I was in a Pollyanna mood as I drove Down the street to my friend's house. My spirit was bright just like the sun beams Penetrating my car windows causing me To squint. I looked forward to food and Fellowship with soul mates. I couldn't help but say it out loud, "Thank You, Jesus!" But suddenly my mind returned to the Prayer requests I had heard that morning on The prayer chain: The husband with depression, The young gal with cancer, The mom with severe migraines. I put my happy thoughts on pause. I remembered my hurting friends. I ached with them. I prayed that God would give them Hope to face their dark day, And then I proceeded to thank Him again for My bright one. |
