What will you do today? The answer to the question is the stuff of poems. I found at least seven different versions in a quick web search–and did not find the particular poem I was looking for.
What will I do today? Here is the answer I would like to give every day, along with a mixture of things I know are on my “to do” list for today.
Today I will begin with God. He will be among my first thoughts of the day–and among the last as I pillow my head.
Today will consider others and bring them before God’s throne.
Today I will listen to God–I will make an effort to find him, in the world about me and in his word.
Today I will fill the inboxes of those who share ministry and missions with me. I will write and encourage them, I will share information, not just to fix their inboxes, but to help us move ahead in the grand work of God.
Today I will spend some time thinking about the future–to check that God’s will is directing me.
Today I will do something God wants me to do that I would rather not do–just to prove that he is Lord.
Today I will improve on where I was yesterday, in at least some small way.
I challenge you to write your own list. What will you do today?
