One Day At A Time For Him

Being on the downside of summer, I could begin to get depressed ... but I have had a new opportunity to enjoy a little more of it since retirement than previous years. Every day belongs to God, but I've found that there have been too many days that weren't released to Him and as I take note of that, I am looking for new opportunities to allow Him to live through me, and all my "circumstances".

Reading Joni's journals (www.rodparsley.com) I have been awakened somewhat to remember, many are hurting and only the true love of God reaches us when we're down or at a loss for direction. What if each day, someone is offered God's love in their situation, in stead of pointing out there problem and who's fault it is? May it be that I (and we) could be more aware of ways to reach out (blog, email, phone, out in the community, workplace) and just allow His love to be seen through simple acts of kindness. Oh yes, and forgive the nerd who cuts you (me) off in traffic!

It's my desire as unto Him, that tomorrow, today won't be a regret!
