then burn away darkness with firey zeal
and remember all the good things that have passed
and that are yet to come
the promises given for a vibrant future
of renewal and kind regards
of friends and peoples
of passing beauties and lasting joys
I celebrate these and the other blessings that God has given me, especially in the gift of my readers
heh. I find it to be a very kind act that people who have not known me in the physical world actually feel something for me here and pray for me. That these same people take time out of their lives to read my entries, to care and to pray.
Lord, I am thankful
this in itself is a great present
I have had such a rich Christmas
because I've been given so much
and been through the darkness
which makes the light even sweeter
and all the more beautiful
having bad times reveals how wonderful things are when times are good- it makes me grateful, and clarifies my vision as to what is best.
Thank you.
