The relationship

If I asked You for advice and did not take it,would You still tell me whenever I asked You what to do?

Celebration

Mightier is God than the cosmic swirlOf galaxies in motion;Mightier than the swift decayOf atoms in explosion:Mind guides the heavens' boundless whirl—The massive mobile of His skill—Wields Spirit's energies that playIn radiant patterns of His will.

We've been taughtto believeour livesare as delicateas bubbles that rideon the incoming tide.

I love God andGod loves me.

Heaven's home

Home is the heart's song,Love its rhyme and reason;foretaste of heaven's love,wedded to earth's need.
