The Right Stuff

Sometimes, I waste too much time. I have funky days when I’m tired or moody or downright depressed, and I end up being no good to anyone. I'm missing all the right stuff.

Besides doing my best to make the next day better, I found something out recently that helped me forgive myself for those off days.

Here’s what I learned…

Doing right lasts longer than a day.

Yes, one bad day can ruin a reputation.

But a reputation built up over time, tested and true, can influence in ways you can’t even know about, even on the bad days.

You never know who’s watching and listening… your marriage, your work ethic, your language, your manners… or when your example makes a difference in someone else’s life.

Here’s the key – seek first God’s kingdom.

I don’t do right because people might be watching.

I do right because I love God and because He first loved me.

All glory to God if that causes another soul to turn into His embrace.

And if I have a bad day, then I depend on God’s grace and marvel at how He continues to shine through. After all, His righteousness is all that counts in the end. (Isa. 64:6)

Today, I covet your prayers as I attempt to “nest” in 850 Sq. Ft. J It’s temporary, but a challenge nonetheless.
