One of Those Days
New every morning is your love, great God of light,
and all day long you are working for good in the world.
Stir up in us desire to serve you,
to live peacefully with our neighbors,
and to devote each day to your Son,
our Savior, Jesus Christ the Lord. Amen.

Got up this morning; greeted the same wrinkled body and face of 65 years in the mirror; Who are you, o Lord and who am I? Still seems the most important question each morning.
