Time cools, time clarifies;
no mood can be maintained
quite unaltered through
the course of hours.
~Thomas Mann

Moods
I am the still rain falling,
Too tired for singing mirth—
Oh, be the green fields calling,
Oh, be for me the earth!

I am the brown bird pining
To leave the nest and fly—
Oh, be the fresh cloud shining,
Oh, be for me the sky!
~Sara Teasdale
But it is the spirit in a person, the breath of the Almighty, that gives them understanding. ~Job 32:8 ✝

Longing for spring is what I got from this and I am there. My little bit of outside time today brought it on. 🙂

Thanks. He got offered both jobs he’d applied for and has to let them know tomorrow. So they are praying about it, but I know they will take the one with Compassion International in Colorado Springs.

I like to feel His Presence in my life. I think the thought of His breath is a beautiful part of the quote from the Bible.
“The breath of the Almighty be upon your life.” I like taking the Scripture and having it become like a blessing for all, Natalie.
