TODAY'S FEAST

This is a daily writing done by a Native American woman. Joyce uses the NA words for God and the Holy Spirit such asCreator and Great Spirit, but I know from her writing that she is a Christian. You will see why I say this when you read her writing for today.


November 19
Daily Feast
It is lovely to think of you when leaves and grasses are all shades of chrysanthemums and sunshine is golden through the autumn haze.











It is soothing to remember you when all is quiet in the midnight hour, when it is velvet or bathed in silver.









It is comforting to know your faith overcomes your fears, that peace permeates your whole existence. You are aware that nothing equals the peace that passes all understanding. It is with gratitude I know you are wise beyond human comprehension - and kind, even when there is reason not to be. You are the Great Spirit, the endless, loving Presence that blesses us in every hour.
