beautiful way to begin each day! There are days when the last thing we want to do is rejoice. Our circumstance is difficult, our feelings are hurt, our mood is down, and our sorrow is great. The writer of this Psalm understands and writes of fear, distress, and hostility he is experiencing. But the writer pours out his heart to the Lord and recognizes the strength of God and the glorious things he has done. When you don’t feel like rejoicing, tell God how you truly feel. God will remind you of reasons to rejoice. Then do as the Psalmist does in the last verse of this Psalm, “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good! His faithful love endures forever.”
