Day By Day: The Simple Woman's Daybook # 27

Day by Day

Aren't you glad that
God takes care of us
"Day By Day"?

Day by day and with each passing moment,
Strength I find to meet my trials here;
Trusting in my Father's wise bestowment,
I've no cause for worry or for fear.
He whose heart is kind beyond all measure
Gives unto each day what He deems best
Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure,
Mingling toil with peace and rest.

Ev'ry day the Lord Himself is near me
With a special mercy for each hour;
All my cares He fain would bear, and cheer me,
He whose name is Counsellor and Pow'r.
The protection of His child and treasure
Is a charge that on Himself He laid;
"As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,"
This the pledge to me He made.

Help me then in ev'ry tribulation,
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord,
That I lose not faith's sweet consolation
Offered me within Thy holy Word.
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,
E'er to take, as from a father's hand,
One by one, they days, the moments fleeting,
Till I reach the Promised Land.

The Simple Woman's Daybook # 27

Outside my window...It's a beautiful day! November is here!

I am thinking... that GOD IS GOOD! Even when I feel lost and confused I know that God is good and He will bring me thru :)

I am thankful for... bite size snickers candy bars :)

I am praying for... my dad (he's has stage 4 cancer); my relationship with God to be better.

From the kitchen... turkey sandwiches... leftover holiday candy :)

I am reading....Ezekiel & Titus in my Bible and I just finished reading a Christian fiction novel.

I am hoping... to bring my parents to visit SC sometime soon!

I am hearing... my puppy snoring :D

Around the house... I did some cleaning this morning but I have more to do.. we had a busy weekend and the dirty laundry has taken over the house :(

One of my favorite things... my early morning quiet time :)

A few plans for the rest of the week...My boys football season is OVER so no mo football practices!! We are going to the mall tonight! Not much planned this week which is just the way I want it right now.

Here is picture for thought I am sharing...
