Every day is a beautiful

beginning.

Thy word is a lamb unto my feet

and a light unto my path.

Have a good day.

All sorts of things

are possible with God...

my name is .

I'm gonna pray with you.

Create in me a pure heart,

O God...

in my newest steadfast

spirit with me.

Restore to me the joy of your

salvation and grant me a

willing spirit to sustain me.

And yes, always remember,

in everything, God works good

for those who love Him.

The beauty of your creation,

in earth and sky...

God grant me the serenity

to accept the things I can,

and the wisdom...

For hearts to love,

for hands to serve.

Breathe in faith.

Breathe out fear.

Where there is hatred,

let us sow love.

For all valiant seekers,

after truth, liberty...

Are you there? Speak up.

Now say it with me.

...make us instruments

of thy people.

I remembered you.

Be not frightened...

neither be dismayed,

for the Lord, your God

is with you.

Wherever you go...

Wherever you go...

Wherever you go...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, Cora!

I gotta get out of here!

I'm sorry, we do not make our

own break schedules here.

I... I am through!

Not to mention that business

with the lunch run

was rather nasty...

I'm through& done!

Serena had to make a run

to Mick D's, of all places.

I can't...

this is bullshit.

I am not cut out

for this bullshit.

I don't deserve to be

in there with those freaks!

All right, that's enough.

Do I really have to remind you

why you're in there?

No.

Now I understand you may

be adjusting...

but this could go very quickly

go from a nice setup to one

that is not so great.

Isn't that true?

The charges against

you were steep.

We petitioned the court, so you

wouldn't have to do jail time.

Jail time. I want you to think

about that, would you?

And I am still meant to answer

to that judge, you know?

Now we are graciously,

so very graciously...

allowing you to repent

for your sin against us,

and Him, and the church.

Are we clear?

Yes, sir.

All right, you go home,

get your head together.

I'm gonna have to dock you for

today's hours and yesterday's,

too, for that matter.

And don't think you can just go

through the motions and get by.

It might do you some

good to actually partake.

Understood?

Yes.

Yes, Mrs. Koehler, I think

that's a great idea...

to commit to a daily devotional

while you work through this

time with your husband.

MRS. KOHLER He

told me he wouldn't do it again

if I gave him a third chance.

Really?

Well, then, I think you should

tell your husband to go to hell

Seriously... Mrs. Koehler?

WO Is there

anyway the check can come

in this week instead of next?

Well, rest assured we will

handle your prayer request
