Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Seek ye first....

Seek Ye First the Kingdom of God
~ Helen Steiner Rice

Life is a mixture 
of sunshine and rain,
Good things and bad things, 
pleasure and pain.
We can't have all sunshine, 
but it's certainly true
There is never a cloud
the sun doesn't shine through.....
So always remember
that whatever betide you
The power of God
is always beside you,
And if friends disappoint you
and plans go astray
And nothing works out
in just the right way
And you feel you have failed 
in achieving your goal,
And that life wrongly placed you
in an unfitting role,
Take heart and stand tall
and think who you are,
For God is your Father
and no one can bar
Or keep you from reaching
you desired success,
Or withhold the joy
that is yours to possess...
For with God on your side
it matters not who 
Is working to keep
life's good things from you,
For you need nothing more
than God's guidance and love
To insure you the things
that you're most worthy of...
So trust in His wisdom
and follow His ways,
And be not concerned
with the world's empty praise,
But seek first His Kingdom
and you will possess
The world's greatest riches
which is true happiness.

Matthew 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness;
and all these things shall be added to you.

A Blessed Sunday to you.
Jesus Loves You.

So true. Sometimes no is the best answer to a prayer. Sometimes that no is protection. Sometimes things not working out the way you want is a blessing. God is trustworthy.
