I shall give thanks to You, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation. The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief corner stone. This is YHWH's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes." (Psa 118:21-23)Thus, "the day" to which he refers is specifically when Christ came, died, rose again, and conquered all. That's the day YHWH made. That's the day we rejoice and be glad for. But ... that's now. He reigns now. So this is that "day" in an ongoing sense, and we can and should rejoice and be glad in the stone that became the chief corner stone.
The truth is, today is the day the Lord has made. How is yours? I mean, are you satisfied with it -- are you rejoicing in it -- or do you have some suggestions for improvement? The truth is, we are living in the era spoken of when Christ became the corner stone. Are you glad? Are you rejoicing in it? We should really give thanks, because He is good, and His lovingkindness is everlasting. Perhaps that can make your day better.

My only suggestion for improvement would be for me to be less of a sinner. But that's on me.
“How’s Your Day?” I might reply, “too early to tell” or “ask me again after I have my coffee.” Our dreary weather might elicit a “meh” in some people. My health (and mood) today would prompt an “I can’t complain.” It will soon be Tax Day--when money formerly “yours” becomes “THE IRS”. But for the wonderful reason you highlight in this post, my day is blessed, and I will rejoice and be glad in it, indeed. Have a good and godly day!
