The sky was overcast with thick clouds early this morning I was driving to an appointment. I was listening to the Christian radio which I always find uplifting. The song, Beautiful Day by Jamie Grace was being introduced. She said that when she was having a bad day, she would tell her father that this was just not her day. Her father responded that of course it was not her day, that this is the day the Lord has made and we should rejoice and be glad in it – a quote from Psalm 118:24. I sang along as I knew many of the lyrics. The lines came, “There’s something ’bout the way, Your sun shines on my face, It’s a love so true I can never get enough of You!” As I was singing the words, the sun broke through the clouds for a moment and shone on my face. It filled me with joy. I think I will always remember that when I feel tempted to say, “It’s just not my day.”

I found God today in a well-timed bit of sunshine.
