Lamentations 3:21-24
Yet this I call to mind
and therefore I have hope:
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness.
I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion;
therefore I will wait for him.”

Last.
Lasthours, minutes, seconds of the day.
Last one down.
Last one to sit down,
Last one to finish eating.
Last thoughts of the day.
Last prayers.
Slight whimper coming from Pixie.
She's sick, fever.
Nausea.
She'll stumble on out here for the last snuggles of the day.
I guess it's morning.
0005
First.
First snuggles of the day.
Reminding me how- sweet life is.
First-
hours, minutes, seconds.
New.
Mercies, renewed.
Day.
Blessings.
Beginings.
Faithful, just like the sun coming up.
God brings a new day.
Full of promise.
One day closer to eternity.
STOP.
Sorry, got distracted by a little Pixie.
Let’s just write and not worry if it’s just right or not. Here’s how to play along:
1. Write for 5 minutes flat for pure unedited love of the written word.
2. Link back here and invite others to join in {you can grab the button code in my blog footer}.
3. Go and comment on the post of the person who linked up before you. This is the one rule of this community.
