Happy Birthday!!!
Jan 08, 2008
Today is my Birthday and I am now officially 42 years old!!! This is going to be my LAST FAT Birthday!!! Yeah me!!! Surgery in 5 days and a wake up...I am still excited and anxious...most likely wont get nervous and scared until I am in the bed at the hospital in my gown waiting to go into the operating room....seems to be the way with me. I think it is the whole saying good bye to my husband before they wheel me away...it breaks my heart.
I have my bag packed with my own personal night gown, three pairs of cotton socks, slippers, undergarmets, toothbrush,toothpaste, mouthwash and hair brush, cross word puzzle book, a book to read, and my pills...just in case they don't give them to me at the hospital like last time, and of course my pillow and my CPAP machine will be going too.
I am so ready to move on the losers side of the bench...wont be long now!!!
Attitude of Gratitude
Jan 07, 2008
I ask now for Your forgiveness. Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You. Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things. Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over. And It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart. Continue to use me to do Your will. Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak... Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others. I pray for those that are lost and can't find their way. I pray for those that are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who don't know You intimately. I pray for those that will delete this without sharing it with others. I pray for those that don't believe.
But I thank you that I believe. I believe that God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers. For each and every family member in their households. I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt and all their needs are met. I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God. Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight. I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees it.
God
I love you and I need you, come into my heart, please.
