This is the beginning of a new day.
God has given me this day to use as I will.
I can waste it–or use it for good, but what I do today is important,
because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.
When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, leaving in its place something I have traded for it.
I want it to be a gain, and not a loss, and not evil;
success, and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price I have paid for it.
