Gord, catching up today. While I was happy to see your name, I'm terribly sorry to see your name on here. I have cut back to maybe logging on 2x a month to catch up with people.
All we have control of is our relationship with God and our own attitude. Keeping a PMA is tough when we see those we care about struggle, but know that God is working in the background even when we cannot see any changes.
You are an amazing husband and father...keep up the good fight.
I will continue to keep you in my daily prayers!
God bless my brother!!!
Looking for SBJ on Father's Day but his thread is shut down so I will post a poem for him here in case he ever comes along to check. Thinking of you today and hoping you are well and staying close to God. Much love to you from me, and a poem just for you.
In the High Country by David St. John
Some days I am happy to be no one The shifting grasses
In the May winds are miraculous enough As they ripple through the meadow of lupine
The field as iridescent as a Renaissance heaven & do you see that boy with his arms raised
Like one of Raphael’s angels held within This hush & this pause & the sky’s lapis expanse?
That boy is my son & I am his only father Even when I am no one
I believe I will see the bounty of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord with courage. Be stouthearted, and wait for the Lord.
