See You Soon!

 A Few July Dusk shots...

We never know how near or far we are to Farewell’s severed ties

Or what waits to unfold where gold and blush begins to melt night’s skies

Or who will be the next to leave behind loved ones to grieve death’s wage

Or when the pen that writes life’s book runs out of moment-ink and page

So, wherever we are and with whatever today grants

Here’s hoping we cherish its lease while we still have the chance

And live as if today could be the last lap of life’s race

Remembering that everything is cradled in God’s grace

Remembering to trust and thank Him with hearts meek and true

And make the most of what soon hosts Past's panoramic view

On this note...this is my annual Summer Break week!

See you soon, if the Lord wills💖

James 4:13-15

Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, 

spend a year there, carry on business, and make a profit.” 

14You do not even know what will happen tomorrow! 

What is your life? 

You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.

15Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord is willing, we will live and do this or that.”

We Are Going Down the Valley
