Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.  Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs.  Psalm 100:1, 2 NIV

What a great way to start a new day or a new week. Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth. That is a decision that has great rewards for us as we start a new day! Our life has so much noise, distractions, stress, worry, broken relationships and at times even anxiety. It is good to take a deep breath each morning concerning the joy that is ours because of the life of grace in Jesus the Christ.  Think of the emotions in the words such as "shout for joy; worship the LORD with gladness, joyful songs."  Something happens to us all when we do this! When shouting for joy, worshipping with gladness and singing joyful songs describes our attitude for the day, that day will be blessed. Today, may we enjoy the grace of our Lord, we will find ourselves filled with gladness in our thinking and emotions. May our expressions be refreshed as we Worship the LORD with gladness. We will find that our attitude will be contagious. This day could be just down right outstanding.! Enjoy!
