To dreams and wishes floating in the air. . . .

Called to His Path
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
A new year dawns with hope and grace,
A chance to run this faithful race.
With love as light and truth to guide,
I walk with God close by my side.
In each day’s work, in acts so small,
I’ll seek His purpose, heed His call. . . .

The tree in the corner, a magical sight.
