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.

Friday

Michael went to pick up Wyatt and he said Mary was acting crazy again. She actually started the calls around noon today. She wanted Wyatt to call before he went to bed. So she wanted Michael to unblock his phone. I told her I would tell him what she wanted. I told her to remember that we did this so they wouldn't be so mean and hateful to each other. I asked if she thought she could do it. She said Michael is the one. I said, Mary, it is both of you.

She called crying about 10 minutes before Michael was to be there to pick up Wyatt. Still worried about talking to Wyatt. I know she is just wanting to bother Michael the entire weekend. I told her it was up to him.  I also told her that I would make sure Wyatt called if he was with me.

After Michael left with Wyatt she called me crying saying that she will not allow her children to treat another mother like Michael is treating her. She went on and on about how terrible I was for allowing it to happen. I finally had to hang up. She called several times afterwards but I am still at work and I just don't want to be upset right now. I sent her a text stating that I will not allow either one of them to abuse me. I also sent another text saying, once again, that I will make sure Wyatt calls if he is with me. 

I know that's not the reason for her mania . . . but it makes me feel better to try.

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.
