Heavenly Father, teach me to number my days that I may gain a Heart
of Wisdom and fulfill your purpose for my life today.

Good morning.  Up early, slept well, ready! 

Day 1556 - Living "My Next Thirty Years" one day at a time.  Today, I will remember that today I can be like a thermometer or a timex - I can go up and down with the conditions around me or I can "take a likin' and keep on tickin!"

Today is MMM and work at the Family Store.  Teresa is still on vacation so most of the time I am in the back alone.  Donations have slowed some so I have more time to work on the books.  Alicia will be home sometime this afternoon.  Hope to get to the gym today too.

Yesterday was a good day.  Talked to the little boy by phone - they  will be down the end of the month for a day or so.  I can't wait to take them on a walk to the 'forest' and to the pond.  Got the  yard mowed, did some laundry, gave Honey a bath - enough for one afternoon.  Watched 'Major Crimes' and went to bed.  Doris called, all is well and went well for the Family - wish I had been there - really feeling left out, but it just a feeling, the fact is I did my part to enable them all to be there. 

Tomorrow is my last day to get it all done before Doris gets home - will be a long day and night.  A&E and church too.

GUIDELINES AND GUARDRAILS

Psalm 58:11 - So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous:  verily He is a God that judges in the earth.

Proverbs 12:14 - A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth:  and the recompense of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him.

Bible Pathways (reading thru the Bible once more in 1 - 4) - Isaiah 58 - 63

Turning Points (with David Jeremiah) - "Divine Equality"  ( They, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves are not wise.  II Corinthians 10:12 )
Your calling and gifts are unique...There is a special blueprint for your life, with no other name on the page.

MMM - just some thoughts:  (1) Don't be an interference, but an influence.  (2) It is my example, not my expectations that people respond to.  (3) I had to look at the damage I had done, and become willing to make amends.

Saved by Grace . . . Living by Faith,
Mike


"To be 'sanctified' is to rest in God!  It is being ones with Him, which not only makes us blameless in His sight, but a joyful in His presence."
