With grateful hearts and no one to thank

Christina Georgina Rossetti

Were there no God, we would
be in this glorious world
with grateful hearts
and no one to thank!

Quote of the Day

Let each one be receptive to the
Spirit that inspires
Allowing the will to respond
with action;
And may all judgments and denials
Be released
That our souls are freed to
Serve the Light with joy!
Thus will we recognize oneness with
The Divine Spark dwelling
Within our hearts,
Fanning it to illuminate the way.
~ Nan Merrill from her interpretation of Psalm 144 in PSALMS FOR PRAYING
