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.

blessed and blessed and blessed

This morning I sit down at my desk and this is what my screen looks like
 

Joy

Last night I spent the evening with my beautiful daughter. She had just gotten her hair done for the wedding – a trial run. She was positively glowing. Michael was with me which just compounds the joy. At first I didn’t see Kyler. I called for him a couple of times but still didn’t see him. Lindsay turned to me and said ‘there he is’. I looked up towards the living room and there he was with one shoe on and one shoe off with his blanket in his hand and the biggest grin on his face and his arms stretched out for me!
Tell me I’m not blessed and blessed and blessed and blessed.
Lindsay has been under so much stress with getting everything ready for her wedding. She has been working so very hard. She wants this celebration to be perfect for Craig and perfect for their family and friends.
They loaded up my car with stuff for the event. Michael and Craig visited outside while Kyler, Lindsay and I went inside. Beautiful wonderful evening spent with my family. The only thing that would have made it better is if Wyatt, Christian and Mary could have been here too.
Can't wait for this weekend!

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.
