Turn right

This is the day the Lord has made. Whatever it holds, I'm praising him. We have plans for today, plans which may blossom and create a fragrant memory. Plans which may just work out and be forgotten once the sun sets. Plans which may go flat and even leave a stink.

Whatever the day holds, I am going to walk into it praising the Lord, embracing the good, letting anything else fall away.

Yesterday I took a road less travelled. I turned right instead of left, and discovered a post office, a gas station ... even a cinema ... within a couple of miles. How often I limit myself by sticking to the familiar, never considering going a different route.

Today I will look up, look out, and try a new way.
