How is Your Weather?

“How is your weather?”
We often say.
What if we meant,
“How is your day?”

What if we meant,
“How do you feel?
Tell me your story;
Tell me what’s real.”

“Tell me the longing
Deep in your heart,
Your joys and your sorrows —
That would be a good start.”

Longing for sunshine
On a dark, cloudy day?
Longing for peace –
Putting turmoil at bay?

Deep in our hearts,
Only God can fulfill
Our need for His love —
Let Him make your heart still.

Climate Change?

THIS MORNING:

I had a feeling that everything was fine with me: physically, spiritually, emotionally, and financially. It was blissful. Then I woke up! 😅😂🤣

I said to my husband, “Hey, it’s 24 (F) degrees out; not too bad.” He was amazed that I would say that. Actually, if it’s sunny, no wind, and you have the right clothes, that’s true. This ex-San Francisco Bay Area girl has come a long way! 🥶🥶🥶❄️❄️❄️

Fear of the storm

[Have faith, not fear.]

A cloudy day, the sun does rare appear;
It changes moods, exacerbates one’s fears.
A storm shall come; calamitous will be;
All swept away, all lost what once was dear.

And then a break, a crack in grayish wall
Soon widens; blue sky comes out after all.
Until next time, when storm shall truly fall,
Keep hope alive; and pray calamity shall stall.
