The Joy in Haiku


Today I join Meri for Share the Joy Thursday.   For I believe we need to find it in my life every day no matter the realities in which we live.  God is Good in so many ways even in times of trial.

Joy comes in many forms.
And this day has the potential of
being just as grand as
as a glowing disc in the West

I must be open to it!
~~~~~~~~~~
The glory of God!
It sets in the western sky
Praise and Thanksgiving!!!

Please visit Rebecca at recuerda mi corazon for Haiku My Heart. There is always more beautiful words  there to enchant and encourage!!! 


~~~^j^~~~
Thanks be to God!!!

Cathy

    Doesn't it just amaze you how many beautiful colors there are in God's paintbox? And how many times you get to say, "This is the most beautiful sunset I've ever seen" ?

    Very nice. When people talk to me about God and Spirit, I rely on Grandfather Sun and Grandmother Moon and the miracle that they create every single day, and the fact they have done so and will continue to do so. That, to me, is God. Steady, unbending, relentless and reliable.

    Peace

    such natural events - sunrise, flower blooms, lightening, etc. - move me spiritually, and have me believing in a power greater than myself...
