AFFIRMATION

Gray mornings may have us depressed

Rough inner edges have to be smoothed

I think about this and reflect on life

While waiting in my pew before worship

Rain causes some to arrive late

They are here now being respectful

Just a mid-autumn Sunday

Late in the season of life

Happiness and sadness are intertwined

Today’s message is uplifting and sober

The Holy Spirit is with us

The congregation sings robustly

Sun shines through the stained glass windows

Somewhere there is a rainbow

Hearts are lightened

Angels rejoice
