Good morning everyone!





The Weaver
by Anonymous


My life is but a weaving, between my God and me,
I do not choose the colors, He worketh steadily.
Ofttimes he weaveth sorrow, and I in foolish pride
Forget He sees the upper, and I the underside.
Not till the loom is silent, and the shuttles cease to fly,
Will God unroll the canvas, and explain the reasons why
The dark threads are as needful in the skillful weaver's hand
As threads of gold and silver in the pattern He has planned.


He knows, He loves, He cares,
Nothing this truth can dim.
He gives His very best to those
Who leave the choice with Him.

Braver Than Brave
 

 

 

You smile even though your heart is down
You laugh when you're in pain
You cry inside
Then wipe your tears
And prepare to face the world again

You whisper when your soul is aching
You worry that you're not good enough
You think that you aren't strong
But you're stronger than the mighty tough

You're an angel with invisible wings
You're so strong you'll never know
How proud i am of you
You're the bravest person i know

And next time that you're hurting
I want to see you cry
Don't run away and hide it from me
Let me hold you
Till your pain subsides

Lucy Vernezze
