SATURDAY SUNSHINE

CHAPTER 3, PAGE 4

Take One More Look

When you're down and you're out,

and things don't go your way,

When life is a problem and you can't seem to pray,

When there's bitterness, resentment, hatred and shame,

Just say one more prayer - God is calling your name.

If you're under much stress, sorrow, grief, or despair,

When the world's coming down and no one seems to care,

When love has departed, and it is more than you can bare,

Just take one more look - God is standing right there.

When you're just giving up and don't want to go on,

And nothing makes sense there's no joy and no down,

When your burdens are more than you think you can stand,

Then open your eyes - God is holding your hand.

And with Him beside you He'll lighten your way,

Bringing hope to your future with every new day.

All He asks is to listen and watch out for Him there.

And when you're least expecting,

He'll answer that prayer.

God's given you this day to be happy and live.

And if you'll accept it, He's much more to give.

Now take one more look at this life that's a chore,

Turn around, walk with Jesus - He's opened the door!

GOOD MORNING !

Saturday is here again and I’ll be off to help my folks today, but right now I’m sipping my good cup of hot coffee and waking up slowly…no rush to be out the door and off to work. I’m feeling lazy and enjoying it.

***BIG SMILE***

On My List for Lent

Give up harsh judgments——think kindly thoughts

So often we get upset by words spoken or unspoken by others. We are quick to judge others and their actions. But we never know what is going on in others lives that might cause them to speak or act rudely. I try to overlook a lot and keep focused on my actions and words so that they don’t hurt others. If a smile or a cheerful word helps someone’s day to be a little brighter, then I’m doing the right thing. That is what matters.

This weekend is supposed to be sunny, with temps in the high 30's.  We do need that sunshine here!

I hope you all are blessed with a few smiles and a little sunshine to warm your heart!

Thought for Today --

We awaken in the morning,

Wondering how we’ll meet the day,

Not knowing God stands ready

To help us if we pray
