You and me against the world:
My Father,
Over the years as I have heard this phrase and the subsequent song, I have always related it to my love for my son. Today,
however, I see it in a different light. It is only You that I need by my side as I navigate this life You have blessed me with.
The world is not always kind, loving and forgiving, but You are. I thank You Father for being a rock and a stabilizing
force in my life. I am comforted by thoughts of how You fill my heart with love and light. I thank You for my son who
blesses my soul with his kindness and consideration. He truly is a gift from You.
It is my prayer Father that we greet each day with a sense of joy and thanksgiving, knowing that it too is a gift from You.
You are such a masterful and awesome God. I am emotionally overwhelmed as I think of the vastness and diversity of
this world You have created. You have been so generous that we take it for granted. We are like little children in a candy
store....more, more, more!
Sandy Walker,
Publisher
I live each day fully aware that the rising of the sun is a wonderfully blessed experience that only You can gift to me.
It is a simple thing and yet one of the most powerful expressions of Your might. The sun will rise tomorrow and it will
be You and me against the world. -- AMEN
