Life in Creation

Life in Creation

- July 15, 2023

Life,

It's a journey.

Even better,

A pilgrimage.

We are born into the world needing love,

Needing peace.

One of the most basic human needs is to love and be loved.

Some may find that special someone,

Some may not.

Some may have the joy of children,

Some may not.

But, we can all seek and share love.

Wonderfully we can also all appreciate the love and peace of creation.

Birds chirping, flowers blooming, butterflies fluttering.

What a beautiful world it is.

This is life.

The persecution, suffering and anguish that come to it for the sake of the Lord’s truth have become a glorious joy and comfort to it.” (Menno Simons)
