=) =) =)
funny how a conversation can take two or more lines at a time–the smell things never did work its way into the haiku itself =)

<3 [thought these words of His would be meaningful in light of this piece..]

From Beth Moore's Praying God's Word Day by Day (today, 28th):

The lead in threw me off a bit

"If we keep fighting our own inner battles, we'll never have the strength to stand up and fight our true enemy."

The body:

"O God, how I thank Your for seeing my misery and hearing my cries" … "You are concerned about my suffering. Come down to rescue me, O Lord, and bring me to your place of promise (Exod. 3:7-8)."

Didn't like the beginning of next part, edited to just

"Who is like You, Lord – majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders? Stretch out Your right hand and deal with my enemy, God! (Exod. 15:11-12)"

He did for me today!

"I thank you that those who belong to You are meant to be the head, not the tail! If I am obedient to You and do not turn aside from Your ways, You will not allow the enemy to keep me at the bottom. (Deut 28:13-14) Thank you for answering this and other prayers today Lord and I lift up "Your son" and pray the same for him. In Christ. Amen.

This is good. Thank you. Unfortunately true, however fortunate too, but still appropriately titled. Am recovering also .. thus the resonance. Again, thank you.

there is a sort of summers night vibe going on till that second line isn’t there? didn’t occur to me of course because, it was cold when i wrote it, but the talk of photons, beaming and gleaming prime you for warmth

i tried my hand at the second stanza, but couldn’t get it to work as well as your version. :)

had these lines running through my head over and over a few days ago:
“someone said the test of love
is making hard decisions–
choosing, for another’s sake,
the necessary actions;”

your metered version, not mine, of course =)
oh what memorability meter brings!
