Words for today

It's been 9 days since I do my last post.. :)

It's means datelines,
it's means house to clean, a daughter to play with, a husband to chat with, a mother to be accompanied, and you know what, in all these commotion I found this beautiful prayer from Melody, thanks Mel!

I mean beauuutiful prayer, well.. you can call me melancholic, but read this and let me know whats on your mind..



















Lord, thank you for this sink of dirty dishes; we have plenty of food to eat.
Thank you for this pile of dirty, stinky laundry; we have plenty of good clothes to wear.

And I would like to thank you, Lord, for those unmade beds; they were so warm and comfortable last night. I know that many have no bed.


My thanks to you, Lord, for this bathroom, complete with all the splattered mirrors, soggy, grimy towels, and dirty lavatory; they are so convenient.

Thank you for this finger-smidged refrigerator that needs cleaning inside and out. It has served us faithfully for many years and has enough food in it for several meals.

Thank you, Lord for this oven that absolutely must be cleaned today. It has baked so many things over the years.


The whole family is grateful for that tall grass that needs mowing and the lawn that needs raking; we all enjoy the yard. Thank you, Lord, even for that slamming door; my kids are healthy and able to run and play.

Lord, the presence of all these chores awaiting me says that you have richly blessed my family. I shall do them cheerfully and I shall do them gratefully.
