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

See what I can do with what I have!
Good morning.  Up with the alarm but getting around slowly.  Chores done and ready.  It is a beautiful morning - low 70s, and wet.  It rained some through the night and we are expecting more today.

Day 1710 - Living "MNTY" one day at a time.  Today, I will remember that I can work with what ever is given me.  I can make this work!  The little boy in the picture made a "church" out of scraps - that is what God does!

Today I will miss my meeting - Doris and Jean are already gone to take Cindy and Kim back to PBIA so I am staying here with Marv.  He is still asleep - gives me a chance to write this entry to my blog.  Work today - finishing up getting the men's department set up for tomorrow.  Almost done and I will make it work, and look good too.  Doris and Jean will go to Publix and Walmart I am sure.  I want to get to the gym after work, but probably will not.

Snake Road Salvage is picking up my Expo some time today -  good by to a faithful servant!  Just what I needed, just when I needed it.  Thanks Alicia for getting it for me, and thanks Jeff for helping me get it on the road, and thank you, Lord, for making it all work.  I trust your wisdom and wait on your provision for all my needs.  In His Time; In His Way!

Yesterday was a good day.  Rosa had already moved the racks into place for the men's department when I got to work - she did not want my 'suggestions' and has indicated that several times. I give then anyway and she just ignores them.  I hate that!  Jean and Marv got here a little before 3:00 and we met the Cooleys at RL for dinner at 5:00.  My steak was perfect and they sang 'Happy Birthday' to me.  Watch the full two hours of "Major Crimes" but was disappointed that one of the bad guys got away - until next season.

Tomorrow is Wednesday.  We will be busy at the store.  A & E with AJ in the morning and Bible Study at church (What the Bible Say About...Sovereignty) in the evening.   I think I have an appointment for my annual Medicare physical?  Have not heard for the VA about my annual check up there?

I am off Friday for my long weekend - but not plans yet!  I do need to go get a new copy of my SS card and to get my new drivers licenses too.  I guess those are plans!

M Y RUDDER AND ANCHOR!

Psalm 61:4,1b - I will abide in your tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of Your wings.  When my heart is overwhelmed; lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Proverbs 13:10 - By pride comes nothing but stife, but with the well-advised is wisdom.

The Word is Alive in 1 - 5  (Reading Genesis 37 - 39)  Acceptance is possible when our Faith is strong!

From "Knowing God" by J. I. Packer: Knowing vs Knowing About - (2) One can know a great deal about godliness without much knowledge of God.  We are flooded with the secondhand practice of Christianity.  God has no grandchildren!

Saved by Grace . . . Living by Faith
Mike

Like the lion and the lamb,
let us live fiercely and to love humbly!
