God never calls us to be successful. He calls us to be faithful.
From Romans 1:16-17: “For I am not ashamed of the gospel; it is God’s saving power for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed through faith for faith, as it is written, ‘The one who is righteous will live by faith.'”

Spring’s foretold migration finally arrives
Chasing away winter’s doldrums at long last
Growing longer, warmer days feeling alive
Returning daily, headliners rejoin cast
With every sunrise tweet, delightful birds sing
Updating winter’s drab wardrobe, trees turn green
Following God’s cue, all creatures here below
Coloring landscape, sweetness paints every scene
Patient gardens blooming, flowers smile again
Waking up from long winter naps, creatures roam
Setting life’s tone, creation’s quiet rhythm
Living in harmony, all feel quite at home
Spring’s joyful feast, nature’s symphony humming
Welcoming fanfare’s savory homecoming

People will believe anything if you whisper it.
Optimism is when a tea kettle can be up to its neck in hot water and still sing.
From Colossians 3:12: “Therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.”
With every sunrise
Heart filling with grace
Overflowing love
From heavenly place
Freed of darkest clouds
Light removes blindness
Beginning at home
Power of kindness
Father’s chosen ones
Mercy stirs inside
Clothed with humbleness
Joyful, lasting ride
New life takes over
Love leads our labors
Voices singing psalms
Forgive each neighbor
Peace of Christ shall lead
“Golden Rule” thrives
Called as one Body
Compassion arrives
From Colossians 3:17: “And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.”
