This day … I love this day
I’ll Take Time Out And Learn To Pray
Some will say “I already know how”
That’s O.Kay. I’ll start now
Each time I do … There’s Something New
I Feel Closer and Closer, My Higher Power,
To You

Defects of character. Some folks call them sins. Others call them shortcomings, or idiosyncrasies. Whatever you want to call them, I’ve got plenty of them. Is it a sin to squeeze the toothpaste tube beyond recognition? Is it a sin to warm up the house at night after a big bowl of homemade beans and pork and molasses? Is it a sin to leave the toilet seat up? The list goes on and on. It helps if I try not to do some of these. Lord, I am ready for you to remove these “Defects Of Character”.

My manner of life needs improving
My purpose of life is not yet known
My faith has been my only friend
My long-suffering is ended by charity
Patience endures

(I found this in my writings from 1991 – I wrote
chapter 3:Timothy, but it is not what is in the
Bible I now have … So I don’t know.) PGM 5/7/13
