Yesterday was full (and wet), but it was full of blessings! It was a blessing to share what You had laid on my heart at both churches, Father. It was a blessing to interact once more with the Balcom family during Wayne’s calling hours. It was a blessing to be with Karen through it all as we buzzed around delivering dessert for the Balcom family’s meal together and other things. You are a good, good Father, and I am blessed to be Your child!
As today is the funeral, I am reminded that each day is a blessing, and we must always be about Your business, Lord. Time is short, and none of us know when our last day will be. Today, we lay to rest one of Your children who lived 88 full years. And I just heard of a 2-week-old who was supposed to be going into surgery but is not able to due to a very serious complication. We just don’t know how much time we have.
Lord, use me this day. May Your light shine through. May the fruit of Your Holy Spirit be found in me today in abundance – love…joy…peace…patience…kindness…gentleness…faithfulness…and self-control. And…may all the praise go to You! Amen!!
