As I lay there I was reminded that every minute we're given and every breath we take is indeed a gift from God and that we should not waste any moment of life; for we can't count on having a tomorrow-whether we are young or old. I know this morning's pain caused me to examine my priorities and I did not like everything I saw.
By this afternoon I felt better -- even well enough to do some 'light' gardening, talk on the phone with a friend, take the dog out, cook dinner, chores ...you know the beautiful things that some call mundane. I was thankful and happy to be able to do them.
Blessings,
Aimee
"The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away... So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom." Psalms 90: 10, 12 KJV (A Psalm of Moses)
"As for man, his days are as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth. For the wind passeth over it, and it is gone; and the place thereof shall know it no more. But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children’s children. " Psalms 103:15-17 KJV

Thanks so much for taking time to leave a comment! I LOVE hearing from visitors and your comments most always leave a BIG smile on my face and sometimes a little giggle too! I do moderate comments to ensure a family friendly blog and also to catch any spam so your comment won't post immediately unless I am online at that time. However, I do check for comments regularly. If you don't see your comment post within a day or two, it's most often due to it being a Sunday (when I limit my Internet use) or, at times, a computer issue. Again thanks and have a GREAT day:)
Blessings, Aimee
