Hopeful Friday
Thursday, February 26, 2009
Today is Hopeful Friday hosted by Cielo of House in the Roses. If you stop by you will be inspired and touched by HOPE.
"Just for one day I promise,
To see God's love in all things,
In the calm, the joy and the peaceful.
In the burden, the pain and the sting.
I will look to His love in the moonlight,
In the wave of each swaying branch,
In each breath, in each step, in each moment,
I will pause to my Lord and give thanks.
Though the turbulent waters surround me,
I'll be still as a calm peaceful lake,
For if He is in charge of this temple,
Then the outcome to all will be great.
So with my new mind I'll sing praises,
And release alleluia's sincere,
For if God and I are this temple,
Then the outcome to all will be clear.
So do not sway for a moment,
When dark clouds are somber and gray,
Just look to the sunshine beyond them
And just let the Lord have His way."

Beautiful.... and such an uplisting message... thank you Karen... “May God grant you always... a sunbeam to warm you, a moonbeam to charm you, a sheltering angel so nothing can harm you. Laughter to cheer you. Faithful friends near you. And whenever you pray, Heaven to hear you.” (Irish blessing)
