It’s that time again….

If we could see beyond today
As God can see,
If all the clouds should roll away,
The shadows flee;
O’er present grief’s we would not fret,
Each sorrow we would soon forget,
For many joys are waiting yet
For you and me.

 

If we could know beyond today
As God doth know,
Why dearest treasures pass away,
And tears must flow;
And why the darkness leads to light,
Why dreary days will soon grow bright,
Some day life’s wrong will be made right,
Faith tells us so.

 

If we could see, if we could know
We often say,
But God in love a veil doth throw
Across our way.
We cannot see what lies before,
And so we cling to Him the more,
He leads us till this life is o’er,
Trust and obey.
–Norman J. Clayton

I got this from Boo, I’m not sure if it was on her blog or she sent it to me, but either way it’s beautiful and I’m holding on to the promises in it.

For all the work behind the scenes
For all the tears that no one sees
For all the dreams you’ve set aside
For all the times you bravely tried

For every hurt that you forgive
For every love you’re asked to give
For every alter of sacrifice
For every time you paid the price

For every weary, courageous smile
For every daunting, fiery trial
For every broken piece of heart
For every time you fell apart

For all these things He will repay
For it is said God works this way
That every time you yield your all
And endure the pain, great and small
That in return you’re doubly blessed
For you forsook what you cherished best

–Boo

“Start by doing what’s necessary, then what’s possible and suddenly you are doing the impossible.”

Saint Francis of Assisi

In each heart there is an especially tender, sensitive sore spot–a place in the heart where trials are more difficult and painful to bear than any others. This is a place where I enter, where I work as the Potter molding the clay, and where I allow My most trusted children to be tested and sorely tried. For if in spite of the great difficulty and battle, one of My soldiers can still yield even that part of his heart which he holds most dearly and which is most sensitive of all; if he can accept that I test and squeeze and even break and shatter it, then I know that he is indeed of the caliber that I need in My avant-garde troops

Read this today on Hope Always and thought it was so fitting, to what I’m going through right now. Pray for me, yes?

I’ll pray for you, I promise.

Nothing is Impossible, Amen?

It takes a long time to get good and many people say they want to get good. However, most people don’t want that. Most people want the “good”. The people that get to the top, what they really want is the “work” to get good. To do a lot of work, over a long time… that takes Motivation. Motivation is a habit; success is a habit.
