heats on

Seems like summer
heat is rising
running in the morning
seems the best time.
cool not cold, sweat runs down
Lord give me strength.
as I carry the weight.
Lord give me grace
as I plow the earth.
He is the sustainer of all.

stretched and counting

Each day there is a challenge.
We need to know how to get up right.
When we fall and we will fall.
But we need the wisdom of God to know how to get up right.
Lord, show me how to walk , in step with you.
give me ears to hear your voice.
show me how to say yes, continually.
challenge today, truth, repentance and transparency.
so be it.

Music

Amazing how music can sooth the soul.
gracious guitar.
Audacious adoration.
the warming sun penetrates the sky
we'll be in summer soon.
Fragrances flow: spring blossoms, lilac still blooms
dogwood too.
Iris splashing color throughout the neighborhood.
music of sound and sight and smell.
Ring, sing, celebrate.

Windblown

In the valley, it's windy and almost everything not nailed down has moved.
Found my porch chairs in a heap.
cover blown off of the 72 Triumph motorcycle.
Wind can be good, or...
depends on what your trying to hide or cover or do.
Wind can breath new life into your circumstances.
Wind can terrorize you.
There is 'breeze' and 'hurricane"!
Now matter what good can come from a good blow.
depends on how you respond and how you let it affect you.
Blow wind, blow.
