2009.02.09 Monday Morning!

Greetings and best wishes to you from Pilgrim Presbyterian Church, located in the heart of Vinita, Oklahoma.

It may be a sign of old age, but I know that life's arithmetic means that for every new year we celebrate, we can subtract a year from our life.

That sounds pessimistic, but what I mean to say is don't wait too long to do what you want to do.

In too many simple things we wait too long to do them.

Don't wait too long to show kindness.
Don't wait too long to speak or write a word of encouragement.
Don't wait too long to express your love and thanks to elderly relatives.
Don't wait too long to love and enjoy your children and grandchildren.
Don't wait too long to read the books and listen to the music that enlarges your mind.
And, of course, don't wait too long to practice a daily quiet time when you strengthen your inner spirit.

Life goes by quickly.  Don't wait too long to do the things you want to do!


With blessings and in friendship,
Richard
