Marriage
This morning when I walked, the air was so cold, and rain was trying to fall, the way ahead seemed so dismal and long, and I didn't want to be there at all.
So instead I imagined it was the beach in summertime, and the occasional raindrop that wet my cheek was really part of a tiny wave, kicked up by my bare feet.
I imagined I could feel the sun, wrapping me in a silver blanket of light, and I could run for miles along the edge of the sea, like a bird that could not yet take flight.
The picture I painted worked for a while, the cold and damp faded away, and instead of cars, I heard the sound of the waves, it all made for a glorious day.
And it made me think that days all could be like this, full of joy and warmth and delight, for it really is a decision I make every day, when I first see the morning light.
I can choose to be gloomy, pulled down and dark, thinking nothing is going my way, or I can choose to see God's hand in the worst of times, blessing me all through the day.
It may be cold outside, and the day stretches ahead, holding too many things to
do, but this is the best time of all to remember, how rich I am, for my dreams have come true.
My blessings are so many, like sand on the shore, they stretch out as far as the eye can see; for I follow the One who made it all, who gave me life, made me
over, set me free.
Each morning I thank God for all the things I have, for the joys each day that are renewed, for each day is a wonder of love and delight, for I know I will be spending it with you!
