Hooray! It's today again. {Plus giveaway winners!}

Source

Wouldn't it be nice to wake up with that mentality everyday? I know it's hard. (Especially on a Monday...I know!)

But remember that happiness is a choice. And joy transcends fleeting emotions. 
For those of us who know Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we have constant joy in the victory of Jesus and the security of our salvation.

So I challenge you this morning:
Celebrate today...just because it's today. Another day to live.
Love hard.
Embrace the joy of this new morning.



And speaking of celebrating the day, I am excited to celebrate the winners of last week's giveaways!

The winner of the $25 to Flourish Boutique is:

(Jenny G.)

For the rest of us: there is still time to use the exclusive Cheers Y'all discount codes if you want to place an order! Information can be found on the original posts (see links above).

Hooray! It's today again. Choose joy.

  3. This post made my heart happy!! I'm on day 6 of the flu and know that apart from Christ I'd be a grumbling mess at the moment! Praise God that when our hope is founded in Him He blesses us with peace and joy that has nothing to do with temporal circumstances (Mondays, sickness, hardships, ect.) and everything to do with the fact that we have redemption through His blood and the promise of eternity with Him! ... Every day is an undeserved gift and I so appreciate your sharing that reminder this morning! ... CONGRATS to the winners of your fab giveaways! Have a lovely start to your week!! *Hugs*

  4. What a good reminder and especially on Monday! Some days I have to prep myself the night before to have a good attitude for the following day.

  5. This is such a lovely post. There was a time where I made a point of it to sing the "Thank You" song by 33 miles and it really helped get me in the mood for the day no matter what I had going on. I think I need to start that again, thanks for the inspiration!

  7. This is so weird...the theme for the womens conference I attended this past weekend was "joyful journey". It amazes me how God constantly reminds me what he is trying to get through to me. Thanks for sharing, love!

  8. I have always loved that verse - and have always found it so true. Joy does come in the morning, and we should all be thankful for every new day that we get to wake up and be blessed with another day of this life. Even if it is Monday:)
