Not like you...

Verse...  "He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler."  Psalm 91:4




Thought for today...  What happens to good people when bad things happen to them?  They become better people.  (Robert Schuller)





Song/video...  This is a great new song I just found today.  I hope you all enjoy it.  I think it applies to us! 



Poem...

Not Like You


by Sheri Hess



I am a mother, though not like you.

You cradle your sweet baby in your arms,

Mine are empty, but I hold him in my heart.

You brush her soft curly hair,

and tie pretty pink bows just right.

A lock of his hair is tucked neatly in a book

You pick daisies and tie them in a chain

to wear around her neck

I cut lilacs and arrange them in a vase to set at his grave.

You look forward to dreams and plans.

I hold on to memories.

I am a mother,

though not like you.



In Memory of Dakota Rain Hess
