A woman witnessed her father practicing this. She noticed that each morning after he went outside to get the newspaper, he stood for a few minutes quietly looking up at the sky and reflecting. When she asked him what he was thinking, he said that he starts his mornings by appreciating God's beautiful creation and thinking, This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it.
The woman says now when she locks the door as she's leaving her house, she pauses for a moment to thank God for her home, family and then looks up at the beautiful sky and thanks Him for a wonderful day. She says it puts her in the right frame of mind to start each day.
What a beautiful way to remember how fortunate we are and to start our day with God.
