Dear Lord

Grant me the strength from day to day
To bear what burdens come my way.
Grant me throughout this bright New Year
More strength to endure and less to fear.
Help me live that I may be
Spite and petty malice free.
 
Let me not bitterly complain
When cherished hopes of mine prove vain.
Or spoil with deeds of hate and rage
Some fair tomorrow's spotless page.
Lord, as the days shall come and go
In courage let me stronger grow.
 
Amen
 

Wishing you a Blessed and Happy
New Year!
 
Until Next Time

I have been so neglectful of blogland during the holidays. 
There was always things to do and places to be.
 
It was a wonderful time to celebrate the birth of our Savior,
to share this special time with family and friends.
 
We're kinda in a lull now, you know, the calm before the storm!
Not that our New Year's is that active anymore.  We'll probably be in bed
watching TV and the only storm will be the local fireworks.
 
Today we went into Houston so I could spend my gift card at
Mardel Christian Book Store.
I love a good Bible study, today I decided on Fearless by Max Lucado
 
 
I love Max Lucado's books and studies, I'm really looking forward to
this study.
 
We then went to the Honey Baked Ham store and picked up a
ten pound ham, also with a gift certificate!  WooHoo, love shopping this way.
 
 
Plan on cooking some red beans and rice and a pan of cornbread tomorrow.
Maybe have Mr D's brother over for supper.
 
While we were out the weather turned bad.  I don't like being in Houston traffic
when it's raining.  Let me tell you, it's scary.
 
 
We had planned to stop and eat but decided to get ourselves back to
our little hometown and eat at home!!
 
After we ate a cuppa coffee and my chair was calling my name..
 
 
awwww.....Life is good!  Thank you Lord for all you've provided.
 
Until Next Time
