Good morning, God.
I’m planning to get up in a few minutes
but before I do, I’d like to tell you
about some thoughts running around
in my head.
First, I’m smiling right now because I’m
awake in another day and as much as I
can, I’m going to make it a good day. By
the way, I’m thinking that “good” means
productive, peaceful and helpful in some
way. Second, I plan to watch for times
when I can be useful to someone else.
What I mean is, I intend to think about
someone else’s needs at least as much
as I think about my own. Third, I plan
to watch for you during the day. I’ll
say Hello. Sorry I missed you yesterday.
It was a tough day and I had my head
down too much.
Well, I guess that’s it. The house is dark
and my wife is still asleep, but I’ll go
make some coffee now. Maybe I’ll
surprise her and fix her a little breakfast
in bed. She deserves it. What a great
woman! Did I say Thank You for all
she means to me? I meant to.
So, “feet on the floor and out the
door”…sorry, that’s a silly thing my
Mom used to say when I tried to
sleep late. Well, that’s everything
on my mind right now. Thanks for
listening. Amen.
Oh, one more thing. I’m counting
on you to help me do everything
today. I don’t think I’m up to it
by myself. Thanks. Talk to you
tonight. Amen again.
Acting on our lectio divina meditation. Wonderful!
