My Hope lies not in any man
My Love comes from the Greatest Love
My Peace lies in the silence of His magesty...
My Heart awaits the day in which it will be made whole
My Will has been surrendered
My Pain no longer self-inflicted
My Life has been laid down before the One who gave His life for me
My Fear of the unknown has become...
My Joy in the adventure
My Prayer does not cease ... to amaze me in His answering
My Hope ... lies in the eternal Mercy and Grace of God.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Valentine's Day this year was a day of pure joy for me. It wasn't necessarily a conscious decision ... but it was wonderful. I could have cared less that I was yet again single. None of that mattered. I didn't feel lonely. Didn't feel sorry for myself ... It was almost as if I could feel God's love all around me. I could see it in the kindness of strangers and friends. I felt it in the usual way from my family. I witnessed it in a family who had just adopted a baby ... and allowed me to join in the celebration. It was a beautiful day.
Love is all around, obviously in varying degrees, but if you let yourself soak it all in ... it's something that I try to do every day. When you feel this way ... who cares about being single?!?

And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
I John 4:16 (KJV)
