I awoke to the softest dark,
and the fresh pre-dawn air,
and rejoiced that Sunday had come again,
a day of praise and prayer.
This day the Lord has made,
perfect in every way,
and I am already rich beyond words,
thank Him with all I do and say.
Thank Him for rescuing me,
for making me brand new,
but most of all for the gift of love,
that is mine because of you!
A gift given anew each day,
one that fills my heart,
this will be special from beginning to end,
because in all you will be a part.
I unwrap the gift with joy,
my happiness deep and true,
for the gift of time in which to say
how very much I LOVE YOU!!!

Trish, your words, almost full of gentle grace and sweetness were the perfect way to begin my morning. You said it best:
awoke to the softest dark,
and the fresh pre-dawn air,
and rejoiced that Sunday had come again,
a day of praise and prayer.
May this be my thought every morning ... a recognition that the Father's love has gifted me yet another day to fill with praise and prayer ... the only gifts I can give Him.
May you know, Trish, his richest blessings today ... you and your sweet family.
