Hopeless Until...



Lots of opportunity to analyze all kinds of angles
today as we wait and wait...
because Canada cares!!


What is Man? Johnny Cash


When we begin to contemplate 
The motive for the want we wait 
For; when weighed in the balance of 

When we strip worry down to size
To find Self its ultimate prize
Then when its offense is confessed
And Intention is reassessed

When we come face to face with 'I'
And all the truths that cannot lie
Then we acknowledge, we are dust 
Hopeless, until in God we trust

Psalm 8

O Lord, our Lord,
How excellent is Your name in all the earth,
Who have set Your glory above the heavens!

2 Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants
You have [b]ordained strength,
Because of Your enemies,
That You may silence the enemy and the avenger.

3 When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,
The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,
4 What is man that You are mindful of him,
And the son of man that You visit[c] him?
5 For You have made him a little lower than [d]the angels,
And You have crowned him with glory and honor.

6 You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands;
You have put all things under his feet,
7 All sheep and oxen—
Even the beasts of the field,
8 The birds of the air,
And the fish of the sea
That pass through the paths of the seas.

9 O Lord, our Lord,
How excellent is Your name in all the earth!
