Christ Church Rockville Lenten Devotion

Jer. 25:30-38
Rom. 10:14-21
John 10:1-18

Starting Over
It’s Spring again – Suddenly
she’s stepping forth
from the dark heart of Winter –
There’s no stopping Her,
nor, indeed, who would want to –
So soft and delicate,
She woos my weary soul to
hopeful prayers –
Let me linger near the lush new
leaves of Irish green,
bountiful and rain-filled –
Who knows if I’ll see a future spring?
Only God holds the paintbrush
for every coming season –
Fresh canvas –
For life’s coming years –
Comfort Me
Consoling me, a light
summer breeze –
The breeze does not know why,
but He does;
the One who sends
the light summer breeze,
consoles me –
He knows why –

— Josephine Darner
