Kim Rodrigues Poet Tanka

Grace

...give thanks
IN ALL circumstances,
for this is God’s will for you
in Christ Jesus

1 Thessalonians 5:18 (NIV)

GRACE

resplendent yellow
overwhelms the daffodils
the sunflowers stretch
pursuing the light of life
giving thanks in everything

6/26/2020

*We are NOT told to give thanks FOR all circumstances but IN all. 

Romans 8:28 says: ...IN ALL THINGS God works for the good of those
who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. (NIV)
