A New Day A New Blessing

With each and every day we have the chance to discover a new blessing.

Today I pray for the peace within me to slow down and realize the many joys that I take for granted.

I pray for the words to show my appreciation for the wonderful people in my life.

I pray for open eyes to see the beautiful world around me.

I pray for a voice that makes a difference in some one's life.

Today I pray for servant gratitude.

Today I Pray...

...for a day of peace and rest with my family.

...for a quiet mind that embraces the day.

...that my friend who is hurting right now will remember that when she turns her troubles to God she will find strength to make it through.

...for her children who are hurting right now, that they remember that they are loved.

....for anyone out there who feels alone -- that you know in your heart that you will never walk alone.

Remember

I think sometimes in the rush of every day life, we lose sight of what really matters in life. So I thought I'd take a moment to share some simple reminders.

Remember the only one responsible for your happiness is you. It's a decision you make every minute of every day, and every day of your life

Remember that no matter what people say, you will never get where you want to, unless you start moving in the direction of your dreams.

When you're faced with a difficult decision that challenges your values -- remember to make choices you would be proud to share with your kids -- or your mother.

When you make a mistake, remember you are human and forgive yourself.
When someone lets you down, remember they are human too.

And most importantly of all -- Remember that God is walking with you ever step of the way -- whether you ask him to be there or not. So since He's with you, there's no sense walking in silence. Pray.

I love to watch the butterflies...

...their flight is pure whimsy
...fluttering freedom

They happen into our lives by chance
Graceful lovely butterflies
