It’s Friday, but Sunday is coming

It’s Friday but Sunday’s Coming

By Carol Grace

It is in the darkest of the

midnight that we truly need

the light, something

that we can use to find our

way, to lead us forward into

a day where we are free of trouble, free

of woes, after we are dealt yet

another of life’s blows, what

can we do, where can we turn

when we have no choice

in the events that churn

about us, leaving us heartsick

and dejected, what can be done

after we have objected to

life spinning out of control,

leaving only chaos and despair,

to whom can we go?

When the free will God gave us

is no longer free, but bends

to the will of others, where does

that leave you and me?

It’s Friday, but Sunday is coming is

the simple refrain, that keeps rolling

over and over in my brain, so I grasp

tightly this hope, that tomorrow will be

brighter and happier if we only believe,

that God is the Author and Finisher of our

faith, that this, too, shall pass, this

heartache will eventually abate.

It’s Friday, but Sunday is coming.

Ps 118 Today is the day the Lord has made; rejoice in it and be glad.

Hi all,

I am starting a new blog today to chronicle my ongoing journey toward holiness.  In Lev 19:2 God told Israel that just as He is holy, He expects His children to be holy.  Now, for those of you who, like me, are clearly aware of their imperfections, a call to holiness may seem daunting.  But I have found God never calls us to do something without giving us the means through which to attain it.  Therefore, I continue each day to seek holiness and invite you to journey with me.

I will include scripture, articles, poetry and even music to provide stepping stones as we walk this holiness pathway.  I look forward to your comments.

In Christ,

Hello fellow Christians,

In this age of uncertainty, few things remain stable and never-changing.  One thing is certain–God has given us a model which we are to follow, and that model is Jesus Christ, who said we have two laws that supersede all other laws.  We are to love God and to love our neighbors as ourselves.  As the old hymn “The Solid Rock” goes, our hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ love and righteousness.  Let us join together to encourage each other  so that the body of Jesus Christ will be as strong as the solid rock upon which it is built.
