This day has begun quite typically for me - now. Not so a year ago when I had to be at work a 7:30 A.M. and got off at 6:00 P.M. I especially remember disliking the return to standard time after having an extra hour of daylight. Of course, by this time of year, it never really mattered because it was dark when I got off work regardless. Now I wake up when I wake up and start my day in a leisurely, self-paced manner. I love starting each day as my best day in Prosperity.
The word prosperity has several meanings for me. The first and most obvious meaning is my physical address. Prosperity, South Carolina, is actually a fairly small town in the center of the state. Legend says the original name of this settlement was "Frog Level." Who knows? We are blessed to have a large lake here, Lake Murray, with close to 600 miles of shoreline. I have played on and around this lake for as long as I can remember. It's a blessing to be able to share it with friends, family, and our pets. As you can imagine, our golden retriever Emma especially loves living here. She loves it even more now that I am here during the day to enjoy it with her.
Another meaning the word prosperity has for me is the state of mind I choose to have each day. Knowing that I have more than I need for my physical well-being causes me to me to be filled with gratitude. I start my day looking at all the abundance in my life and world and give thanks to God for blessing me in more ways than I can imagine. Since my life is really right now, I focus on the reality of right now. Right now is very good indeed.
Of course a lot of people consider prosperity to mean their financial well-being. I am so grateful for the financial prosperity I have been and am being blessed with. We live in the greatest country on earth. Our opportunities to achieve whatever degree of prosperity we choose are abundant. So as I embark on My Best Day in Prosperity, I do so with a heart full of gratitude and the desire to share this day and its possibilities with as many people as God puts in my path.
To Your Best Day in Prosperity,
