Today Is Your Best Day Because You Are In Christ

God alone made it possible for you to be in Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made Christ to be wisdom itself. He is the One Who made us acceptable to God. He made us pure and holy, and He gave Himself to purchase our freedom. I CORINTHIANS 1:30 NLT

Different people use different measurements to evaluate their day. A salesman may land a big account and call it his best day. An athlete may break a record in his sport and call it his best day. A woman may marry the man of her dreams and call it her best day. A writer may have her first book published and call it her best day.

As a child of God, however, today is your best day because you are in Christ. You may be a salesman who landed a big account today, or you may have made no sale at all. Your best day is not founded in what you’ve accomplished, but in who you are in Christ.

Being in Christ means that He is the atmosphere in which you live your day.

As a child of God, however, today is your best day because you are in Christ.
