Poetry is a great way to bring them back, at least for a little while as you read. Blessings to you on this day and always!

I won't go into the tediously boring details, but suffice it to say that just yesterday I found myself confessing my resentment/grumbling. Funny how easily the flesh submits to such. I'm just glad I didn't bonk anyone.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Kathleen https://www.blogger.com/profile/05245926913888212148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569182682068612485.post-88824293087582376182013-10-23T17:40:51.794-07:002013-10-23T17:40:51.794-07:00This, my dear heart, is a wonderful post.

God loves the cheerful, but thank goodness he doesn't ignore the whiner in me.<br /><br />I love your morning focus, because if you think things are bad, that's what you are going to see. You're looking for it! So much better to see the lovely in the world!<br /><br />Nice to meet you!<br />CeilCeilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06293917798735764739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569182682068612485.post-2656666245129209712013-10-23T11:55:13.741-07:002013-10-23T11:55:13.741-07:00well, i would feel better if i knew what

My grandsons told me the other day that they are no longer allowed to watch the children's show, "Calliou", because he whines all the time and they are not allowed to whine. I thought to myself when I heard that, "that God doesn't allow it either". Such a special reminder in a loving way, Sonja.

His face literally glows with the love of the Lord. We were recalling how he seems to always be able to cheer us up and looks on the bright side of life all the time. I want to be more like him and never give in to complaining. <br />Blessings, Sonja!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10888547092318964711noreply@blogger.com
