[/caption]I have always enjoyed watching NBC's Today Show. I would watch it before going to school after I watched Inspector Gadget or, as I matured, The Three Stooges.
But I always anticipated the 7:00 am introduction to the Today Show as the host would summarize the major news story they were covering and seque into a dramatic ending of "... Today, [the date]." The impression: major things happen every day; every day is full of news, promise, and pain.
In fact, today is the only day we have -- to live for God, to love our families, to treat people right, to make things right, to seize opportunities, and in essence, to live.
Martin Luther used to say, "There are only two days on my calender -- this day and that day."
"This day" refers to today. "That day" is the day we stand before the Lord to give an account of how we used the "todays" He gave us.
This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24 [NIV]
