Well

He needed to go through Samaria. John 4:4

 

What if He came through your town,

to your well,

just to find you?

 

 

 

 

30

The Lord will cause His glorious voice to be heard...

Isaiah 30:30

Sky

If you are fortunate to live in a land where majesty appears in the distance,

you are blessed indeed.

In my dreams there are many buildings like this one,

with domes painted Christmas blue and spires that reach to the sky.

 

Letter

I remember when the darkness left you. One moment its hand was at your throat, the other covering your eyes. You were blind, gasping, suffering, but mystified as to what was causing your turmoil. You blamed yourself, others, circumstances. All the while darkness held its grip on you. But in one moment the darkness was gone. I didn’t see it leave, but I knew instinctively it left in a panic. Something had fought the darkness and won. Something defeated it and there you stood, looking around like you’d never seen our brilliant world before. Every color was new. Each breath was like the very first; each sound, vibrant and alive, and comforting. You stood in the light a long, long time. In fact, you are still there, looking around, delighted. It makes me smile.

 

Water Tree

He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth

its fruit in season, whose leaf also shall not wither;

and whatever he does shall prosper. Psalm 1:3

 

 

Do

Wag more, 

bark less

I read this on a bumper sticker at Food Lion. 

I thought it meant do more, talk less. 

But now I think it may mean something else. 

How about, "Be happy more, complain less?"

What does it mean to you?

Shine

 This is the pond behind our house.

It reminds me that even when we are still and quiet,

the light can shine from us.

 

 

Wait

I remain confident of this:

    I will see the goodness of the Lord

    in the land of the living.

 

Wait for the Lord;

    be strong and take heart

    and wait for the Lord.

Psalm 27:13-14
