Silent
Partner
Life is a series of
events happy and sad ...
love, marriage,
the birth of a child;
the loss of one
deeply loved, hurt relationships.
In time
we understand more of life’s meaning,
recognizing each
event as a chance to reinforce our love
and
confirm the value and joy of living.
With
each new opportunity to grow,
challenges pull
us closer to facing our mortality and
enrich our
appreciation of the gifts that we have been given.
In
facing an event that defies resolution,
we need a
friend -- a partner.
My silent partner ...
my faith in
God’s understanding and love --
is an endless
reservoir of strength.
We make
our lives what they are.
My deep faith in God
and my church
channels my
strengths to overcome difficult obstacles
and appreciate
life’s pleasant surprises alike.
God’s
gift of faith is the guiding hand
that makes me
the person that I need to be –-
closer to His
image,
continuing
to grow and accept His love.
