Restoration Vision Oh my God, place within me, Your joy, Your righteousness, Your song. Give me the sight to see, Beyond my childish dreams. Create a heart within me, Free from bitterness and spite. Place in me a joy, Your LOVE, For treating others kind and right. Let me not look longingly, inwardly, At what I fail to find in me. Turn my vision selflessly, To what others' needs may be. Give me the strength and patience, To humbly, mercifully carry through, With the big and little things, That, in right heart, does glory to YOU. Sherry Lynn Gardner Cherish the good memories past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow. But above all... be kind to yourself today.

It certainly looks like Phil 1:6 is working strongly in your life, thank God. |

I think you've had your prayer answered many times over. I know you have probably more "right" than most to be angry and spiteful at many people in your life. But you're not... The poem is exquisite! Love and ![]() Mom |

Thank you all for reading. Interloper, I had to look up your reference.... I sure hope so.... got a long way to go though. Alterego, Mom, Thanks for the compliment. I understand you and I have history and so you can refer.... You are right, I have had my prayers answered many times .... I just want to clear up a misconception..... The "right to be angry" pulls you out of God's hands. I had to learn that lesson the hard way. When you feel that your "rights" have been trampled, you have to assume that we HAVE the right to question our Creator. We are the work of HIS hands, the trials of our life only serve to mold us into the spirit filled children of God that we will become if we keep our eyes focused on Him. Love Sherry Cherish the good memories past and look forward to the adventure called Tomorrow. But above all... be kind to yourself today.
