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.

Pursuing Hope…

We should not let our own feats hold us back from pursuing our hopes.

…through the cracks…

“There is a crack in everything,

That’s we’re the light gets in”   

                    Leonard Cohen

Hope…

Wherever there is no hope there is no endeavour

– Samuel Johnson

Hope is needed

Hope is forever needed. The miseries of poverty, sickness, of captivity, would, without this comfort, be unsupportable.

…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)
