Morning Ritual

The few hours of darkness of the night was gone
Leaving the area drench in light. 
A new morning, a new beginning
a spiritually nourishing morning.
Morning cleansing, pray and muse on Thy light.

 
(Morning Prayer) In the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit I thank you, Lord, for having preserved me during the night. I will begin this day pleasing You In everything I do accordance to Your will.
Time to move take the dog for a brisk walk. Pause and soak in the beauty that is right before me. I'm a child of God, an honor to be in His flock. 12/24/2017 John 8:12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." Poetry Contest: MORNING RITUAL Sponsored by: Line Gauthier
