Endless Joy

We all have a beginning

We all have a middle

We all have an end~

but an end that never ends

In Him.

As we are awaiting the birth of our second grandchild,

seeing the glow on our daughter's face

as a life is growing inside of her,

the anticipation is great

as we await

the miracle of

birth.

Tears fill my eyes as I think of

the joy that this baby will bring,

from its' first cry as it enters this world.

And then

I think of my

precious mother-in-law

who gave birth to my husband

and the joy on her face as she looked into his eyes

for the very first time.

And now

we look into her eyes

wondering if

she sees us or know us.

And then we

Look Up

Because we have to

Because He tells us to

so

He can wipe our tears

and fill our hearts

with more of

Him

so that

His Joy

will fill our hearts

through the not so joyful parts of life.

His Peace

that guards our hearts~

that fills us

with

His Hope

beyond what our eyes can see

beyond what our hearts feel

because

only

In Him

is where

life begins

and never ends~

"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you.

Not as the world gives do I give to you.

Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid." John 14:27

Thank You

Jesus

for taking us

From Rags to Riches
