Overflow

Before our story has finally been told, we must greet 
the morning as the air does flow
into our mouths and nostrils.
We must seize the day as the light does come in and 
wake our eyes from a very good
night's sleep.  Time to get up and enjoy some morning fare, 
to gather our thoughts and strength for this new day's arrival... 
then go about our business, jump into the tasks that lay before us.
Dot our I's and cross our T's, cross off our list of to do's.
Don't forget to be charitable to others during waking hours.
Forgive those who are not always as personable and loving as 
we may be, for we must pray for all to see that the Glory of 
the Lord is still very  plainly seen, and for us to bask in God's
presence, to roll around in His Love so we can overflow with 
His Joy, with His strength from above.
So when the day has ended and night comes strolling in, we can 
then truly say I did make the most of my day.
So Lord let Your angels watch over me as I sleep, and I always 
sleep with a happy grin,an energy that radiates 
from my head to my feet!
