CHAPTER 8, PAGE 24

Another day is dawning

Another day's begun

Another day to turn to God

And pray, "Thy will be done"

A day to slay doubt's dragon,

To know within your soul

That as you give yourself to Him

He'll bless and make you whole.

A day to live with purpose

A day to show you care

When others turn to you distraught

Confused or in despair.

A day to share God's blessings

In quiet countless ways

That touch the heart with hope and joy

And brighten cloudy days.

If we might have a second chance

To live the day once more,

And rectify mistakes we've made

To even up the score.

If we might have a second chance

To use the knowledge gained,

Perhaps we might become at last

As fine as God ordained.

But though we can't retrace our steps,

However stands the score,

Today brings another chance

For us to try once more.

A day for sweet rejoicing

For gratitude and praise

Because His love enfolds you

Both now, and all your days.

GOOD MORNING!

It’s only THURSDAY!

Somehow this week seems it’s never going end. My get up and go—left ! This good cup of coffee just isn’t doing a thing for me and I am SURE it will take a few more for me to wake up today.

I was up way too late for me last night, tonight I'm going to bed early !

THOUGHT FOR TODAY

It’s okay not to accomplish a task the first time around…

sometimes patience or perseverance is the lesson of the day.

May your day be blessed with a few SMILES and lot of SUNSHINE to warm your heart ! MA

It's lovely to see your smile, thanks for sharing the pics. Take care and don't do anything I wouldn't do (plenty of scope there!). Keep smiling.
