 Our Father's Love ~ Linda L. Dowd ~ I see a ray of God's White Light, Peeking through a cloudy sky. The cleansing rain is now drying up, As do the sad tears I cry. A gentle breeze disbands dark clouds, And dries up all of the rain. With every ray of sun that shines, Comes a lessening of the pain. My heart fills up with gratitude, As my spirit soars high on wing. And rises above all the turbulence, To where God's angels sing. I can see my life more clearly, From this vantage point high above. And realize all is forever well, When I bask in Our Father’s Love. |

Linda, thank you so much. I needed this encouragement right now! Ben “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |

XO ~ The macrocosmic view rallies over our daily microcosmic one! When we take a look at the bigger picture, we don't get lost and overwhelmed by all the distracting minutia! XO EA |

Always keep your eyes on Christ and ALL will be fine. NEVER let any human steal the love, peace, joy, happiness, & comfort God gives. Without the experiance of love where would we be? We would have no memories to cherish. |

froggy friend ~ Thank you. As you know, I have several trials going on in my life all at once. I am trying to break them down into manageable, bite-size pieces, but I have to tell you, some of them are near choking me to death. I keep saying over and over again, "And this too shall pass!" ~ like a mantra. As the old adage goes, "If it doesn't kill us, it makes us stronger!" ~ I suppose after a year like I have just through, I'll soon be looking like Hercules! Loveya! Linda |
