Being obedient to the truth means that we don’t have to look at others through the distorted lens of our own biases. We can see them as God sees them and love them as He loves them.
From 1 Peter 1:22-23: “Now that you have purified your souls by your obedience to the truth so that you have genuine mutual affection, love one another deeply from the heart. You have been born anew, not of perishable but of imperishable seed, through the living and enduring word of God.”
Predawn countdown
Night shift ending
Morning wakens
Sunrise pending
Tender blossoms
Open to light
Melody plays
New day takes flight
Harmony shines
Dew-covered grass
Nature reflects
Treasured stained glass
Quietness reigns
Early hour waits
Tiny breeze calls
Foreshadowed fate
Scene fills with love
Creation sings
Postcard painted
Blessed heartstrings

The greatest gift you can ever give another person is your own happiness.
It is impossible to control conditions that others have created.
Esther Hicks (born 1948) is an American inspirational speaker and author.
From Psalm 86:5: “For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call on You.”
Life’s dark times gathering
Rolling in, blackest clouds
Walking in strength, with God
Steadfast hope flows unbowed
Troubles waiting ahead
Surrounding voices’ noise
Praying to God above
Steadfast mercy deploys
Stormy seas crashing down
Sailing through darkest days
Feeling safe in God’s hands
Steadfast faith finds His way
Evil setting its trap
Tempting with sinful fate
Trusting God, breaking free
Steadfast goodness checkmates
Alone, feeling afraid
Searching for safest place
Hearing God, calling thee
Steadfast love, full of grace
From Psalm 86:15: “But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.”

Human element
Instinct joins intuition—
Finding solutions
Waiting at crossroads
Game’s intangible knowledge—
Patience now answers
Flipping day’s chessboard
Applying lifetime of moves—
Evading checkmate
