Morning Prayer Journals; April 8, 2019

Lord, how shall I celebrate a new morning?  Birds are already singing it up a storm out there, rooster is saluting the morn, frogs in the pond are piping and I, the tallest, weightiest of all sit in a silent stupor.  Why is this?  They are so fully invested with YOUR purpose, so without hesitationContinue reading “Morning Prayer Journals; April 8, 2019”
