Gazing at the wonder of the Cross<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Abundant grace<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Golden light on dew-kissed roses<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heralding the break of day<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooing doves, at morn\u2019s awakening<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dusty hooves of foals at play<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wheat fields, like a tawny ocean<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rippling in the wind\u2019s caress<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dancing streams, their spray asparkle<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pensive pools in quiet rest<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Air perfumed with scent of jasmine<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wind charm\u2019s soft melodious ring<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dappled earth through filtered sunlight<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gamboling lambs at start of spring<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Miracle of baby\u2019s birthing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brand new breath, a lusty cry<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Old man resting, children’s chatter<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puff balls in a dreamy sky<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cells and segments of an orange<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neatly packed with tasty bliss<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warm embrace of two young lovers<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tenderness of mother\u2019s kiss<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These and countless other blessings<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are bestowed on us each day<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pointing us to God’s compassion<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Showing us His love-filled way<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He surrounds us with His beauty<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fills our souls with untold wealth<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lifting them from deep depression<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Into happiness and health<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet His greatest gift of goodness<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starts its journey steeped in death<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wounded Saviour hanging, dripping<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blood for us with His last breath<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cursed that he might buy our healing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Tombed to fight for all our souls<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breaking forth in glorious victory<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Empty grave, and men made whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What a song our hearts are singing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let the church bells toll and toll<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus is our Lord and Saviour<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Tis indeed well with my soul.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
