Strength of Spirit ...
A QUIET PLACE ... a quiet place for you.  Stop for a few minutes and contemplate the Father.  Us
earthly fathers are not even a mere shadow of Him.  But, I have hope that the best of my character may
give my precious ones-- my wife and daughter -- a hint, a sliver of insight into Him.  And if that, then a
hint of His boundless grace and love.  In a poem I wrote,
An Experiment of One, character is described
as a must.  And, there is a line that describes a part of character as "hope".  It goes like this, "Hope
flows and rises, like daybreak, belief and other life surprises."  My prayer is that you sense in your core
a sliver of God's character in your husband ... in your father ... and the hope of daybreak, belief, and
other life surprises.
