23rd Psalm

The Lord is my Shepherd;

I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;

He restoreth my soul;

He leadeth me in the paths

Of righteousness for His name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the

shadow of death,

I will fear no evil;

For Thou art with me.

Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me

In the presence of mine enemies;

Thou anointest my head with oil,

My cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

All the days of my life;

And I will dwell in the house

of the Lord

Forever.

REMEMBER

Mom, remember the day you gave birth to me

Can you recall the first footsteps

that set me free?

Think back when I came to you

with tears in my eyes

You kissed them away with loving goodbyes.

Stand up to the plate and swing is what you would say

Follow the ball with your eyes and keep it in play

I would quietly hand you a good report card

Your proud smile greeted me

for I had worked very hard

You were in the crowd on that graduating day of school

The unconditional love

and acceptance was always the rule

Recall the time I told you how I loved that girl

You put on a brave face

as my adulthood began to unfurl

Hey Mom, you are going to be a grandmother

Now you can give your love and caring to a little other

The day arrived

when Bill was no longer in your life

That made no difference for you would always be his wife

This chalkboard of memories is slowly being erased

The frustration quickly mounts

for I see it in your face

Remember may be a word not used in the years to come

I can only hope

you remember me always as your son

1 Corinthians 13: 4-13

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
