The world’s favorite season is the spring. All things seem possible in May.
By observing nature, the best pace is a snail’s pace.

From the words of English preacher, Charles Spurgeon: “God alone can give us songs in the night.”
Landscape’s light seems distant
Worry consumes another heart
Faith’s tattered fabric breathes
Darkness tears life apart
Light’s breath offers mercy
Truth transcends throughout Father’s Word
With each hour, called to trust
Holy Spirit now stirred
Heavens’ cascading light
Thoughts nurtured, turning to prayer
Blessed psalms heard at night
Evidence Father cares
Love shaped by Savior’s light
His promises shall overcome
Valley’s shadow of death
Broken in smallest crumbs
Light’s expansive nature
Abundantly flowing with grace
Blindness lifted away
Faith swells from hope’s embrace
From Mark 5:35-36: “While he was still speaking, some people came from the synagogue leader’s house to say, ‘Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the teacher any further?’ But overhearing what they said, Jesus said to the synagogue leader, ‘Do not be afraid; only believe.'”
Every day will share a portion of mercy’s light along opportunity’s road.

God’s grace sees beyond our deepest need. He meets us where we are, talking straight to us in terms that even we can understand.
From 2 Corinthians 5:17-18: “So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; look, new things have come into being! All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and has given us the ministry of reconciliation.”
Charles Swindoll (born 1934) is an American pastor and Christian author.
Time’s precious moments
Ceaseless in its flow
Like any river
Searching green meadows
Time’s grace spreading out
Meaningful intent
With gentle purpose
Marking life’s ascent
Time’s daily framework
Structured by mankind
Silent trace of peace
Running to unwind
Time’s welcome spirit
Tomorrow designed
Minutes fill each plan
Guiding daily grind
Time’s destiny breathes
Lifetime filled with joy
Patient, calming voice
Sculpting man from boy

Gentle morning rain
Freshening landscape’s spirit—
Reverent stillness
Gentle morning breeze
Rejuvenation’s spirit—
Everlasting peace
Gentle morning light
Infusing nature’s spirit—
Outlook’s warm design
