Acceptance of the bad and the good in life., Country and Farm Photography., Facebook photo by Carolyn Anderson., Gratitude towards God., Poetry by Yu/stan/kema.

Thank you, God, for the darkness.

It helps me enjoy the light.

No matter how bleak life seems,

Morning follows the night.

 

Thank you, Lord, for the hard times.

They often try my soul.

They build in me strength and courage

And the will to complete a goal.

 

Thank you, God, for the heartache,

That I’ve had along the way.

It has taught me to be much kinder

Towards those I see each day.

 

Thank you, Lord, for the Teacher

Who is helping me to find peace,

Learn to control my emotions,

And find some blessed release.

 

Thank you, God, for each morning

That I find myself still alive

And eager to spread God’s love,

So others are able to thrive.

REFLECTIONS OF A MINDFUL HEART AND SOUL

Found on Pinterest on 7-3-15. Found on Pinterest on 7-3-15.

I saw a child skipping down the street.

Her hair was dark like a raven’s wing.

Her eyes were blue as the summer sky,

Her face was  sweet and I heard her sing.

She caught my eye as she passed by.

Her face was filled with a holy light.

I heard her laugh as she softly sang

The words she said with such delight:

“I’m a lucky child who is loved by God.

He expects me to give to others here.

It doesn’t matter if I’m not loved back.

God’s by my side and He is near.”

“My part is to do His gracious will,

To give His love to all in need,

To mirror His grace for all to see:

God is Love. This is my Creed.”

Favorite Poems I Like #13: “This, Too, Shall Pass Away.”

"This too shall pass away.", Life events are temporary., Life is a balance., Pinterest photo-travel.allwomenstalk.com., Poetry by Lanta Wilson Smith., Quote by Yu/stan/kema., We must focus on the positive.

When some great sorrow, like a mighty river,

Flows through your life with peace-destroying power,

And dearest things are swept from sight forever,

Say to your heart each trying hour:

“This, too, shall pass away.”

 

Found on Pinterest on 8-9-17. travel.allwomenstalk. com. Lora Brown saved to St. Patrick’s.

When ceaseless toil has hushed your song of gladness,

And you have grown almost too tired to pray,

Let this truth banish from your heart its sadness,

And ease the burdens of each trying day:

“This, too, shall pass away.”

 

When fortune smiles, and, full of mirth and pleasure,

The days are flitting by without a care,

Lest you should rest with only earthly treasure,

Let these few words their fullest import bear:

“This, too, shall pass away.”

 

When earnest labor brings you fame and glory,

And all earth’s noblest ones upon you smile,

Remember that life’s  longest, grandest story

Fills but a moment in earth’s little while:

“This, too, shall pass away.”

LANTA WILSON SMITH 

 

” I love this poem because it reminds me how temporary

life is on this earth. When swallowed up with darkness, we

forget that the sun will come. When problems seem impossible

to fix, the solution appears right around the corner. When we

get caught up in the negative, it is hard for us to find 

the positive. Nature teaches us that there is a balance.

Life is full of both the good and the bad. Our eyes need to stay

focused on the good and that gives us the courage to hope.”

Trees are a lot like people.

We see them every where.

Some are tall and some are small,

And some are very rare.

 

Trees shelter wildlife from the cold.

Some people give to those in need.

God has a purpose for each thing,

Every embryo and seed.

Found on Nature Addicts on 11-6-18. Taken by Michelle Steenburn. Red, White, and Blue. Also found on Facebook Timeline.

 

Trees face the elements alone                     

 And stand tall in the rain.          

People learn they must endure

And stand despite their pain.

 

Trees do reflect life’s changes

In the budding of a leaf,

The growth that comes in living,

And the loss of leaves in grief.

 

Most people live their whole lives

With changes happening.

They dream of an eternal life

With every coming spring.

 

Both tree and man show moments

Of beauty and pure grace,

Brilliant leaves and shinning deeds

That no one can erase.

 

They know when death comes

To trees and mankind,

Renewal is still possible

For those we leave behind.

Yu/stan/kema
