Babbling Be loved!


This little brook
beckoned to me
and babbled
be loved!
be loved!
be love!

Jesus says:
"Let the one who believes in me drink.
As the scripture has said,
'Out of the believer's heart
shall flow
rivers of living water.'"
(John 7:38)

Thank You, God, that I know I am beloved by:
*an early morning walk with Little Darlin and Sweetie Pie
*blooming bridal wreath
*a place to pray made ready
*dancing before the torn veil
*restoration resting on a foundation of grace
*reading by candlelight
*Sarah calling
*the girls watching over Margaret
*a sacred space reminder to persevere in relationships
*just the right prayer for my pause, ferns and all!

With gratitude,
Sally

Beloved Beauty


For the beauty of the earth. . .

Lord of all
to Thee we raise
this our hymn
of grateful praise!

God, thank you, that I know I am beloved by:
*two brilliant bluejays saying good morning
*watercolor notecards
*pictures to remember the workshop
*praying the prayer path once again
*pansies overflowing vintage planters
*imagining trees
*thoughts of planting a garden
*a mailbox posted in a bed of snapdragons and such
*a pretty monogrammed Green Bough bag passed on
*gifts given through grief

With gratitude,
Sally
