Uncertainty ~

in
the midst
of
distractions


when
it's
difficult
to
focus


I can
still
enjoy the light

Faded ~

the
wind
tumbled
leaves old


like
the dryer
leaching
moisture


 on the last
cycle

autumn
grew faded
and
barrenness crept in

Quietness ~

may your day
be
filled
with peace


and
in quietness
may
you find strength

Food for the Journey ~

had
I
not seen
the robins dining


the imperfection
of
the berries


would have lost
their
sweet appeal
~ ~ ~
I would like to have caught
an
image
of the robins
but
they were eager
to
continue their journey
south
~ ~ ~
this was a reminder to me
that
the bruises in another
may
have come
from
feeding someone else
~ ~ ~
He
who covers over an offense
promotes love
but
whoever
repeats the matter
separates
close friends

Watching ~

in the warm glow
of
the kitchen

thinking
of
supper

I
glance
through the window

and see
him


he doesn't
see me

yet

but somehow he knows

someone's watching

another day

a
similar time

I
see her


she doesn't
see me

yet

but somehow she knows

someone's watching

I go
about my days

I
can't see Him

yet

but
I know

Someone's watching

and

guarding me

in
all of my ways

~ ~ ~

You gave me life
and
showed me kindness,
and
in your providence
watched over my spirit.
Job 10:12 NIV

Listening ~


if
I didn't
embrace
the
rhythm
if
my soul
could
hear no music

the world would be
a
lonely place

~ ~ ~
edited: some of you have asked what this is
they are called
Chinese Lanterns
if
you pay a visit
to
Ann's
you can see more photos

Thankful ~


thankful

for

torpid water touched

spittled mud

"great" and "little"
honored

second chances

the
"immediately"
and
the
"as they went"

for
humility that breathed
an
agonizing yes

thankful
for
so very much

1 Peter 2:21-25

A New Direction ~

there are times
when
my
mental GPS
needs
reprogramming


I suspect that
that is
what
pondering
whatever
is
pure, lovely, authentic,
excellent & gracious
is
all about
Philippians 4:8 MSG & AMP
