JOY COMETH IN THE MORNING

Another world Another view Someday I'll see,
"Twill all be new.

When I awake,
My eyes will feast On beauty that
Shall never cease.

Beyond compare,
My eyes behold
What to our hearts
God's Word has told.

This earthly view
Shall disappear
When I awake
In heaven's sphere.

A different world
That day I'll find;
A different body,
A different mind.

One day the same
Shall always be,
My Savior's
Precious love for me.

~ Helen Gleason

I HOPE LIFE TREATS YOU KINDLY

I hope life treats you kindly
throughout all your earthly days,
And the sun is warm and bright,
As you journey on your way.
May you find true happiness,
Contentment and peace of mind,
By treasuring life's blessings,
Leaving its sorrows behind.
May you look ahead with hope
to the joy God has prepared,
And know that He is with you,
Both always and everywhere.

~ Steven Michael Schumacher

May I offer what I cannot see
Over offers of worldly gain,
And therein meet the victory,
And Heaven's joy attain.
~Norma Woodbridge

"Can anything separate us from the love Jesus Christ has for us?
Can troubles or problems or sufferings or hunger or nakedness or danger or violent death?...
Yes, I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels, nor ruling spirits, nothing now, nothing in the future, no powers, nothing above us, nothing below us, nor anything else in the whole world will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." ~ Romans 8: 35, 38, 39
On the back cover of Max Lucado's Book IN THE GRIP OF GRACE

"Once they have been stripped of all secretiveness, they provide answers. Life is not a secret and neither is death. God does not hide his word or his world from people. people themselves throughout history have brought about a separation between God and mankind, spiritually and beliefs. But there is no difference. All is one. There is no without and within, no above and below. All was created from the same breath. All that lives, has ever lived, and will one day live, originates from the light."
