For Today…February
2, 2015
Outside my
window…a
cloudy morning, 55 degrees expecting to reach 67!
I am thinking…how grateful I
am for all the rain over the weekend.
I am praising
God for…
the way He sent His angels to help my husband and our friends get their big van
unstuck in the mud last Saturday night after two hours! It was an unfortunate end to a lovely dinner
party at our house.
I am in prayer
for…a
close friend of ours who just checked into the VA hospital for cancer treatment
today.
I am thankful
for…the
gift of a renewed membership at the Recreational Center in town!
From the kitchen…cooking 15 Bean Soup
with Kielbasa and crusty bread for dinner.
I am creating…a special
homemade card for a friend’s birthday party next weekend.
I am excited
that…I
have the funds to fly to Chicago this June and visit my family.
I am hoping
(trusting) that…my
granddaughters will get well and stay healthy and that the ear infections and
high fevers will cease.
I am looking
forward to…getting
my hair cut in a few days.
I am reading…Until Tuesday, by Luis Carlos
Montalvan, a story about a wounded warrior and the golden retriever who saved
him.
One of my
favorite things is…receiving
a bouquet of flowers in the middle of winter.
Thank you to my daughter, Amy!
A few plans for
the week…Hubby
and I are going into the mountains tomorrow afternoon and spending the day in a
favorite town there to do some shopping and a special lunch!
A favorite
quote…"Do you wish to find out
the really sublime? Repeat the Lord's Prayer" – Napoleon
A favorite
scripture…The grace (spiritual favor and blessing) of the Lord
Jesus Christ (the Anointed One) be with your spirit. Amen (so be it) - Philippians
4:23
A picture
thought…Here
I am holding my birthday cake while being sung to at my dinner party last
Saturday night!
I was invited to link my post to The Simple Woman’s Blog.
I invite others to participate as well!
Oh how I wish we had 55 degree weather right now!! Have fun in the mountains!
ReplyDeleteHey, Happy Birthday to you, Mary!! (29 again, right?!)
ReplyDeleteI love your daybook! I find it interesting that we all have this mixture of good and bad things in our days. And yet, in it all, we are always in the Presence of the Lord, the Anointed One.
Amen, so be it!!
Love this 'Daybook' forum, Mary! I may give it a try one of these days.
ReplyDelete... Mostly, I love how happy you sound.
Wishing you and hubs a wonderfully memorable excursion tomorrow! Drive safe and (if you're headed where I think you may be), don't look down. LOL!!!
Wishing you a belated happy birthday:)
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your daybook. Love to get to know you more lovely friend:)
Here is very cold. Minus three degrees and snowing!
I am so glad to see that you were able to do a Daybook Entry, Mary. I so enjoyed reading it. The fact that you are making a special birthday card for a friend brought a smile to my face.
