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.

Holy Spirit

Last night I woke up in the middle of the night thinking about Uncle David and how quiet he has become. Then I realized that he may not be quiet but it is my fault for never going to see him, and when I do go to Springfield, I don't talk to him. Then I was mad at myself. It is hard enough growing old without having people ignore you.

Then I realized that since he was so strongly on my mind that I needed to pray for him and pray for Curt and for Lizanne and all of their families.

Well, today I was taking Scout to the Vet, and Emily was so strongly on my mind, I couldn't quit thinking of her until I arrived at the Vet. Then, while the Vet was testing Scout's blood, I looked at my Facebook account and Beth had posted something about loving someone in Heaven. Now I know why Emily was so much on my mind. Beth is having a rough day. My heart aches for Beth so much. I LOVE how the Holy Spirit works though, how He connects us so that we do know to pray or to reach out to each other.

I love God.

  • 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.
