"Where's my Sunday paper?!" the irate customer calling the newspaper
office loudly demanded, wanting to know where her Sunday edition was.
"Ma'am," said the newspaper employee, "today is Saturday. The Sunday
paper is not delivered until tomorrow, on Sunday."
There was quite a long pause on the other end of the phone, followed
by a ray of recognition, as she was heard to mutter, "Well, that's why no
one was at church today!"

From the desk of Bob:
Our Ethan Update can be found here: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/ethanroth
Thank you to everyone with your kind words, thoughts, and prayers over the last couple of weeks and the challenging days we have been through with our Grandson, Ethan. He is now home awaiting Chemo treatments to begin in a couple of weeks. Ethan is a bright, extremely polite, kind and sensitive little boy diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor who we just love so dearly. Ethan has taught us so much over the last several days about life, tenacity, bravery, and love. He most certainly is teaching us about living in the "here and now", in the moment so to speak. Focusing on our priorities is paramount.

SEEDS of SUCCESS by Bob Prentice

Live in Day-tight Compartments
There are times when life seems, to me, to
be one gigantic pressure cooker. The regrets of the past over all the
should'ves, would'ves, could'ves, together with the fear and dread of
the future with all its obstacles and challenges looming ahead, cause me
to feel the mounting pressure. It is at this point that I remind myself
that the most effective thing I can do is to live in "day-tight
compartments."
Let me explain it like this. Say you
have a Kerr Jar, fresh-filled with summer's harvest which you plan to
consume at a later date. In order for the freshness and goodness of the
food to be preserved for any length of time, the jar must be sealed
tight or its contents will spoil.
It's like that with life, too. When I
feel like I am starting to lose control in my day-to-day activities, if I
am going to preserve the goodness, I must seal today into its very own
compartment-separate from both the yesterdays which are gone, and the
tomorrows which aren't here yet. I recognize that I cannot do anything
about the past except learn from it. I know I can do nothing for the
future but plan and prepare for it, and the best way to do that is to
focus all my intelligence, all my enthusiasm, all my energy, and all my
efforts on today. I need to live in the now-this present moment of
time-and do my best to turn the negatives into positives. Instead of
allowing the circumstances of life to "spoil" my day, I choose to
control the circumstances. I focus on what I can do, not on what I
cannot do. It is amazing what happens when I choose to live one day at a
time.
Go ahead and take ownership of this
principle and begin applying it in your life TODAY.
