Inspiration for today... "An Ugly pair of shoes" (this is good!)

Good morning ladies...  I pray that you all find some peace today...  I thought I would share that today would have been Grace's edd (by ultrasound measurements)..   It is going to be a hard day for me, I would appreciate any prayers. 

Does anyone else have any prayer requests for today?

Verse...  "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28

Thought for today..  In the midst of your daily storms, make it a point to be stil and set your sights on God.  Let God be God.  Let him bathe you in his glory so that your breath and your troubles are sucked from your soul.  Be still, be quiet.  Be open and willing.  Then you will know that God is God.  Max Lucado.

Song/video..  I think I needed this reminder today.  God never lets us go.  He is always there even when we cant "feel" him.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBWyHNf_SSM

"An ugly Pair of Shoes"

I am wearing a pair of shoes.
They are ugly shoes.
Uncomfortable shoes.
I hate my shoes.
Each day I wear them, and each day I wish I had another pair.
Some days my shoes hurt so bad that I do not think I can take another step.
Yet, I continue to wear them.
I get funny looks wearing these shoes.
They are looks of sympathy.
I can tell in others eyes that they are glad they are my shoes and not theirs.
They never talk about my shoes.
To learn how awful my shoes are might make them uncomfortable.
To truly understand these shoes you must walk in them.
But, once you put them on, you can never take them off.
I now realize that I am not the only one who wears these shoes.
There are many pairs in this world.
Some women are like me and ache daily as they try and walk in them.
Some have learned how to walk in them so they don't hurt quite as much.
Some have worn the shoes so long that days will go by before they think about how much they hurt.
No woman deserves to wear these shoes.
Yet, because of these shoes I am a stronger woman.
These shoes have given me the strength to face anything.
They have made me who I am.
I will forever walk in the shoes of a woman who has lost a child.
