Morning (or Afternoon) Minuet

I needed to head out before I got this morning's post up...Better late than never😅💗 I 'adopted' a bit of Anne of Green Gables' logic this morningas I headed outdoors for my morning 'commune' withmy Heavenly Father... In Ontario we are accustomed to white landscapes in Februarymaking this year's gray-blue-bronze panoramas seem sort of surreal! The music of a new day starts to play upon the airEarth emerges from beneath the soft surge of morning-tideWhere something like a greeting hymn and something like a prayerErases slumber’s eulogy from waking countryside Hope’s precedence persuades us to face forward and look upAnd bids us by the grace of God, once more to hoist faith’s cupAnd trust Him for whatever spills to overflow its brim Then sing to Him, whose love anoints/appoints each virgin steppingstone And bow before the one whose perfect will, will lead the wayAnd worship He who shepherds us through valleys of Unknown And trust the Hand that orchestrates each moment of each day The music of a new day crescendos and fills the sky A little like a lilting celestial serenadeOr like a welkin minuet that kindles love's replyWith raised voices, to rejoice in this day the Lord has made © Janet Martin Psalm 5:3My voice You shall hear in the morning, O LORD; In the morning I will direct it to You, And I will look up. But I will sing of Your strength and proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning. For You are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble. Lamentations 3:22-23English Standard Version 22 The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;[]his mercies never come to an end;23 they are new every morning;great is your faithfulness.
