We live much of life amid unique choices. Joy is anchored in The One beyond our life.

Perspective
The grayest days become the night
of ev'ry downcast soul.
Each challenge seen becomes a plight
for those with hearts, not whole.

The grayest times become a day
for those with sunshine core.
Each challenge gives us hope and may
lift feet up off the floor.

The viral days of sickness rare
depress the weakest men.
No hope for the future causes care
and Fear, the greatest sin.

The viral days cause the need for a cure,
and stalwart men succeed
to find our health's great victor, sure,
in boldness through each deed.

The fainting hearts see Problem's horde,
and no way to survive.
They look to self and not the Lord.
They lose their strength and drive.

The joy-filled hearts see Problem's few.
They win the day and hour.
Our Lord gives grace. Each day is new
with Mercy for our Power.

The Stone of Christ perspective rules
to make our lives be known.
A crushing Stone displays the fools,
but on It fall as honed.
