Gift-Receiver


An oft used reminder because we so easily forget...

Psalm 118:24
This is the day the Lord has made; (isn't that just the most sacred thought?!!)
We will rejoice and be glad in it (or will we?) 
So many things can spout through the thought process 
and not affect us one iota until we recognize God's sovereignty and
supreme love for us!

Gorgeous gift-wrap these past few mornings...



Lowered upon a gleaming tray 
The streaming sky unveils 
A never-again gift; Today 
From He who never fails 

This privilege to be a part 
Of the Creator’s plan 
Should kindle passion in the heart 
To do the best we can 

To be a careful curator 
Of moment-measured lease 
That always turns to so much more 
As aftermaths increase 

To be aware of Who allots 
The portion of our days 
And always tune the crux of thoughts 
First and foremost, to praise 

Today; more than Time set adrift 
God gifts its live-love-learn 
Oh, what, at dusk will be the gift 
We offer in return
