CHANGE, GROW, REJOICE
July 20, 2019Wings in flight . . . the traveller sings,
Leaves on the now empty branch dance.
and the song grows further away.
Seasons change.
New gifts are given.
New songs are sung!

FOOLISH HUMANS!
July 10, 2019If I was passed a glass of poison to drink, I would destroy it – not drink it. God would urge me to. He loves me.
Oh, the hug He gives!
Why then, when anxiety plagues me in so many painful ways, do I hold onto it and make myself sick? Lose my joy? Perhaps cause others to follow this wrong path with me?
Turn to Him, ask for help, turn it over!
DO NOT PICK IT BACK UP!

OUR DIFFERENCES WERE INTENTENDED!
June 22, 2019God created us in His image yet each different in his and her own way. But we’re forever at war with one another over the discord we see and hear. We refuse to see His face in others and further refuse to see and hear all that can be created when we blend together! LET’S START A NEW TRADITION! THE ONE HE INTENDED ALL ALONG!- Martha L Shaw

HE LEADS – I FOLLOW – IT IS GOOD
June 21, 2019Thunderous applause
reaches me from above.
Some call it a storm
but I call it joy
Hidden wonders yet to come!
