Do not calculate the length of time you have spent in the company of the Lord's Name, and exult. Calculate rather the length of time you have wasted, away from that contact, and repent. Have that Name ever in your thoughts and you can brave any calamity.
Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba
...............................................................................................
A suspended silence permeates the slumbering forest
as I tread my way cautiously across the sphagnum moss terrain
careful not to disturb or alarm any resident creatures within my scope
coinciding my feelings with the innate harmony of the still wood
listening intently for the subtle promptings of my heart
which never fails to keep my thoughts and actions both pure and intrinsic
a red squirrel appears suddenly, skipping effortlessly across the overhead branches
teaching me that to be natural and spontaneous is the vital key
as shards of golden sunshine fragmented diffusion on the leaves
all around the brilliant phlox and foxgloves, provided a welcome spree to the eye
just then a dog fox came prowling, sniffing assiduously the downwind breeze
he didn't even notice me, as I stood stock still against a birch tree
blending into my environment, with no sudden movement or noise
heaven's gates opened up for me, while I whispered your name in grace
I am a man who leads from the front, multi faceted in my ways
and when I give my heart away, you can be sure that destiny has moved
for when I reached the fork in the trail
I heard your voice say,.... I agree

you always show your true soul self to your readers.. This is stunning…The gift of imagery falls in the gifts of high knowledge in the fruits of the spirit.. It simply is stunning. When we all can come to the place where our Lord Jehovah and us rein, we are gathered and guided into all kinds of rays of healing, deliverance, agape and special knowledge through the prophetic anointing.. Masterpiece! THANK YOU ANGEL!
Peace & Love, Dove

Every man...needs a woman...to back him 100%...even while invisible, at his side.
It surely sounds like you have found yours! No wonder, you write such Excellent Poetry, and provide such enchanting photography....
Congratulations, on whatever mutual decision[s] you may have come to!
Makes me think of the scripture: "How can two walk together - except, they be of one accord."
Conversely, many couples walk at the same place, at the same pace, and at the same time...yet are completely... out of sync.
Well done! love & prayers Rhonda
