february light

it’s hazy today

and i lazily stroll

down the path

somewhat subdued

by the tilt of the earth

at this season

the mood of the trees

and their reason

of nakedness

does not winter

diminish us all

does she not 

lay us bare 

too?

Prayer….

Thank you Lord that when we are diminished, we are most in need of your grace.

And that even in february there is light.

Writing this post reminded me of a great old hymn: He Giveth More Grace….I especially like the 2nd stanza:

When we have exhausted our store of endurance,

When our strength has failed ere the day is half done;

When we reach the end of our hoarded resources,

Our Father's full giving is only begun.

James 4:6

He gives more grace. Therefore the Scripture says, "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble."
