From Psalm 92:12-13: “The righteous flourish like the palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon. They are planted in the house of the Lord; they flourish in the courts of our God.”
Passing years adding up
Remaining young at heart
Positive outlook leads
God’s love fulfills its part
Morning fills with Scripture
Pursuing and learning
Father’s Word feeds spirit
Faithfulness keeps burning
With each passing moment
Shaping this fragile soul
Father’s handiwork molds
Thankfully in control
God bestows precious love
Sharing His deepest thoughts
Youthful outlook thriving
Grace unties worries’ knots
Righteousness flourishing
Reaping Creator’s love
Always our steady rock
God leads, Heaven above
From 1 Peter 2:1-3: “Rid yourselves, therefore, of all malice, and all guile, insincerity, envy, and all slander. Like newborn infants, long for the pure, spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow into salvation—if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is good.”

Kate, I appreciate your kind words. My faith has grown so much since I retired from teaching over three years ago. Experiencing more time for reading, studying, and writing has fueled this transformation. It has helped me weather family storms back in Montana.
