This poem 'pressed' to the forefront this morning instead
of the pursuit of another.
My prayer is that it will cheer and bless,
and help us as we keep our eyes fixed on a prize
that ought to challenge our motives daily!
No one knows what today will bring
but we do know on Whom we can cast all care
And ask Him to be our strength as we cheer each other on...
1 Pet.5:6-7
Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God,
that He may exalt you in due time,
for He cares for you.
I had fully intended to incorporate these quirky quackers
into today's poem...
I am helping a friend with some gardening this week
and their ducks are an endless source of amusement and delight!
May we all find opportunity to be amazed and awed by
the beauty, diversity and wonders of God's creation!
May we be His hands and feet and pray that
He helps us hunger and thirst for righteousness
so we may be filled
And protected from a futile 'chasing of the wind'...
How great our God and King
How wonderful indeed
No matter what today will bring
He will supply our need
Oh, may we not forget
No circumstance can sway
The love and grace that paid the debt
Mortal could never pay
The hope of humankind
Is anchored in the Word
Of He who does not change His mind
His purpose undeterred
He keeps His promises
How wonderful to know
His justice, truth and righteousness
No one can overthrow
Then shout for joy, and sing
God, trustworthy and true
No matter what today will bring
Will care for me and you
