Answered Prayers
Take Flight
You give and they take,
Their hunger and thirst to slake,
Their affections fake.
—-
You’re worth so much more.
Come out from the shore, in wave
after wave , explore.
—
You’re not lost, my friend.
You’re found. Step out of the boat.
I’ll make you brave.
Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; When I fall, I will arise; When I sit in darkness, The Lord will be a light to me.”
Micah 7:8
NKJV

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.
