I just started reading this to myself (with the goal of living it) each day to focus on my most important priorities and not get caught up in the busy-ness of life. You can copy and edit it for your own daily mindset.
Just for today…
1. I will trust God; deepen and live out my faith.
2. I will choose to display a joyful and right attitude.
3. I will tangibly love and respect my wife.
4. I will care for my family and home.
5. I will learn, know and practice healthy living.
6. I will practice and develop positive thinking.
7. I will support my wife as she manages the home and schools our children.
8. I will determine and act upon important priorities.
9. I will initiate and invest in solid relationships.
10. I will plan for and model generosity.
11. I will embrace and practice good values established in God’s Word.
12. I will seek and experience improvement.
I will manage these decisions JUST FOR TODAY. Some day soon, I will see the compounding results of several days lived well!
Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness.
For His name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil; For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil’
My cup runs over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD
Forever.
Psalm 37:3-5
Trust the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.
Delight yourself also in the LORD, And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.
Many Blessings,
Kary

7 Comments and Pings on Just For Today
In studying the 10 Commandments, and looking at #3 of not putting the Lord’s name in vain, one of the challenges were to look for ways to honor God’s name. I like this active list that you’ve created. It gives me ideas how to focus my attention with my behavior to and for HIm in the morning. Thanks for this….and for Mike Feil who led me to this blog.

Hi Kary
Great content. I totally endorse the ‘inside out’ approach to life. I sense your sincerity. I admire your emphasis on living your life for the sake of others and I like your bullet point style in writing a blog: it’s easy to read and you can quickly get the gist of your message. Keep the inspiration flowing….
