    Creation treated me to two small wonders on today’s woods wander.

    Six thousand feet ft. high among the Great Smoky Mountain cathedrals the immense magnificence of my Father’s canvases serenely consumed my infinitesimal smallness.                                 “O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is Your name in all the earth”. – Psalm 8:9

    Tears of joy, and those of sorrow We know not which will fall tomorrow Raindrops upon a flower’s bloom Prompts dismissing teardrops’ gloom Our tears of grief, and those of loss Were all once shed upon a Cross He knows our grief, our pain and sorrow And saves each one to dry tomorrow “You know…
