Awaiting the Transfiguration...

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.Micah 6:8 Far fairer than the beauty of the bloom that steals the show...(The hardy hollyhock steals the show in November 💗) The sunrise as it fills east-skies with color-feasts unfurled The solace of the countryside in twilight's afterglow Far fairer than the beauty of the bloom that steals the showThe sunrise as it fills east-skies with color-feasts unfurledThe solace of the countryside in twilight's afterglowOr gardens silver-dazzled, each frond frost-rain-dew-drop pearledOr autumn's glory transcending poetic eloquenceOr fleeting fame and fortune's pedestal, precariousFar finer, nobler, priceless, precious, is the diligence Of all whose footsteps etch in daily dust, unbeauteous     Kind second miles and detours that no world-stage will applaudA legacy of seemingly small and forgotten deeds Enough to love mercy, act justly, walk humbly with God  Awaiting the transfiguration of love's scattered seeds © Janet Martin I am among the Walking Blessed these days...blessed by so many continued comforting messages and deeds of kindness! No wonder Jesus said 'Blessed are those who mourn'!
