This Day...

… sort of ordinary, really.

Minus, of course, the two carsick kids… and the detour in my hometown that cost me quite a few minutes and more than a little embarrassment when I got lost three times… and the realization that my kids really don’t understand the art of driving on dirt roads (this was made excessively clear when both Ian and Miah threw their arms up (and kept them up) because they thought we were on a roller coaster…

Stop “doing the best you can”.  Look where doing the best you can has gotten you.  You can’t do it on your own.

Don’t say, “If only…”

Don’t say, “What if…”

You can’t change the past, and there’s no sense worrying about the future.

“This Day” By: Point of Grace

This day is fragile soon it will end

And once it has vanished, it will not come again

So let us love with a love pure and strong

Before this day is gone

This day is fleeting when it slips away

Not all our money can buy back this day

So let us pray that we might be a friend

Before this day is spent

This day we're given is golden

Let us show love

This day is ours for one moment

Let us sow love

This day is frail it will pass by

So before it's too late to recapture the time

Let us share love, let us share God

Before this day is gone
Before this day is gone
