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

Monday, September 15, 2014

Good morning.  Up early, slept well, chores done, ready for the  work week to get started.  September is half over already and it seem that I have not even started. 

Day 1590 - Living "My Next Thirty Years" one day at a time.  Today, I am going to slow down (at least mentally) and experience 'this' day - to care more, to share more, and to bare more.

Today is MMM and work at the Family Store.  Should be a full crew today - should be!  I have a lot to do in men's clothing and electronics so I will not have time to get into any one else's business.  I will try to get to the gym after work - my watch still has not shown up - probably never will - I really am bummed - it was a father's day gift from Alicia.   Will mow this afternoon if it does not rain.

Yesterday was a good day.  After church we went out to GC for dinner.  Then I watched the Cubs lose to the Pirates.  And after the Sunday evening service we learned that Roy and his family are leaving.  I really was shocked and saddened by the news.  One more 'change' for me to handle!

Tomorrow is Tuesday.  I do not dare think about what may change tomorrow!

GUIDELINES AND GUARDRAILS

Psalm 74:18 - Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O Lord, and that the foolish people hast blasphemed thy name.

Proverbs 15:1 - A soft answer turns away wrath:  but grievous words stir up anger.

Bible Pathways (reading thru the Bible once more in 1 - 4) - Daniel 1 - 3

Turning Points (with David Jeremiah) - "When Surprises Come!"  (O God, You are my God; early will I seek You; my flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land where there is no water.  Psalm 63:1)

MMM - just some thoughts:  (1) Have more confidence in others - God's grace is at work.  (2) Quit expecting others to change - they won't!  But I can!  (3) I cannot give what I want;  I can only give what I have.

Saved by Grace . . . Living by Faith,
Mike
