What A Day That Will Be!

What A Day That Will Be is a very old hymn sung decades ago by our spiritual mothers and fathers and at times in our local assemblies. It refers to that great day when we shall see our Saviour face to face and how it would be  such a glorious day.   The hymn is an anticipation of what is to come spiritually  for those who held onto their blessed hope.  ...............What a glorious day that will be!

What about now?  What about the opportunities we have now for people to see the resemblance of Christ in us.  What about now?  What about you and I availing  to those persons who come along our pathway   who only  needed a friendly smile.  What about today, rather than that glorious day which is to come?  Today, you can forgive that person who offended you and that individual will be afforded the opportunity to understand why we as Christians are forgiven.  Each of us have an opportunity to make another person's day glorious. What a day that will be for him or her?  What a glorious day that will be for  us  to know  that we are  forgiven for  the hurt and pain that we have contributed towards or caused.

What a day that will be when spouses reconcile and restore their marriage.  What a glorious day that will be when neighbours and friends cleanse their hearts from jealousy, envy and backbiting and can seek forgiveness and peace among themselves.  Indeed that hymn, 'What A Day That Will Be' refers to that which is to be experienced when we see our Saviour and Lord face to face.  However I want you to focus on today, I want you to be that representative, that ambassador who  permits that hurting, lonely, sad, or distressed individual to see Christ face to face through you. Let him or her see His love, experience His forgiveness, understand grace, appreciate His kindness through you as Christ' ambassador.  What A Day That Will Be can be today for someone through you.... make someone's day glorious.
