Today I was asking myself- what would I do with one extra day?
I stopped to admire the beauty of this awesome place I am blessed to live on a perfect spring day
Sitting in this place I contemplated grace. Living in grace. I thought about Marjorie Holmes's prayer 'Just For Today'
Oh, God, give me grace for this day.
Not for a lifetime, for for next week, nor
for tomorrow, just for this day.
Direct my thoughts and bless them,
Direct my work and bless it.
Direct the things I say and give them blessing, too.
Direct and bless everything that I think and speak
and do. So that for this one day, just this one
day, I have the gift of grace that comes from your presence…
Not for a lifetime, for for next week, nor

and do. So that for this one day, just this one
day, I have the gift of grace that comes from your presence…
I had one perfect day. Because this one day is all you have.
