"Music always sounds better on Friday." ~ Lou Brutus, American radio personality, program director, voice-over talent, musician, and photographer.

Welcome, one and all, near and far, as we embrace the day the Lord has given to us, this one happens to be Friday, January 30, 2026. I have written much on the subject of the TGIF concept built into the psyche of most workers in America. For me, Friday was for the most part, nothing more than the day before Saturday because most of my time in the workplace did not reflect the highly vaunted 5 day work week. But, to each his or her own, and, while I don't completely get the huge sigh of relief that comes with Friday, I am well aware how embedded it is. Therefore, to get along I want to share this as a way of looking at the life God has provided to each of us. Thank God for every day He gives because He does have a plan and purpose for those who are His own. His plan for you and me is a 24x7 walk and it extends to each and every day we draw breath here on the planet. Lecture? Absolutely not. I'm just setting the standard high because while I can easily miss the mark at anytime and on any day, it does help to be reminded that God is not bound by the clock on the wall and He is always there to get us back on the track that honors Him and is best for each of us as individuals. I hear you. Some out there likely know just how badly I've missed living out God's plan. You are 100% accurate in your recollection. However, I'm now in the mode of handing down what I have learned and what I continue to learn. Therefore, it pays to live within the plan and purpose of the One who knows you best and loves you the most. He proved that by sending His one and only Son to die for us. Okay. That's my Friday expose with the admonition to do better than I did, it will be worth it. Too late for me to wallow in the what if, but, I can encourage others to do what Micah, the Prophet of God advised, "act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God, (Micah 6:8)

 

If you have any questions, let me know. If you have any complaints, consider keeping them to yourself or feel free to take it up with my editor. She stays close by to watch over my blog inputting process. Not always. She tends to nap a lot, just like she's doing in that photo. But, she typically is good company and she does not often interfere with the flow of thought I pursue. I know she enjoys the blogging process. How? Right now she is as out and limp as a rumpled up dish towel. She must have found her happy place. C. J. Frick, writer about dogs, has a popular book entitled, 'Be the Person Your Dog Thinks You Are'. My guess is that would be a tall order for me. Not a bad goal but no doubt it would behoove us all to be the person God wants us to be and the one He is willing to help us to be. Until next time, I bid you farewell and Godspeed from myself and Lil Miss Biscuit. May God add His blessings. Amen.
