Meg, I just didn’t get time to play today....the days just rush by, goodness!

Spent part of the day yesterday with my son. It was his birthday and I took stromboli’s for he and I. Got him a Lowe’s gift certificate and some goodies such as Oreo’s and Hershey kisses, cracker and tidbits to munch on. His house is looking really good now. But he still has much to do!

Today I spent time on my paper work and you wouldn’t believe the junk mail I ripped in half and threw on the floor until I got it all done. Then I bagged it and rebagged it....LOL!

Your flowers and tables were just so beautiful today! I am sure you put a lot of time into them and I thank you for mine and all the others too.

This is a busy time of year. The weather was in low 70’s and beautiful today. Wishing you a nice evening and I will go back to my drudgery...LOL!

Tomorrow, and tomorrow and tomorrow
give enough time for things to change
and guide them with the gentlest hands.

G'Night Meg. I will be around a little more tomorrow. My daughter is getting ready to go back home. It has been a great weekend having her here. My beautiful little girl has grown up to be a beautiful woman and mother.

See you all tomorrow!

My darling daughter, I’m so sorry
We missed all the years we did
But in these few short days
We covered so much
So many lost days, months and years.

It has been so good to see your smile.
To hear the laughter from your heart, and to wipe your tears.
And to touch your hand.
And for you to touch mine-
These have meant the world to me!

I pray for a safe journey, my dear daughter,
And I hope you will know;
You have ALWAYS been a part of my heart, my soul......
And my love.

And, until we meet again............
May God Bless us both!

You Can’t Say That!
“Lord, what do You want me to do?” —Acts 9:6

According to a career-building Web site, certain words should be avoided on the job. When someone in authority asks you to do a project, you shouldn’t say, “Sure, no problem,” if you don’t mean it and aren’t going to follow through. Otherwise, you’ll become known as someone who doesn’t keep his word. And don’t say, “That’s not my job,” because you may need that person’s help in the future.

And if your boss comes to you with a problem, careerbuilder.com suggests it’s best not to blame someone else and say, “It’s not my fault!”

That’s the excuse Adam and Eve gave to God. They were told not to eat from the fruit on the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Gen. 2:16-17). When they disobeyed and were confronted by God, Adam blamed God and Eve, and Eve blamed the serpent (3:9-19). They basically said, “It’s not my fault!”

Perhaps there are things we should avoid saying to God about what He’s told us to do or not to do. For example, He gives us specific instructions for Christlike behavior in

1 Corinthians 13, yet we may be tempted to say, “I just don’t feel convicted about that,” or “That’s not really my gift.”

What is the Lord asking of you today? How will you respond? How about, “Yes, Lord!”

God wants complete obedience,
Excuses will not do;
His Word and Spirit show His will—
Then we must follow through. —Sper

The highest motive for obeying God is the desire to please Him.


Bible in One Year: Deuteronomy 8-10; Mark 11:19-33

Good morning all

Bacon & eggs
fluffy pancakes
hashbrowns
toast
rolls
milk
juice
coffee or tea
hot cereals
grits

and fresh Cinnamon rolls just out of the oven.

The dawn kisses the day, and I stand in silent peace
a breath of renewed life fills me, a life’s new lease
