It's a New Day...

I started my day a bit sluggish but as I got out of the car I heard a very familiar song and posted the lyrics on my facebook page.  "Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come.  With all creation, I sing, praises to the King of Kings, you are my everything and I will adore you."  And as I reflect on my day and what work I did, did I really adore the Lord with my words and deeds?  For some parts of the day I can say yes, for example when I took an hour of leave to meet my Dad (and Mom) at the cardiologist.  A relatively good report and for that I Thank God!  But as I drove back, very rapidly I might add, I heard terrible words come out of my mouth as I yelled at the "slow-poke" in front of me.

I just felt terrible for having offended the Lord, who does nothing but wonderful things for me and blesses me beyond measure.  I'm so thankful more than anything for His forgiveness.

Now, I'm headed to dinner with a long time friend from high school and college, Willie Laynes.  He and Patrick Doyle were BFF in high school and I guess that's really how we met.  I had this thing for boys from St. John, memories.  I'm looking forward to meeting his wife and catching up.
