ROSES AND THORNS

(These thoughts are added to each new day)

If grieving is caused by what we no longer have, cannot thanksgiving for what we do still have be of help? There is much truth in the words, It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

James Barrie put it this way, “God gave us memories that we (might) have roses in December,”

Do you concentrate upon the roses or are you impaled upon the thorns?

Do you grieve because you have lost your health? Then let me tell you of a minister who weekly conducted a radio program that brought solace and good cheer to many listeners. Few knew that for 14 years he had been bedridden and was blind. Few knew that in his later years his body stiffened and finally froze to such a degree he could not move. All those who listened only knew that they heard messages of hope, words of wisdom, the voice of a radiant spirit that glowed with the eloquence of strength and caring.

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in times of trouble.”
