1402. The whole world…
I’m praising God over and over again tonight for finding me and drawing me to Himself. He has shown me over and over, and most undeservedly I might add, grace upon grace upon grace… Two weeks ago I prayed that the melanoma on James’s head would be successfully removed and that it would not have metastasized and my prayers were answered. And again this week I had a couple of worrisome health issues for a few days and He has answered my prayers once more because the biopsy I had to have yesterday showed that the tissue they removed was benign and what I feared was a re-occurring neuropathic ulcer on the bottom of my big toe was as of now only a hemorrhagic callus that hopefully the doctor and I can keep from becoming another ulcer like the last one that took months to completely heal. So God as always is AMAZINGLY good and faithful and worthy of all my praise. Thank you Jesus, Lord of all! I adore you and you are always more than welcome here and in my world.

Today’s Quote
Now And Always
Before “will be”
and after “was”
lies the limitless now
inviting us to return home
from nonexistent lands.
JDG
I have given you life . . .
Man asked God:
‘Please give me everything to enjoy life.’
God replied,
‘I have given you life to enjoy everything.’

. . . but let my soul be as a temple of remembrance
“Let my body dwell in poverty, and my hands be as the hands of the toiler;
but let my soul be as a temple of remembrance
where the treasures of knowledge enter
and the inner sanctuary is hope.”
― George Eliot

Between paths
We walk through fields and valleys
life moves us along as the wind blows
choosing our place between beauty and peace
we greet each storm with hope.
Colors invade the space of our senses
crafting a universe of all we see,
for choosing light through darkest clouds
we break through to find
a new and clear open horizon,
a course to chart and find
with each continued step along the way.
We close our eyes and listen
as words are said and we give it meaning
understanding when it is time to move on,
leave behind the ditches and mire
climbing out with lended hand
we reach out to grasp on to what we know
and leave the decay behind
as the shadows cry on
still muttering away about it all,
we smile and break free
flying high on a life of peace
in dancing flowers of hues too many…

If you lose hope, . . .
“If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality
that keeps moving, you lose that courage to be,
that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all.
And so today I still have a dream.”
~Martin Luther King Jr.
Artist~Bessie Pease Gutmann

Come with Me
Come walk with me into the night.
Come to the fields with me.
No man-made glitz, no city lights
Taint tired eyes to see.
Some say that all this grandeur vast
Made self by chance and time.
Come, look real close and see the past –
Behold God’s forged design!
So many stare and think they’re wise.
They search for life in stones.
But you must listen with your eyes –
Indeed, you’re not alone.
Come hear the song the vastness plays;
Of wisdom this tune sings.
Come bend your ears to stars arrayed.
They’re singing you a hymn.
This song sings of the Maker’s Heart –
Of God, Emmanuel –
Who had a plan right from the start,
That Light in you might dwell.
This Light is Jesus Christ, God’s Plan
Who died … your sins to take;
His love for you through vastness spans.
Seek Him, before daybreak.
