You have created us to live in community, O God of love; bless our friends who provide us  with the grace and love of an extended family.Endow them with the riches of your blessings: good health, sight, and mobility, that they may enjoy the wonders of your creation and share their delight with others. Bless them with keen minds and compassionate hearts that they may create a better life for all. Guard them from injustice, oppression, and evil that they may know freedom and hope lifelong. In their waking and in their sleeping, in their laughter and in their tears, surround them with your love until the end of their days; and so bring them to eternal life in peace. Through Jesus Christ, our Savior. Amen.

Matthew, Mark, Luke and John,
Bless the bed that I lay on.
Four corners to my bed,
Four angels 'round me spread:
One at the head, one at the feet
And two to guard me while I sleep...

THE ANGEL OF THE MIRACLE OF LOVE. I AM BROUGHT ALIVE BY THE MIRACLE OF LOVE. THIS SERAPHIM HELPS ME TO OPEN MYSELF TO THE LOVE I DESIRE AND CHERISH THE LOVE I HAVE IN MY LIFE. THIS ANGEL ALSO HELP ME ACKNOWLEDGE THE ACT ALL LOVE FLOWS FROM GOD.

We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties.

++A friend is asking a lot of questions about other people's personal lives, and it might drive you crazy today -- they seem to be a lot more concerned about what is going on with total strangers than with you! It might be time for the two of you to take a break. Maybe they need to be reminded of what their life is like when you're not around! This isn't the start of a spat -- getting time apart is actually a really great way to avoid getting into a spat

If you could be a little more diplomatic in your aggressive pursuit of expansion, your results will likely be better in the long run. Try to be sensitive to your family's needs for your attention and be a little less strict with your children for an enjoyable home life. You might want to call up an old friend or relative and reconcile outstanding differences.

I feel like I have been rode hard and out away wet. The boys got up and wanted to go swimming which they did. Then after breakfast I figured Mikey needed to spend some time with MM so I dropped them off and came back to the motel. Now I am getting restless. Eventually mikey called and wanted me to come down to Riverside Park which I did. I met MM there along with Christa. They were watching the boat races and it was pretty cool. Finally they decided to pick up some pizza and we would meet them at the house. Mikey and I went back to the Motel so he could change his pants and then to MM’s house and ate pizza. It was not long until they wanted to go swimming again and we took along Jake. It is always a mistake to have three boys. They bickered and I took John and Jake back to the house and Mikey stayed in the motel with me. I was surprized and flattered. He watched TV and finally fell asleep. A couple of times he sat up in bed like he was having trouble breathing –maybe asthma.
