I like this from my daily devotion....

From Crosswalk.com...this is a devotional that I have sent to my e-mail each day. Tis one just hit me today so thought I would share...

Girlfriends in God

A quote from today....

Successful mothers are not the ones who have never struggled. They are the ones who never give up, despite the struggles. Calvin Coolidge said, “Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan, “press on” has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.” I’d like to add that God is the only One Who is Omnipotent, but persistence and determination while relying on His power brings great results!

Galatians 6:9 reminds us, “Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we shall reap if we do no grow weary.” That’s a promise that we all can cling to.

Hope you enjoy...
Hugs

Quote for the day...

Well really it is song and it is beautiful. A friend on another web site posted this as we all remember that even our children "do it their own way" and in their own time.

Thanks for reading

Shine

Sometimes I see you stuck
For such a long time
A daily nothing new
Pretend I don’t mind
With lists of things you’ll never do
Until somehow you do
And you do – you do – you shine

The days and months and years,
they run together
Is it just one day? Or is this forever?
You’ve taught me in your lifetime
More than I’d learned in mine
And you do, you do, you shine

Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
Shine your light on me
Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
everyone will see
Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
I’m so glad you are mine
And you’ll shine in your own time

Well, maybe I’m too close to see you clearly
Or is it now my role to simply believe?
You’re just one of those mysteries
That may never be solved in time
But you do – you do – you shine

And Madison will do what Madison will do when Madison is ready to do it
And Madison will do what Madison will do when Madison is ready to do it
And Madison will do what Madison will do when Madison is ready to do it
And she’ll do it in their own time

Yeah, they’ll Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
Shine your light on me
Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
And everyone will see
Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
I’m so glad you are mine
And you’ll shine, and you shine

Mm mm you’ll shine shine
You’ll shine my baby
No maybe you’ll shine
I can wait some time

I’ll wait for you to shine
Oh my baby
Well you’ll shine and you’ll shine
and you’ll shine

Quote for the day....

This is a quote from a book a friend of mine was reading....

"I strongly believe that behind the success of every disabled child is a passionately, committed, intensely engaged and totally empowered parent. Usually but not always the child's mother."

Not sure where that comes from but I also know that there is a difference between what the world sees as success and what I see as success. Hope you enjoyed.
