Fruit

"But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace,

patience, kindness, goodness,

faithfulness, gentleness, self-control;

against such things there is no law."

Galatians 5:22-23

"It is more important to be kind

than to be right."

Thursday's Sunrise

Sunrise, 10-11-12

Morning has broken, like the first morning

Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird

Praise for the singing, praise for the morning

Praise for them springing fresh from the Word.

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven

Like the first dewfall, on the first grass

Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden

Sprung in completeness where His feet pass.

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning

Born of the one light, Eden saw play

Praise with elation, praise every morning

God's recreation of the new day.

Eleanor Farjeon, 1931

"Because of the Lord's great love, we are not consumed.

For his compassions never fail.

They are new every morning.

Great is your faithfulness"

Lamentations 3:22-23

His Eye Is On The Sparrow

male house sparrow, from my kitchen window

Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies?
Yet not one of them is forgotten by God.
Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
Luke 12:6-7; Matthew 10:29-31

~~~~~~~~~~~

I sing because I'm happy, I sing because I'm free.
For his eye is on the sparrow, and I know he watches me.
Civilla D. Martin, 1905
