FReeper Canteen ~ Sunday Chapel ~ ON A GOOD DAY ~ 07 July 2013
Serving The Best Troops and Veterans In The World !! | The Canteen Crew

ON A GOOD DAY


Our worth is tested every day. We are given the choice of being nice to people or uncharitable. We are given the choice of doing our work as well as we can or of goofing off. Some days it seems the tests are harder than on others, but every day brings with it some kind of test. Even the really good days!

To have everything go wonderfully for us, to feel like a million dollars, to have one of those days when nothing and nobody can upset us, they are days when we might think we don't need God. And so we pay Him little attention. MISTAKE! BIG MISTAKE! We must never forget our good days are God's gifts to give us a breather, a taste of heaven.

"Make no mistake about this," writes St. James, "Every genuine benefit comes from above, descending from the Father of the heavenly luminaries." Good days are made in heaven. Be sure to thank God for them.

CDR Gary Simons, CHC, USN

Gotta save that one. My soon-to-be Marine son is in for a shock and refuses to start getting used to getting up early now.

Thank you. I didn't expect a reply. My son and I saw Man of Steel yesterday, and then went to Baskin Robbins. I see things differently now that he is joining the Marines. I have to brace for the possibility that he won't come out of things in one piece or at all. Although, it looks like he will be training for a less lethal occupation than front-line.
