SMALL FORTUNE



💰 SMALL FORTUNE ðŸ’° 

I watched a pretty girl as she walked on by.

When a copper penny on the ground caught her eye.

She didn't seem to care if it was heads up, or heads down,

To her a coin has value, however it's found

The smile was genuine as she picked it up,

This would be a good day, can you believe the luck?

Right then I knew she had my undying affection,

Could I like that penny attract her attention?

I knew I didn't have much, so here's what I told her

"We'll be of One heart, One life; growing stronger not just older,"

A fortune's a fortune whether it's great or it's small.

Who knew our shared life would deliver it all.

She deserves all the best that a life has to offer, 

Not just some found pennies to add to her coffer.

But treasures to her are not made of gold.

They're of shared memories, our love, and more days to have and to hold.

Today I find that the luck is all mine,

She's my wife and best friend all of the time

I pray that God grants us a life of the greatest portion,

But no matter what, I've found in her my small fortune.

Love always, Your Cliff

Grace For The Day- Just For Today




 Grace for the Day

by Marjorie Holmes' prayer, "Just for Today".


Oh, God, give me grace for this day.

Not for a lifetime, for the 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...

Grace is available for each of us every day--our spiritual daily bread--but we've got to remember to ask for it with a grateful heart and try not to worry about whether there will be enough for tomorrow. There will be.

This is a favorite of mine and want to share it with you!
