As I type this post, the May garden grows and begins to look towards June. Today is sunny. We enjoy our old house, and are grateful every day. Good to have goals, and goals can be revised as needed. Memorial Day Weekend, 2023.

PRAYER
I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.
Psalm 18: 1
Bible on my shelf
a ribbon holds my place
in the Psalms
older now
used books settle
in their new home
new space
on a few shelves

I love the LORD,
because he hath heard
my voice and
my supplications.
Psalm 116: 1
That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving,
and tell of all thy wondrous works.
Psalm 26: 7
far from perfect
and in need of grace
we found our way
to unconditional love
