God gave us dreams --
God gave us the sunshine,
God gave us miracles
God gave us the ability
Most of all, God gave us friends
-- Regina Hill
God gave us the seasons --
each with its own beauty and reason,
each meant to bring us a blessing,
a joy, and a feeling of love.
each with its own secret,
each sent to give us feelings of
inspiration, hope, and tranquility.
the rainbows and the rain,
the beauty and freedom of nature
to teach us the wisdom of gentle acceptance.
in our hearts and lives,
little things that happen
to remind us we're alive.
to face each new day
with courage, wisdom,
and a smile from knowing
that whatever sorrow or pain we face,
He abides with us
securely in our hearts.
to teach us about love
and guide us through this world,
always available to help us forward
towards a greater understanding
and a greater sharing and giving of love.
