Bend down, O Lord, and hear my prayer;
answer me, for I need your help.
Protect me, for I am devoted to you.
Save me, for I serve you and trust you.
You are my God.
Be merciful to me, O Lord,
for I am calling on you constantly.
Give me happiness, O Lord,
for I give myself to you.
O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive,
so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.
Listen closely to my prayer, O Lord;
hear my urgent cry.
I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble,
and you will answer me. - Psalm 86:1-7 Favorite Blogs: |

It is my son's 18th birthday today! I could not be a more proud dad of the young man that he is and the what the future has in store for him. Happy birthday, Justin!
On a side note...makes me feel really old.

Eclipse day...in the path of totality here in IF. Hype was we were going to get 500,000+ visitors in town so everything shut down....not happening. Got a day off for due to the hype though (well, have to work Friday instead). 2 miles after the eclipse around the greenbelt before grabbing a beer.
