Among Other Ordinary Days

I choose Sunday as my leisure day, and very glad to have accomplished much in forty hours: I look at the Heavens and pray... to delight in this blessed day among other ordinary days. If we all set apart a day to worship Him, more blessings would be showered on us... think of all his wonderfully kept promises that inspired David to write Psalms for Him! I've seen sickness, desperation, unhappiness and poverty flourish in wretched souls that have given up on faith, why have they chosen to live hopelessly and allow misery? Have they ever sought God instead of indulging in mirth? Many of us may not be spiritual persons, or the ones with diseases, but putting one day aside for reflection can mend our ways... forget how to get rich and dream of sailing the high seas, choose a special day among other ordinary days! Entered in Frank Herrera's contest, " One Stand Out Day " written by Andrew Crisci

I know you celebrate the Lord's day, Andrew. May others be guided by this poem. With God's help, we flourish. Without it, we fail. Beautifully written entry for Frank's contest! Winning wishes for you, my friend. Love, Carolyn
