Give me just one more day, Lord

January 1, 2024 by Don Kuhl

(inspired by George Jones)

Give me just one more day, Lord, and I promise:

To eat the blackened banana and leave the yellow one for Sherry.

To tell my three best friends I love them.

To stop feeling sorry for myself, even when I’m hurting.

To open doors for teenagers at the mall without expecting to hear a “thank you.”

To write that love letter to Aunt Ellie.

To rub Nigel’s tummy every time he rolls over.

To forgive Charlie, I mean really forgive him.

To slowly lick a chocolate ice cream cone without dripping it on my blue T-shirt.

And to fully embrace the one more day you have given me, Lord.
