Psalm 118:24

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

This is the day the LORD has made;

let us be glad and rejoice in it.

R. Alleluia, alleluia.

I love this Psalm! I try to say it each morning when I wake up! I say it to my spouse! My dad used to say it most days and lived happy and chipper! We need to count our blessings! We need to give thanks to God and be glad! Today we see so many very unhappy people. They are so negative, hateful, and live in so much misery. They allow things and people of this world to make them very unhappy and full of hate it seems. This just is not healthy at all. We need to rejoice in the Lord, we need to be glad. We need to live with happy hearts, rejoicing in the Lord. It is so important. God gave us Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us as our model of how to live, our example of what to do, to live with love. Today I see so many people so unhappy, they talk to me and want me to join their club of hate and negativity, but I always say, I will not be in a club of hate. Hate is a dangerous emotion, not healthy, and can cause illness, fear, and worry. I stay away from haters, negative people, and people who judge, are critical, and show signs of derangement syndromes or people living in misery. They need a healthy dose of this Psalm, we need to live with glad hearts, we need to rejoice, we need to count our blessings! We need to be prayerful, grateful, positive, loving, and joyful in the Lord always! Again I say, This is the day the LORD has made; let us be glad and rejoice in it! Alleluia/thanks to God!
