Fruits of Labor

If all goes well, there maybe something to celebrate about come holiday season.

I hope all my hard work and sacrifices (of not being there for my kids as much as I like) these past few months get handsomely rewarded. And I can finally start working on my wish list.

Hopefully, I may have enough money to max out Scarlett. It's another good investment since she has actually paid for herself about twice over (but then again, they're still receivables). Hopefully, I can upgrade her to a 120Gb hard drive (I will use the stock 60Gb as mobile storage) and 2 Gb of RAM, so I can run XP and Linux smoothly using Parallels.

I was actually thinking of upgrading to a MacBook Pro (I even thought of a new for it already, but I will not divulge it now), but I was thinking it was Scarlett that brought me all this work. And I believe if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Perhaps later when I really have money to burn.

And probably, I could finally work on the annulment already...

Wish me luck...

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.
