Day 3: Make a Plan

Posted by Demarismom

This is my Day 3. The scripture for this day says: "Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plan will succeed" -Proverbs 16:3

It also goes on to talk about how I should get focused and not let the things around me distract me. So my plan is to go through these 30 days and reach out to not only my love, but also to anyone wanting to listen. Share the word, that's my plan. Everything else should fall into place.

My Dilemna:A decision that still bothers me...I wonder did I ruin God's plan for me?

poem:"IF TODAY WAS MY LAST DAY"

Posted by Sarahlynne Bachelder

"IF TODAY WAS MY LAST DAY"
Sitting in my room day after day
Alone; with nothing and no one but my thoughts
I wonder how my life turned out this way
And why I can't just be happy with what I've got

Then the other day I heard the Nickelback song
"If Today Was Your Last Day"
And I started to realize what's wrong
And why I can't shake these feelings away

Because the closer I get to my next surgery
A difficult operation on my spinal cord
The more I wonder if it'll be the end of me
And though I've already made my peace with the Lord

I can't believe that our Isabel Grace is THREE YEARS OLD today! Man, time flies....

I was thinking this morning about the day she was born. It was such a mixture of elation, fear, and moments of sheer desperation. (Some of you may not know this, but Isabel was diagnosed in utero with a life-threatening birth defect called "Diaphragmatic Hernia"-- which carried only a 50% survival rate.)

I can't blame fully my former partner ... there are days I have wished to divorce my self .. but no legal precident is set on that .. so I am stuck living with me what do I do?
It is such a yoyo ride .. I should lend it out to a carnaval! One moment I am can be up and more than what I need and the next .. poof living on the edge! Here is a classic example ( good thing I have a deep faith some days that God will get me through!)
I was working for an insulation firm .. that had promised me what would amount to double my salary I wa makeing .. how ever I found I have only half the hours .. but after a quick sos to God .. between a couple of temp agencies I kept rolling along ... until every thing stopped!

An Extra Measure of Hay-On Christmas Day~ Christmas Write In Memory of My Dad

~An Extra Measure of Hay-On Christmas Day

Bill was a simple farmer, yet he was dedicated; always working hard.
Many chores on his list to be completed as his list just grew and grew.
Sometimes he was tempted to renig on completing a farm task or two;
But on this day of all days, there was a job he just could not disregard.

It was Christmas Day and there was a tradition that was just his own.
He loved his Hereford Cattle, and they received only the best of care.
When times were hard, he rarely had extra feed that he could spare;
But on this Holy Day, an extra measure of generosity would be show
