Reality Checkup



Ps.103:11
For as the heavens are high above the earth, 
So great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;

CN Tower, Toronto, Ontario


It’s easy to find in life’s day-to-day grind
Of lessons that teach what they must
So many a reason, no matter the season
To fret rather than pray and trust

Its easy to miss in the muddle and kiss
Of hurry and worry and more
Midst giving and taking and dream-castles breaking
The Hand that is holding the door

Where doom and mayday groom longing with dismay
It’s easy to shift our gaze
From ‘Greater is He’ to the trouble we see
On pedestals of Numbered Days

It’s easy to be overcome with the plea
And thus, numbed to mercies that pour
God’s goodness unfurled in a beautiful world
That thunders with wonders galore

(not even close to daffodils this year!)

Psalm 117:2
For great is His loving devotion toward us,
 and the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever.
 Hallelujah!
