My first post to the daily blog . . . I got this idea from my Grandma Cool. My Aunt Rita told me that Grandma used to write a little each day about, well, each day. Rita said it was boring. I don't think it would be boring. I want to read it and see what went on for her during all of her days. I want to see what she was thinking. I want to know the price of eggs fifty years ago. I want to know the weather. As I was considering starting a journal I realized that I would like to know about my own fifty years. I wish I had a better memory and could remember what happened and how I was feeling. So, here at my almost half century mark I have decided to start writing. Not that I haven't written all throughout my life. I've just thrown it away because most of it was too disturbing. I didn't want my children to read it. I'm not sure what I'll include in this blog - which is just a new term for diary or journal - at least for me. I'll apologize up front about grammer, punctation and spelling. I plan on just writing as it comes and not worry about all of that stuff.
On this day the Lord has made . . .
As I was driving home from the grocery store I heard a man on the radio ask what we were leaving our children/grandchildren. He mentioned how he would choose, over any amount of money, the writings from his grandfather . . . if he had left any.
So, I have determined to create a diary/journal of what happened to me on this day(s) the Lord has granted me.

Prayer List
- Thank you Father thank you.
- Lord, extend the kingdom of your Son.
- O Merciful God, who hast made all men, and hatest nothing that thou hast made, nor desirest the death of a sinner, but rather that he should be converted and live; Have mercy upon all who know thee not as thou are revealed in the Gospel of thy Son. Take from them all ignorance, hardness of heart, and contempt of thy Word; and so fetch them home, blessed Lord to thy fold, that they may be one flock under one shepherd, Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
- God please take the blinders from my children's heart and eyes. Please give them the gift of faith. Lord God, faith in you is so comforting and brings so much joy. Thank you!
- God please bless Michael, Lindsay, and their families with faith, wisdom, and compassion. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- God thank you for the gift of my co-workers who have shown me that it is good to show that I am a Christian. It is more than okay, it is imperative that my faith shows, so that others can come to know you. Please make me into a shining light for you. Give me the words, and your wisdom, and please don't let me cause anyone to stumble.
- God please be with my family/friends as they go through this time in their lives. Please give them strength and courage and wisdom and faith Lord.
- God please guide the leaders of the world.
- God please heal my children.
- Please heal those that have asked for prayer.
