I lovingly send forth these words for you today........ they are from the wonderful Helen Steiner Rice.......
Happy Sunday!

"Often during a busy day

I pause for a minute

to silently pray,

I mention the names

of those I love

And treasured friends

I am fondest of ~

For it doesn't matter

where we pray

If we honestly mean

the words that we say,

For God is always

listening to hear

The prayers that are

made by a heart that's sincere."

"Loving God, bless all my friends today and bless those who are not yet my friends, in other words, God, bless us one and all."
