Grief will not last, joy will return,
For through our tears we clearly see
That while we part but for a time,
With Christ we'll spend eternity. —D. De Haan

Through prayer, finite man draws upon the power of the infinite God.

Child Again

If I could be that child again
Without a worry or care
And step into that childhood world
Where pain and hurt were rare

If I could feel your loving arms
Soothing all that's wrong
I'd slip into that world so quick
Where days were sweet and long

And you would take me to the park
I'd swing high in the air
For I had not a thing to fear
Because my mom was there

who love us, often despite ourselves ;)"

Good Morning, Russ.

The coffee is extra good this morning. I'm having a cup as I say Good Morning to everyone. Sure makes the mornings more bearable.
