Rising from our bed each morning is never just a matter of facing a new day filled with its invitation to live a little longer, it is the awareness that life has granted us the opportunity to construct all that The Author of our life awards us to make our life worth living to die for. There are those who say that rising each morning, is another chance to live life, with gratitude for the opportunity to better the life we lived yesterday.
Yesterday's experiences ended when we drifted off into sleep, to dream of that which our life weaves into our sleeping thoughts of its plans for us, about to take shape when Dawn taps us on the shoulder to begin afresh.
“Be willing to be a beginner every single morning.” – Meister Eckhart
Life is an apprenticeship for every human person willing to accept the invitation of our life's Author to let Him raise us up into His life, where we may live life to the fullest, in fulfilment of everything that He has written into our life's story from beginning, to the last word; His word, alive inspiring all our choices, when we freely choose to do all that He asks of us.
Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut. I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name. ~ Apocalypse 3:8
New life, new beginnings places us in a position to develop all that yesterday's experiences taught us, to improve on the person rising to face another day filled with opportunities encouraging us to be mindful that our life's story has a final chapter.
Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him
~ Apocalypse 3:20
