1836) I love to read when I have the chance and, sometimes, I just have to make time to read. There is a line I’ve read from time to time and when I have seen it, I cringe inwardly. It is simply this: The Day Started Out as Normal.
Just the whisper of these six words can make my stomach drop because there have been some specific days that will always stand out in my mind as a day my life changed, forever. Not all of them have been bad events but these remind us of our mortality, frailty, wonder and fear.
Because life has a way of giving you significant life-changing events, it’s good to remember Psalm 90:12 which tell us to number our days or appreciate the fact that all sorts of days will unfold and to walk through them, we need God to lean on.
Yes, we may say, The Day Started Out as Normal but God’s got this. He will walk us through these days, always.
