I wish I knew his name but I have only come across the story second hand.
It
is a great story...a simple every day happening that shows what the
power of saying over and over again an eternal truth in all the ways we
can and all the way we should.
What counts, of course, is the creativity of it.

We
all have had our eye exams but at least for myself I have never seen a
flip chart like the one in Dallas before a catarach operation.
Instead
of the what most such eye exams read, “Now is the time for all good men
to come to the aid of their country,” this opthamagolist has had one
made that reads, “God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.”
Then
when the patient comes back for a checkup he show has them read the
chart again, “God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life.”
And,
of course, for most it is an underlining of a truth they know but in
the rush of daily living too easily forget, “God loves ME and has a
wonderful plan for MY life.”
Grace is hard to understand because we live in a world where a great deal of what we get is what we have.
During my college days I worked at a store that paid commission. What I made I truly earned. I sold more, my salary increased.
When I played baseball if my batting average dropped or I dropped too many balls I was put on the bench.

As an end in football it was understood that my time on the field or waiting for another chance would be in direct proportion to how well I held on to the ball.
But then into the game of life steps a coach called God and a corporation called heaven.
There are rules and regulations, commandments they are most often called. He has divine hope that we will play by the rules.

Sometimes we do and sometimes we don’t. When
we falter and fail he sighs, points to a cross and essentially says,
“Don’t worry. I won’t drop you from the team. I love you anyway. Nothing you do will make me stop loving you and forgiving you.”
“Man lives by getting and forgetting. God lives by giving and forgiving.” (Author unknown) The Psalmist wrote “a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.” (Psalm 86:15)

Serialization of another book SIXTY PLUS AND NOT HOLDING
This book, SIXTY PLUS AND NOT HOLDING, is about dealing positively with the challenges of getting older and fosters the belief that “If we would have new knowledge, we must get a world of new questions.” (Susanne K. Langer)
“I am come that they (you) may have life and have it to the full. (John 10:10)
Anyone who lives long enough gets older. There are no other options. How we handle the adventure is filled with options.

Keep both eyes on life, and not on the calendar. Admit your age, but don’t admit to the fallacy that you have to act like it. Saying, “I’m 39 and holding,” is more tragic than humorous because it argues that age has no attributes.

Below a quote from it…
“Be like the farmer who, when asked what he was building, replied, “if I can rent it, it’s a rustic cottage. If I can’t, it’s a cow shed.”
It’s called attitude and it can make us prematurely old or longer young. For truly, things aren’t just what they are, but rather how we choose to see them.”

A quote below from tomorrow’s ONE A DAY blog entitled GOD LOVES YOU WARTS AND ALL (3rd in Series)
“God, is a celestial chef who offers an unbelievable feast of forgiveness. When we accept the Lord we
are offered then a spot near the throne of grace and given a heavenly
menu beyond compare. You put in your order by affirming your faith, so
now enjoy a forgiven life…that’s another way of putting it.”
