Good Morning, God Morning, Or Groan-Moan

I
As some on God's good Earth
Arise at a new dawn, I'm grateful
Even to talk with friends I haven't met
Joe called them "myself," & on the internet

II
I say God Morning, for so many reasons
One: God adds another 'o' to make GOOD
I say Our Father (Holy is Thy name) prayer
Two: Start positive! Prefer mood of gratitude

III
In ones sixties, one oft gets up in pain
I thank my Savior, its but a little cross
I bear nothing compared to His! I gain
What Adam lost: If I pray, I won't complain
 (Maybe just one of each, later, a moan & a groan!)

Perfect! A Fav., from me/myself. There is power in words...especially names. To say Jesus with love is to form a spiritual connection. To have a spiritual connection with Christ is to have power, and dominion over self and one's environment. To have power and dominion does not mean to rule...but, in fact, to nurture and serve, for the environment loves back...it is Mother's blessed nature. God's Father/Mother spirit expressing outright, consciously in creation.

"I thank my Savior, its but a little cross I bear nothing compared to His"! Yes, compared to the weight of the cross He carried, ours is nothing, but still weighs heavy on our shoulders, at times

It's balance ( fairness and a tad of self-pity) but the bigger picture is a humble necessity for us SUS VG
