Defying the doldrums

Hark! The February
funk encroacheth!
Resist, resist!
I shall not retreat
from my mundane itinerary—
I shall seize it!
Fold the laundry,
Make the meal,
Comfort the coughing baby, tenderly
~ tenderly ~
carry on with my ordinary life,
finding life itself
Extraordinary.

Amen and Amen!! The ordinary is indeed extraordinary if we only could see clearly.

Only one story was recorded about Jesus' life before His ministry began--but at His baptism, God said that He was well pleased with His Son. This was pointed out at Bible Club by Miss Winters.
