To be to happen or to do
Hope for good upon each day
Achievable desirable
Possibilities before us
Shall we believe
That in all God is able?
Though sometimes things
Seem undone… impossible
Be still and know in quietness
Helping, loving, and persisting
Positivity makes a difference
Strength for better
Possible
From “My Words to Live By”
Charlotte-Anne Allen
The journey was long
And the way was hard
Over steep rocky places
And mountainous trails
… Now he’s here!
Tired out and hungry
We patiently went
Trying not to be anxious
Though thirsty and hot
… He’s here!
In uncertain times
Will there be a home
What about my loved ones
How will we survive
… But he’s here!
Missing my family
So far far away
How I long to be near them
And share the good news
… That he’s here!
Home safe and sheltered
Though not what I thought
Only a few visitors
To brighten the hours
… And welcome him here!
Look to the future
One day at a time
Be strong there’s tomorrow
Hear Mary’s good news
… for Jesus is here!
