Day: December 13, 2021

No new snow, but lots of sunshine.

My work today is in God’s hands.

There are things to do, but nothing

Critical except staying close to Jesus

And trusting in Him.  I always want to

keep his presence near and call out His name.

my relationship with Him is important, but

so often it is easy to forget.  I pray that

I remember every minute.  This year

will soon end and God willing we will

all have new challenges in the year to come. 

By holding his hand we will make it through.

Reality is proving tough, so

Fantasy comes into play

Many little hurts and compromises

In la-la land can be hid away

The remembering when and other hard-line facts

Discovered and put to use for a day

We can cover it up; have a good excuse

Never thinking of the harm that is done

Living in this secret way and then

Taking the time needed to recover

You wonder if it is worth all the playacting

When we seek the truth we have support

Game-playing should be a last resort

Tomorrow will bring a new sunny day

Then yesterday will be blown away

All is forgiven in dreamland

Just the failure of a new episode

I know the road I should walk now

Won’t have to be told

Spring is coming; bells will be ringing

Keeping toll of those who are wise

Someday I’ll be included, once

I separate the truth from the lies
