My Prayer For "My Next Thirty Years"

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

Thursday, December 18. 2014

Good morning.  Up with the alarm - somehow the alarm got set for 5:02 - I must have hit the wrong button sometime.  Mid 50s, clear, dry - typical South Florida winter morning.  It is a beautiful morning and going to be a busy day.

Day 1683 - Living "My Next Thirty Years" one day at a time.  Today, I will remember that in the 'tug of war' with my will and God's will; when I win I lose, and when God wins I win!

Today is MMM and work at the FS.  It is down to the wire and we cannot but anything else off - got to get things ready for our trip to Georgia.  After work I may go over to help Doris at Cooley's - getting things cleaned up and ready to paint when next week. 

Yesterday was a good day.  Got a lot of work done at the store and did not hurt anyone!  Cooked out and rested mostly - worked on putting my laundry away and cleaned up the Expo a little. 

Tomorrow is Friday - leaving at noon to see the boys, YooHoo!  Leaving Honey home alone but we will be back home late Saturday night. 

Next Thursday is Christmas!  I will have a long weekend - the store is closed on Thursday and Friday, paid holiday (except for us part-time employees).  I may need to work Saturday to make up for hours lost.  But we will have the other kids that weekend - picking them up Christmas day evening.

GUIDELINES & GUARDRAILS

Psalm 87:3 - Glorious things are spoken of you, O City of God!

Proverbs 18:7 - A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.

Bible Pathways (reading thru the Bible once more in 1 - 4) - I Peter 3 - 5

Turning Points (with David Jeremiah) - "Self-judgement"  ( For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged.  - I Corinthians 11:31 )  Self-judgement, the examination of our life, should be a daily discipline based on the promise of God's gracious forgiveness.

MMM - just some thoughts: (1)  "gentle'mens' meeting at the Hall at 9:00, Saturdays.  (2) Step Study, one day a week - HOP.  (3) It is easier to understand the heart of God than the mind of God!  (4) If advice worked...!

Saved by Grace . . . Living by Faith,
Mike
