  Today, Lord, I choose to believe in you     - not to try to go it alone -             but to believe in your loving care for me... Today, Lord, I choose to trust in you    - not to stress out in fear and panic -            but to trust that you're always right by my side... Today, Lord, I choose to live by your Word    - not by my whims and fancies -            but by the wisdom and truth of your Word... Today, Lord, I choose to do what is right    - not to shortcut my way on the easy path -            but to do what I know to be just and fair...Today, Lord, I choose to smile and to laugh     - not to pout in self-pity or weep in despair -         but to seek out what joy this new day will bring...  Today, Lord, I choose to tell the truth    - not to lie and cheat my way out -            but to speak the truth in in word and deed...Today, Lord, I choose to reach out to others    - putting others' needs ahead of my own -            learning to love as I want to be loved... Today, Lord, I choose to look for the good    - in spite of my bent to see all that's wrong -             and to find in what's good the touch of your hand... Today, Lord, I choose to walk your path     - following your map and not my own -            'til I find you before me, behind me, beside me..  Today, Lord, I choose to live as I'm called    - not for my own gain but only for you -        and all for your glory, honor and praise...Today, Lord, I choose what will help me to grow    in your truth, in your grace,         in your peace and your joy... Today, Lord - I choose you!Amen. Today I Choose You by Tony ElenburgIf a widget doesn't appear below, click here!  Yesterday is gone forever, And tomorrow's still a day away; I can't change the things I've done, And You alone know beyond today What comes my way; But in the stillness of your presence, Lord, I'm reminded of Your grace; The Spirit breathes assurance That I have a choice today. And today I choose to abide in you, Today I choose to abide in you; Today may be a storm like I've never seen before But today I'll rest, Today I'll rest, Lord, today I'll rest in You. Tweet    SUBSCRIBE HERE!
