EmPulse for Week of July 19, 2010
no dark in day
There is no dark in day
In the world of work…, and play
For clear is light, with eyes bright
We are not captive to night, to sadness, to a heart wrenched dry
We need not surrender to the empty void within, nor without
For our soul was forged from tougher stuff, tempered gold, alloyed metal—
Strength of spirit, confident in conflict, assured of our bearing
We are no weaklings, thrashing under plan and program
Scurrying to meet deadlines that to others matter
Rather, we know meaning, purpose, cause, and triumph
In the daily crunch of life, yes, but in so much more
We find…
A reason to live, to be alive, nere dead inside, nor to any in need
Alive
To celebrate, to give, to bless, to care
To serve and be of consequence; to honor— God, friends, family, and faith
Faith that this world may never become any better than it is
But, with God’s grace, and strength, and mercy, and forgiveness—
We will
There is no dark in day
Have a nice week.
