Field Day Expectations

Circumstances seem overwhelming . . . or is it just my high expectations and deep desires for the day? I was hoping for enjoying field day with Japheth by my side and lots of help with the children . . . but Japheth got a call from a lady who desperately needs her sewing machine fixed right away so he’s going in early this morning to do that and yesterday I found out that he is helping direct the shot-puts, the high jump and maybe more if Daddy is still sick

.  . . . So after shedding a few tears and meditating on God’s Word,  I’ve been challenged by these thoughts:

Will I find enough grace for today . . .and tomorrow?  Will God find his grace in me?

And the Lord said unto Moses, “I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken;  for thou hast found grace in my sight.”

1”And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.”  John 1:16

“ . . .Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.”  Acts 13:43

“Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Ghost.”  Romans 15:13

“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.”  Philippians 4:23
