Good morning and happy Friday, I pray this day has started out in a wonderful way and that you and yours are eager for a relaxed and rest filled weekend! Sending out best wishes to the ~~COLUMBIA ROUGHNECKS~~ May our Father in Heaven be with each of you as you make your journey to Corpus Christi this evening, bless them all with travel without incident taking them to and from the game, bless the players with your shield of protection as they are on the field, let no harm befall them! In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
In prayer this morning as I sat outside, the temperature is 39 degrees, with no wind blowing, the sky is a bit overcast and hazy, but still it is beautiful just to be able to sit out and enjoy the amazing blessing of yet another day! As I sat in humble prayer I asked God to bless each of you with your needs and to keep you in his loving and safe arms today. I asked God to provide peace in mind for those who are in an emotional whirlwind, I asked God to provide calm in heart for those struggling with heartache, and comfort in body for those riddled with pain. There can be healing in all areas of your soul if only you ask God and believe that he will take it from you. I asked God to bless the families of the pilot, passenger, and two coaches for the Oklahoma State women's basketball team, who were killed in a plane crash last evening, bless the students and faculty as they grieve this day. I prayed that the negative in your life be handed off and that only the positive be allowed to stay. Heavenly Father be with each and everyone of us and if you should see us begin to step off the path, or stumble please be the hand that rights us. Asking for healing hands on a special young lady having surgery this day, may you hold her in your hands and guide the surgeon with skill and accuracy, wax her strong and heal her quickly. Father I pray that you hear our prayer today, that you allow each of us to feel your love and your strength, I ask these mercies and blessings in the name of our savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
I came across this in my readings this morning and was touched by it deeply. I pray that you will read it and follow suit, that you will let the silly arguments go, that you will never ever leave your loved one without a hug, a kiss and an I love you. Live, Laugh, and Love as if there will be no tomorrow and if there is a tomorrow praise God's holy name for another day!
NO REGRETS
If I knew it would be the last time that I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.
If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for just one more.
If I knew it would be the last time I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day.
If I knew it would be the last time, I could spare an extra minute or two to stop and say "I love you,"
Instead of assuming you would know I do.
If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day,
Well, I'm sure you'll have so many more, I can let just this one slip away.
For surely there's always tomorrow to make up for an oversight,
And we always get a second chance to make everything right.
There will always be another day to say our "I love you's,"
And certainly there's another chance to say our "Anything I can do's?"
But just in case I might be wrong, and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you and I hope we never forget,
Tomorrow is not promised to anyone, young or old alike,
Today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight.
So if you're waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes, you'll surely regret the day,
That you didn't take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss,
Too busy to grant someone what turned out to be their last wish.
So hold your loved ones close today, whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them and that you'll always hold them dear.
Take time to say "I'm sorry," "Please forgive me," "Thank you" or "It's okay".
And if tomorrow never comes, you'll have no regrets about today.
