This is the Day the LORD Has Made....

.....I will rejoice and be glad in it! Tonight is Monday April 16 2012 and today was a good day. Will I be able to rejoice in the bad days? Trying to learn how to get to that point. Any way, today I woke up feeling so much better and ready to get the stuff done that I neglected all last week.

I was able to get all those pesky bill things taken care of, took care of some Cross Tuition stuff (although for some reason my email and Cross Tuition's website aren't working. Waiting to hear back from my web hosting company), tax stuff, organized my filing cabinet, unloaded the dishwasher....my "chore" for the day so I don't over due it physically.....took my 9 year old to singing practice for a Mother's Day Musical she is in, hung out with my hubby and 5 year while we waited for her practice to finish, and held my 5 year old's hand. I love doing that! Just holding her hand and focusing on that sweet, soft hand that God allows me to hold.

Sang a song from an old Cinderella play to Jessica (5) on the way home in the car. Tweaked it a little but here's how it goes "Do I love you because you're beautiful, or are you beautiful because I love you? Do I want you because you're wonderful, or are you wonderful because I want you? Are you the sweet invention of a Mother's dream, or are you really as wonderful as you seem?" The highlight of my day was just a few minutes later when she sang it right back to me! This truly is the day the Lord has made.

My Emily (9) just walked in the room saying she can't sleep. Going to keep it short tonight because apparently she needs some love from me right now. Any way, before I go I have to tell you that the sun felt great today. I didn't realize how much sun time I needed until I finally went out into the daylight. Wonder if that's kinda how I am with the Lord sometimes. I allow life circumstances to keep me from basking in the SON and when I finally do I realize that I should of so much earlier.

God is good....all the time.....All the time....God is good! This is the Day the LORD has made, will you rejoice and be glad in it? Talk to me, I want to hear from you.

  2. Wow, what a nice complement. You just made my morning Breanna. My dad told me that he thought I wrote well but he's my dad.......kinda doesn't count lol. But to hear someone else say that really makes my spirit leap. Of course, I would like to feel self aceivement in that complement but I must say that I truly believe God has a purpose for my life....as He does everybody's......and a purpose for this blog. All those purposes I do not know, but when I write it is He Who inspires my words. To God be the glory for sure if anyone actually enjoys reading what I write. I feel so blessed that you have confirmed that God uses me at least in your life when it comes to enjoying what I write. I am in awe that anyone cares to read my blog and completely thrilled when people respond. Thank you so much to you and your family for the amazing support.
