The First Day

"Today is the first day of the rest of your life" - heard that one before haven't you, but it really is a true statement. Whether you realize it or not the rest begins here, and you have more control over the future than you probably realize. Now, granted, there are many things that are beyond our control that may happen to us but the choice we have is how we handle these uncertainties.
Proverbs 12:25 says 'anxiety in a man's heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad'. The more positive outlook you have on today being the first day of the rest of your life the less anxiety you will have weighing you down. The opposite of anxiety is peace, and real lasting authentic peace comes only from God so spend a little time with these two passages - Philippians 4:4-8 and 1 Peter 5:7 and start today in a good way for the rest of your life.
