My basket is full
of everyday things
we take for granted

a refrigerator and freezer
full of food
and a car that gets me
to the store
to buy...yet more

the sun came up
again today
to shine and warm
and smile on me

how "lucky" can I be?

I have my favorite chair
my books, my lamp
my eyes....are there

I can open my mouth
to read
Words of Life

and I have ears to hear

don't you too?

Somedays
Things are just too heavy,
I just need to
climb
into
the Father's arms
...............
I just can't
"adult'
today.

I have this moment

Only one

Help me to embrace it

Fully.

What else are they good for?

Cj 2017 0111

Oh give thanks
unto the Lord
for He is good
and His mercies,
Oh yes
His mercies,
they never fail us
never.
His mercies
they
endure
forever
and ever
and
ever more.

in Me you may have peace
though you may suffer
be courageous
for I
have conquered
the
world.
