Marjorie Holmes Quotes
Oh, God, give me grace for this day. Not for a lifetime, nor for next week, nor for tomorrow, just for this day. Direct my thoughts and bless them Direct my work and bless it.

So that for this one day, just this one day, I have the gift of grace that comes from your presence. . . .
