The Perfect Day on the Beach
Psalms 89:15-16
How happy are the people who know
the sound of joy! They walk in the light of Your face, O Lord. They are full of
joy in Your name all day long. And by being right with You, they are honored.
New Life Version Bible
It is a perfect day on the
beach! The sky is a Carolina Blue
dotted with puffy white clouds.
The ocean is rolling with gentle waves and the water is a soothing
temperature that cuddles with the inner soul. The tranquil ocean breeze baths my lungs and I feel
invigorated. Even the shorebirds
know it is a perfect day as the Pelicans peacefully soar; the Seagulls gently laugh;
and the Skimmers gracefully glide the water for their catch. I even found a complete
sand dollar topping off the perfect day that God created.
I wonder what Jesus’ perfect day was.
Was it the day as a young boy he entered the temple claiming this is His Father’s
House. Even a better day may have
been when John the Baptist baptizes him.
Or is it the day He arose from the dead ascending to heaven to sit on the
right hand of God the Father. God
sent His only Son Jesus to offer us an everlasting life. Jesus is the Good Shepherd leading each
of us with joy and happiness. Just
like the perfect day on the beach, Jesus has promised a perfect walk with Him
if we choose to follow him.
Let us focus on the perfection in
our lives which following Jesus will bring us. It is through our own baptism
and the words “Christ is Risen” that we are promised an everlasting life filled
with perfection. Once in a great while we are privileged with a perfect day on
earth, so now ask your self “What
is your perfect day?”
O Perfect Father,
I thank you for the perfect days you give me, as they are glimpse of
your Holy Kingdom and fill me with joy.
Guide me through the days to come to be more perfect in your love and
understanding. I praise your name and
thank you for sending Jesus to give me the promise of everlasting life.
In your name we pray,
Amen.
Your commitment for today:
Identify your perfect day and praise God.
