Thank God It's Friday?

“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” –James 1:17

I just heard one of the students at the college where my husband works walk by and say, “Thank God it’s Friday”, and it got me to thinking. We hear people say Thank God that it is Friday or that the weekend is here, but how often do we hear, “Thank God it’s Monday”?
God gave us 6 days of the week to work, play, and enjoy, then the 7th to love and serve HIM. How sad is it that we sometimes do not stop to thank Him for our gift of a new day. It is a common mistake and we often overlook it, but each DAY is from him. “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” –James 1:17

Thank you God for this day. Although it is Friday and the beginning of the weekend, Lord we praise you for no matter what day it is, you made it and gave it to us! In your glorious name – Amen.


As a side note – my husband and I are taking our little girl on a small weekend trip and desire your prayers for a safe trip.

God Bless You,
Mary
