Someone has said it, so tritely, and, yet, so timely..."Life is so daily".
*Today I ate breakfast with two brothers who I love and respect and felt encouraged by them.
*Today I wrote a letter to a family member who is in a horrible place, telling them I loved them, and reminding them of God's mercy and grace.
*Today I spoke to someone whose ninety year old mother, afflicted with dementia, died. I reminded her of the frequent times I heard her mother say, "Would you bless me?" (And then we would pray together...)
*Today I prayed with a man who did not even remember who I was, but, who when I prayed became quiet, and when I left him, was signing a hymn to the Lord.
*Today I studied God's Word and finished a sermon for Sunday that challenged me tow alk more closely with god.
*Today I picked squash from our our church victory garden for some needy families.
*Today I shared with some children from a broken family who don't want to hurt either of their parents, and are struggling with allegiances.
*Today I had my eyes checked and met someone whose marriage I performed several years ago and now, two children later, shared her lfie with me.
*Today I listened to a phone message from soneone asking me if there was anything more they could do for me, having voluntarily already done more than I could repay.
*Today I thanked God for today...and the daily opportunities there are to serve Him!

Hey Dale. I like this theme and have made a few entries in my blog on it. It's the days that turn into weeks, months and years that reveal the character being developed underneeth. (If interested you may want to look at the entry titled "Today: Another page in a growing book. " at alifeoftraining.blogspot.com.)
Sounds like a 'good' day. :-)
