Thanks ... giving

1 Timothy 1:12 New English Translation (NET Bible)

¹² I am grateful to the one who has strengthened me,

Christ Jesus our Lord, because he considered me faithful in putting me into ministry …

Thanks ... giving

What is life now offering?

What has it in store?

How to probe the depths of it         

and how to love it more?

How it paints the vapors

of expectations with light strokes?

Like opportunities and happiness

as on life’s clouds you float.

Dreams moving gently in the sun

whispering softly as you move.

Oh! How beauty just surrounds us

presenting all things to prove

that as you stare into the wind

and strain your comprehension.

You know the best in life is free

if you pay “Life” some attention.
