Mist and Morning Light
We walk on paths we did not chart,
With trembling hands and tender heart.
A breath, a blink, the days go by,
Like morning mist beneath the sky.
But still there shines a steady grace,
A lighthouse in the darkest place.
Though time and tide may shift and sway,
God’s love remains – our rock, our stay.
So do not fear the winds that roar,
Nor grieve the plans that are no more.
For Christ has carved, in hands once torn,
A place for you beyond the storm.

Hope…
Wherever there is no hope there is no endeavour

…a silver lining…
May God bless you with
A clear dawning
A warm midday
A golden sunset
A gentle twilight
And if clouds should cross your sky may you have the faith to look for a silver lining
Dr Robert Schuller ( American televangelist, 1926-2015)
