Blank Pages

Happy 50th Anniversary, Dad & Mom E.  May God bless you richly as you continue to walk hand in hand with Jesus and with each other.  I love you gigantically!

*       *       *       *       *
Fifty years yielding
to our precious Savior,
we savor His flavor,
forever in view.
                Setting the stage
                for more years to unfold,
                love more treasured than gold
                and His mercies anew.

Books filled with pages,
each book overflowing,
each paragraph showing
great things He has done.
                Yet blank pages linger
                and thus will remain
                unwritten and plain
                ‘til new days are begun.

Blank pages bursting     
with intrigue and mystery
of all that makes history
yet to be penned.
                Bare pages anxious
                for thrilling occurrence
                with joyful assurance
                fresh ink will commend.

Fresh pages aching
to tell of His glory
in every new story
that steps into shoes.
                Clear pages flowing
                in ceaseless unveiling
                of days never failing
                to bear the Good News.

"Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, 
if there is any consolation of love, 
if there is any fellowship of the Spirit, 
if any affection and compassion, 
make my joy complete by being of the same mind, 
maintaining the same love, 
united in spirit, 
intent on one purpose."  
                                           ~ Philippians 2:1,2
