Daily Choices By Larry Chadwick Each day when I get out of bed, Many choices lay straight ahead. Will I make the right call, Will I rely on the Lord at all? Will I focus on just the big choice, Or will I listen to God’s small still voice? Will I recognize the importance of each thing, Or will I find the world much too distracting? If small parts are what make something whole, Will I feel the same about matters of the soul? How do I go about each day as it moves on, Will I remember in all…my Lord to lean upon? July 16, 2002 If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. [This message has been edited by Larry C (07-16-2002 02:47 PM).] |

Thank You Heavenly Father for this another day, Thank You for all the blessings that You have sent my way. Thank You for my neighbors, for my friends and family, Thank You for the guidance, that You have given me. Thank You for my health, and for the forgiveness of my sins, Lead me up the right path, as this new day begins, Keep me mindful of others, as this day wears on, And I know you're not even perfect, Since meeting "Deer" and damn LongJohn.

I love this poem, Larry... my guess is that anyone who recognizes the many choices we make each day without even thinking probably makes the right ones. *S* And I was loving the thoughtful replies and appreciating the heart searching you'd started... then I got to Toe's last line! LOL |

Larry, each day before I'm half awake before I leave my bed the very same heart musings are running through my head everyday's a challenge to bring out all my best and all I ever want to hear is my child you've passed the test listening to the small still voice is never what it seems but it is the only way that you can live your dreams simple aspirations can help to clear your mind daily meditations will help you to unwind but I fond what works for me in blessing or in curse is giving praise so constantly as you've done in this verse *HuGS* Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.
