Written for my mom for Mother's Day/Days!
(she is modeling such kind, patient and loving care to our dad
as he suffers some health challenges. She is teaching
her aging family what marriage vows look like faithful to the end,
with humility and gentleness, by the grace of God)
Thank-you for your continued prayers.
I've shared this song many times over the years
because I love it and it often ministers to my soul!
When life's outlook could overwhelm
Love, and distract us from its Source
Remember who stands at Hope's helm;
The up-look keeps our bark on course
When duty's kind demands amass
Till the outlook our joy could dim
Think on the love none can surpass;
The up-look keeps our gaze on Him
When the outlook feels fraught with care
As tolls on hands and hearts increase
Remember He who hears our prayer
The up-look keeps our perfect peace
Janet Martin
Isa.26:3
You will keep him in perfect peace,
Whose mind is stayed on You,
Because he trusts in You
Matt.14:27
But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying,
Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
