Marriage
I stepped outside into a fresh morning
glistening with raindrops and dew,
my heart overflowed with joy and peace
that this new day would be spent with you!
I thought about the birds playing in the water,
beaks and wings splashing it high,
all in such exuberance that this new day
they'd be washed in God's grace before they fly.
That is the joy I feel each morning
when I wake to a fresh new day,
knowing that blessings are strewn all about
for me to pick up and take on my way.
Such a wonder to see this day's path
not knowing what is beyond the next bend;
but knowing that walking along it together
is joy and peace without end!
Every day I look for adventure,
not grand events in which to take part,
for the journey that mean the most to me
are the ones I take in my heart.
They are always short, they all lead the same way,
they bring me always to the same place,
where I praise and adore the God who saved me,
and love the husband He gave me in His infinite grace.
How can I thank Jesus ever enough?
What words can I say, what else can I do?
I simply put Him first, Jesus, King of my life,
and all the rest I spend loving you!!

In my life, Trish, I've discovered the truth these words impart. Sometimes the peace comes with ease. Other times, when the storms swamp my boat, if the anchor weren't holding tightly to this little vessel, I forget that peace is available, His Peace. But it's always there ... offered freely. I may hesitate, at times, to accept the offering ... but truly, there is indeed joy and peace without end.
Thank you for your sweet, sweet reminder of the blessings always ours, in Him.
