Trust
And he simply said….trust.
Even though you see nothing,
hear nothing,
feel nothing.
I am here!
I have not forgotten you
Or your needs
I am at work……
Wait on me
Be still… and know “I am God”
CS Lewis Quote
I remember Christian teachers telling me long ago that I must hate a bad man’s actions but not hate the bad man: or, as they would say, hate the sin but not the sinner. …I used to think this a silly, straw-splitting distinction: how could you hate what a man did and not hate the man? But years later it occurred to me that there was one man to whom I had been doing this all my life — namely myself. However much I might dislike my own cowardice or conceit or greed, I went on loving myself. There had never been the slightest difficulty about it. In fact the very reason why I hated the things was that I loved the man. Just because I loved myself, I was sorry to find that I was the sort of man who did those things. C. S. Lewis
A Second Look!
Standing at the door as my day began
I took a look downward before errands I ran
A smile burst on my face as I looked at my shoes
For one was brown and one was blue!
So back to the closet laughing out loud,
I went to change before facing the crowd.
The lesson I learned on this eventful day?
A second look never hurts before heading out on your way!
