J.C. Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Tuesday and nice weather again, one more year that winter is slow to show up. So Grateful for all the prayers that were said for me. Could say it is serenity now, I'm ready to accept any news good or bad and face life once more. This prayer came to my mind last night I think it could help some people so here it is. I Do Not Ask, O Lord I do not ask, O Lord, that life may be A pleasant road; I do not ask that Thou wouldst take from me Aught of its load. For one thing, only Lord, dear Lord, I plead: Lead me aright. Though strength should falter and heart should bleed, Through peace to light. I do not ask, O Lord, that Thou shouldst shed Full radiance here; Give but a ray of peace, that I may tread Without a fear. I do not ask my cross to understand, My way to see; Better in darkness just to feel Thy hand, And follow Thee. Joy is like restless day, but peace divine Like quiet night; Lead me, O Lord, till perfect day shall shine, Through peace to light. (Adelaide Anne Procter) Have a good day, I'll have one. Love to all, Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmydad Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Can't believe that I am saying that I am grateful to be back at work today, but I am. Being off yesterday and being by myself left too much idle time to set and think. I am really getting anxious about dads mediastinoscopy on Friday. So I am thankful for the "work" distraction. Also, it is a very warm day today (60's) and a chance of rain that we so desperatly need. Also grateful for a husband and son that I love so very much and who take such wonderful care of me. And most importantly that dad continues to feel GREAT. Teresa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trish2418 Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I'm grateful to be able to drive over the MacArthur Causeway into Miami Beach everyday. The scenery is just spectacular and takes my breath away (not in a bad way!). Trish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunny Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Grateful to be 'here' again, hoping I can plug back in to this direct line to god. Especially grateful for my little boy and his new tooth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbb Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I am so grateful that today, when we received such horrible news, is a sunny, cloudfree day. I can feel the love of Jesus so well today. It is almost weird, I have not felt that in awhile. I am really, really grateful for all of you. Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
