End of Day,
He sat on the side of the bed looking out the windows,
a peaceful scene of the woods with tree's silhouetted against the night sky.
He took off his shoes and rolled into bed, enjoying the comfort of its soft welcome.
As he burrowed down into the covers, and reached his usual semi-fetal position, the cares and responsibilities of the day gave way to peaceful thoughts of rest. These thoughts as always made his mind run to the fount of every blessing.
"Thank You Lord, for another day of health, happiness, joy, family, friends, prosperity and most of all for knowing You Lord. Without You I would be, lonely, unhealthy, short tempered, worrisome, and without the joy that now lives within. Without You, life would be just a stack of days, filled with hopeless clamoring for sustenance and another empty thrill which would once again end with, is that all there is? Instead there is comfort peace and the joy of relaxation in the sweet peaceful grace of Your forgiveness and salvation. The greatest gift You left for us is indeed Love, love for You Lord, and for all those you have and will place in my life. Once again thank You, and I love You.
As sleep clouds his thoughts, he can't help but wonder how so many can make it through one more day without the peace he enjoys, and why they would even try when it's free for the asking.
