It’s Monday.

Again.

How has your Monday been so far? Too many fires to put out? Enough distractions to fill the Palo Duro Canyon? To do list becoming a too long list? Or even worse, did you have STAAR testing ?

Of course, it is easy to blame the outside forces of evil that conspire to make our Mondays difficult, exhausting, and downright ugh-ly.

But let’s be honest. The problem is mostly us. It is our response, our frustration level, our reactions that do us in. Be angry, but do not sin? Yeah, right.

We make a mess out of Mondays, as well as the other days that end with the letter y.

Ready for some good news? How about The Good News? That is what the word gospel means–good news. And the gospel is the greatest news for sure.

Check out the following gospel quotes from one of our favorite authors, Paul Tripp:

“Be thankful that because of the work of Jesus, he will respond to you with lovingkindness even on your worst day.”

“On your very worst, most rebellious, and most faithless day, you can run into the holy presence of your heavenly Father and he will not turn you away. Your acceptance has not been, nor will it ever be, based on your performance.”

That is good medicine on Monday and any other day of trouble.

And while you are checking out those quotes, why not check out the book that these quotes came from? They came straight from Paul Tripp’s new devotional called, New Morning Mercies: A Daily Gospel Devotional. 

At Base Camp we teach you to never move past the gospel. We challenge you to be a student of the gospel. This resource will help you go deeper in your understanding of the gospel. It is a great way to start your day with gospel reminders, and a great way to keep the gospel central as you battle the enemy and his Monday Minions.
