THIS IS THE DAY, THAT THE LORD HAS MADE. REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT.
THE SPACE BETWEEN YESTERDAY AND TODAY IS FILLED WITH ACCEPTANCE, FORGIVENESS, AND REMEMBERING TO LAUGH.
When you accept the fact that sometimes seasons are dry
and times are hard and that God is in control of both...
you will discover a sense of divine refuge,
because the hope then, is in God.
REMEMBER OUR VETERANS,
PAST ~ PRESENT AND FUTURE,
THANK THEM FOR THEIR SERVICE
AND THEIR SACRIFICES
"THE MOON GIVES YOU LIGHT
THE BUGLES AND THE DRUMS GIVE YOU MUSIC
AND MY HEART, O MY SOLDIERS
MY VETERANS
MY HEART GIVES YOU LOVE."
~ Walt Whitman ~
A SOLDIER'S QUOTE:
You've never lived until you've almost died,
for those who fought for it,
life has a flavor the protected will never know.
-Anon., from Viet Nam, 1968

Sings Our National Anthem"

"AND GOD SHALL WIPE AWAY EVERY TEAR FROM THEIR EYES, THERE SHALL BE NO MORE DEATH, NOR SORROW, NOR CRYING, THERE SHALL BE NO MORE PAIN. FOR THE FORMER THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY." ~ Revelations 21:4 ~

When you accept the fact that sometimes
seasons are dry and times are hard and
that God is in control of both...
you will discover a sense of divine refuge,
because the hope then, is in God and
not in yourself.

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart
and try to love the questions themselves...
Do not seek the answers, that cannot be given to you...
Because you would not be able to live them...
And the point is...
To live Everything...
Live the questions now...
Perhaps you will then gradually,
without noticing it...
Live along to some distant day...
Into the answers.
--Ranier Maria Rilke--
