I decided a while back that when a day came around that I didn't have anything interesting happen, I would write about one of my favorite bookmarks. This was given as a gift at bible study one night and I just love the poem. I believe is has special meaning because of what has transpired over my life in the last 12 months. It reads...
My life is a gift of God
given not in years,
but a day at a time.
Today is the day the Lord
has made.
He planned it to be the most
important day of my life.
Yesterday is gone,
never to return.
I must not worry about it,
But leave it in the hands of God.
Tomorrow and all it holds is
God's secret and its coming
it not assured.
Only today is mine.
Each day arranged by God
with infinite wisdom and
goodness is His gift, His act
of Love for me.
In Thanksgiving I will offer Him
everyday the gift of myself,
my prayers, works, joys, and
sufferings.
Dear Lord, graciously receive it.
