Have you ever been inspired by a particular Scripture passage, poem, song,
etc.?  Here are some lyrics that have touched me.  Many of you who listen 
to christian music radio stations are probably familiar with these words
sung by the lovely voice of Sandi Patti:

"It's as though we see through clouded glass, our eyes cannot see past
   this veil of tears, our present pain;
 this world can never comprehend a love that will not end, the life that
   always will remain;
 for there, beyond the edge of time, is wisdom so divine, the throne of
   truth, the shining way;
 and soon, in majesty He'll come, to take His people home in that bright
   and shining day;
 for we will see Him as He is."


It makes today's problems and struggles fade to realize the unimaginable
peace and joy that is waiting for us in that day.  I often times need to
be reminded of the promise of tomorrow when facing the reality of today.

I invite others to share some of their favorite Scripture passages, music
lyrics, prayers, poems, or whatever.


              May the peace of Christ be yours,

                          John Emery
