This what I was going to post this morning :-
WHEN A LEAF (LIFE) DIES
Leaf falling
Life stalling
Wound heals
Others pass by
And only you are left
To wither and die
But
The Lord had me go through my posts and place this before you again (from March this year)
Now there are two to read … sadness, self-pity, perceived reality … watching as others live life without you
and … pure blessedness of reality, the truth of reality … thankful to be alive and a child of the living God … a God who supplies all of my needs in Christ Jesus
I, by faith opt for the second one
Have a beautiful day and may the Lord meet all of your needs for yourself and your loved ones in Christ Jesus
SWEET NOTES OF THANKFULNESS

Shining into the darkness of despair
My precious Lord shines His light with care
Shining hope into darkest recess
Love more brilliant, hopelessness less
** ** **
A gift of eternal healing blest
And nothing could ever compare with the best
The only One, Eternal Love
Beautifully offered from heaven above
** ** **
Never fear leaving the darkness behind
Never fear stepping into the light, so tenderly kind
Love will protect you, each purposeful footprint
Don’t look back, take His hand, His nailprint
** ** **
Yes, the nailprint with your name adoringly engraved
Protected from harm, Yet in agony He saved
Saved you from that darkness of dark bondage
Has given you freedom, you’re released from the cage
** ** **
So lift your freed voice, lift praises high
May the sweet notes of thankfulness drift into the sky
For He once drew a last breath, drawn for pre-loved future kin
And covered us humbly, beautifully ……. all who believe in

There’s a little ant upon the waiting rosebud
Creation in its glory … the wonders of life
