Monday Blahs

Monday is always looked at as the start of the work/school week. It is the one day more people look forward to passing by then any other day. It makes a Sunday go by at the speed of light and seems to take on a lag of its own.



One of the things I learned recently is that every day is an important day. It's one more day God has included me in His plan, here on earth. It's one more day to say I am sorry and one more day to forgive. Its a start over point, a day to seek the joy in every moment. It is one more chance to take in the beauty God created and one more day to spread the word of God.


Monday has become a plague all its own. We allow a beginning day of the week to weigh us down and stop us from living in the moment. Some of us miss church, family events, a night out, because tomorrow is Monday. This is an excuse we use to pardon us from living today.



After spending a few days in the hospital with my daughter, and sharing our faith with others while we were there, I began to understand how important each moment is. Monday is like any other day. It's a gift to be a part of the bigger tapestry of life. Will you allow the popular concept of this day stop you or will you treat it as the chance we all have been given?



For me Monday has taken on a new role. Monday is not the beginning of drudgery. It is about stilling yourself and setting the tone for the rest of the week. Should God see fit to give me Tuesday or any other day of the week for that matter, than I will face it with the same glad heart.
