resetYesterday I was looking for a reset button so I could start this week over.  I’m sure everyone has a week here and there that seems to have one thing after another that just keeps dragging you down.  This has been one of those weeks for me.  Knowing what has happened this week so far, if I could start it over, there’s a lot I would change about my attitudes, reactions, and even a few little things I did or didn’t do that really don’t matter much in the grand scheme of things.  If only it were as simple as the Staples “easy button.”

God has a better reset button though.  It’s different for each person because He has designed us each differently.  For me, He gives me a new day.  I almost just listed all the things today that could make it a bad day for me (I decided to delete that long list).  Even though I may have more than enough excuses to have a bad day, my God wants the best for me.  He did not design today for me to sulk around and be upset.  He designed it for me to breathe life, follow His guide, and have a better attitude, making it a better day.

If your week sucks, ask God to show you the reset button He has for you.  It might not be easy.  Sometimes you even have to lose something you are working on, but sometimes it takes a fresh start to actually get moving.
