Wonderful

His divine power
has given us
everything
we need
for life
and godliness




through our knowledge of him
who called us
by his own glory
and goodness
2 Peter 1:3

Seeing Him in these gifts,

  • afternoon sunlight through the trees
  • laughing with friends
  • quiet, restful solitude
  • grace from those who see me at my best -- and worst
  • red wine and artichoke spinach dip
  • walking through memories that no longer hurt
  • tasting life more sweet now than bitter
  • unexpected words of encouragement
  • generosity from a stranger
  • beauty in music




holy experience

"walking through memories that no longer hurt..."

Now, I can cling to this one. Indeed, God has given us everything we need to live a Godly life and to master our issues--to walk forth in victory instead of defeat. It seems to me you're doing it.

Blessings and peace to you this day. Thanks for checking in.

Absolutely exquisite, dear. Yes, I too love the portrait you paint with these words: walking through memories that no longer hurt. So poignant.

Emmanuel!
