everyday is a journey.
My Father! what am I, that all
Thy mercies sweet like sunlight fall
So constant o'er my way?
That Thy great love should shelter me,
And guide my steps so tenderly
Through every changing day?
ANON
Over my Christmas vacation, I went through a lot of my files that I have been accumulating over the last couple of years. The following has been there for who knows how long, but people do say that when we are in need, the appropriate things just pop up. In my quest for finding relaxation this year, I think it is extremely appropriate. It wouldn't be a bad idea to write these out and place them in a small box to pull out when doubt finds us. I hope these really do lift your spirit and remind you who you are to the Almighty Father above. Enjoy.
