The Rue

 Singing old hymns  Drinking coffee  And praying  Joy returns  To this heart Soon

 As I walk Up that Steep hill I’m reminded that  If it We’re easy It wouldn’t  Mean much  At completion 

 Learning  Is a  Painful  But necessary  Exercise  These days I want  To run And God says Sit And be Still

 Sometimes  The best lessons  Are the  Hardest  To learn 

 Lord Guide me  Into righteousness Not jealous  Envy and rage 

 Praying  That my  Body continues  To hold And flourish 

 What is making you smile? Any prayer requests? Any praises? Sending positive energy your way.  Love you all. 

 Love starts Where you  Begin Because You  Are love  In action  Every day  And forevermore  Love like yours Is a gift  I don’t ever  Want to relinquish 

 Focus on You Not the world  Your Word  Is my guide Nothing else Loves rules When You reign

 Love and mercy  Two traits  I’d like  More of These days  When I’m  Certifiably exhausted  And without patience 

 Lord Keep me Still  And silent So I Can keep Your precepts

 Phone left At home  Savoring the  Sights and sounds  Of the  Great outdoors  Without digital  Interruption And temptation 

 Seek your face Read your work Clear my mind Of any  And all Distraction

 God is redeeming  This too I doubted And yet  He delivers Once again
