Troubles
Like storm clouds
Floating into our lives
Will flow out like river water
Fear not!

(My mom lived in and survived the Great Depression. “This Too Shall Pass” was one of her favorite sayings. It is also becoming one of mine.)
That guy that walks dogs everyday,
Elderly man with head of gray,
Have you ever asked him
How to get to heaven?
The people on the street,
Each one you meet,
All wanted.
Tell them!
—God

This poem was inspired by a quote on my daily calendar “The Grace of Encouragement” by Charles R. Swindoll.
I have had this calendar for many years and it has inspired me over and over.
