"Some Good to Do"


Dear Friends,

Here is a poem from an Ideals Magazine that I thought went along with these photos from a recent nature outing~

"Some Good to Do"
by Georgia B. Adams


If there's some good that I can do 
To ease another's way,



If I can cause the sun to shine
Or moonbeams softly play,


If I can help to make a dream~
A lifelong dream come true,


My purpose for existing will
Be most rewarding, too.

If just a simple word of cheer
I might pass on to you,


Or help to ease a lonely hour
Of those whose friends are few,


Then I am rich for I have gained
A satisfaction sweet


In working out God's will for me
With all of those I meet.


I'd draw them into common bond
And for them daily pray;


I want to be God's instrument
To ease another's way.



Love,

Marqueta

  5. Pretty post! I hope you and yours are all doing well! Finally back up and running with Wordpress, and finally got a computer again, so should be easier to get back in the groove. Love and hugs, Lynn
