I wonder what the day would have been like without prayer and devotional text? What if more people did that and everyone had good days. Maybe nothing. But its definitely a mind set…..Someone could see your day and thing what's so good about going to a dreading meeting at work, or to the dentist, or having to exchange pants in the first place. I do not thing this btw, I just mean to say that if everyone could take a moment to start off the day by getting their mind right, even if its as simple as listening to happy music, might we live in a better world?

Sorry!! I am having so many problems trying to put my link in. I did a few double post. I was on my private blog.
Anyhow….I LOVE how you do your devotionals first thing inthe morning, I wish I could do that. It takes me atleast three hours to wake up and between driving the kids to school and the husband, there is never any time..although I am sure I could find the time.

ok, so JUST NOT having a tooth canal sounds like it is an AWESOME day….but when thinking about my daily life….your daily life….and then thinking about the lives of some people in this world….WE'VE GOT IT PRETTY DAMN GOOD!
Let's say thanks to God for the unfilterd computer access, the electricity, the car to pick up Mom from work, the phone to call our friends for a laugh….let's just say THANKS overall for everything that we;ve got!!!!!
