Appreciate life today.

I will start with a song I listened today from one of the best music icons of our time in African Nigerian music industry by the name Timaya with the song titled "appreciate life". In his words, he said that it's your right and duty to always appreciate life no matter where you are and what you are facing at the moment.

Yes it will not be out of context to join in his advocacy of appreciating life this morning. I have always given it a thought that it's the right way of life to always appreciate that which you were given without merit, and that special gift is life. Whether you are strong this morning or not, whether you are having a great time today or not, all you should be after right now is nothing but thanking that supreme being that created all the universe and everything that is in it.

Have you ever thought about why God who created life still allow you to enjoy your life despite all your wrong doings and bad behaviours?

Have you really asked yourself this particular question as to why God still give you that yet another chance to wake up from sleep each beautiful morning notwithstanding the way you disrespected and disobeyed God, treated your fellow human being unjustly and all your dealings that never brought joy and happiness to God and people around you?

We may never understand the level of grace, love and mercy we receive every blessed day we go out and come back from our day's activities, we do not know what happens behind our subconscious bodies lying down in deep sleep all through the night and yet we open our eyes when the day break all by the grace of him who created all things and was never created.

I am most grateful to God for giving me a life I didn't deserve, a life I never merited and a life I didn't know how it all came about, but you still went ahead to keep me alive in the land of the living. If I begin to check the difference between me that you gave life today and those that didn't make it alive this morning, I will understand that I am not better off than these people who didn't wake up this morning with me, but it was your grace that saved and kept me alive and going.

I know some people that find it so difficult to appreciate that gift of life that were given to them, anyways it's actually funny to see most people feel it's their right to stay alive and do as they like without having any fear or remorse of their actions and treatments towards their neighbours and people they meet each day of their lives. No one is entitled to what comes to him or her from God, and it's of essence that one knows how to appreciate that gift of life and be grateful to that supreme God that give life in abundance without receiving or asking anything from you.

Now do you know that when you appreciate that life God gave you with a clean heart, you are already attracting unmerited favours and blessings to yourself and to your household? No doubt, it's the truth and many have failed to understand it and make every effort to key into this great channel of blessing attraction from God.

That you woke up in the morning, dressed up for the day's activities, went out to achieve your goals and aims and after the day's activities you came back safely to your house, eat and sleep without any regrets is really more than enough reason to be happy and be appreciative to God.

That you were able to achieve your goals and all your heart desires as a person who hopes for success is more than enough reason to appreciate life.

That you were able to overcome your fears and challenges that come each passing day when you try to make ends meet is enough reason to be appreciative of the life you already have.

That you were able to see the bright day each passing day is more than enough reason to appreciate life today. Do not feel it's your right to take back the appreciation that is meant for God to yourself. Start now to always be in the mood and spirit to appreciate life anytime you wake up to see that you are among the living.
