Thought for the Day 5/31/2024

Friday Tale - A.S.A.P. 

Ever wonder about the abbreviation A.S.A.P.? Generally we think of it in terms of even more hurry and stress in our lives. Maybe if we think of this abbreviation in a different manner, we will begin to find a new way to deal with those rough days along the way. 

There's work to do, deadlines to meet;
You've got no time to spare,
But as you hurry and scurry-
ASAP-ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER 

                In the midst of family chaos,
                "Quality time" is rare.
                Do your best; let God do the rest-
                ASAP-ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER. 

                         It may seem like your worries
                         Are more than you can bear,
                         Slow down and take a breather-
                         ASAP-ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER 

                                 God knows how stressful life is;
                                 He wants to ease our cares,
                                 And He'll respond To all your needs
                                  A.S.A.P.-ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER.

Do not be anxious about anything,
BUT in every situation,
by prayer and petition,
with thanksgiving,
present your requests to God.
~ Philippians 4:6
