Sunrise, sunset....


Sunrise, sunset.....

I awoke before the sunrise this morning...then the rays shown forth as the sky quickly blazed with glory in a cloudless sky....it is to be hot today...and the words from the movie, "fiddler on the roof" came to mind...the passing of the days...but also scripture came to mind as well...the beauty, the brightness of God coming forth...my home filled with the sunrise....the beginning of a new day....

Two different meanings, two thoughts from the sun rays....and the morning sky...

Time has indeed flown in life....my life, my marriage, my children turned adults with growing children of their own,   But each day God has shown himself as well...some days in the brilliant sunshine, others in the quiet of the heart words...day in, day out...never leaving or forsaking...always there...He is there.....

Do I acknowledge Him enough, see His light in my life, listen to His counsel, surrender to His will...follow His path...I am but a vapor in time...but He knows the number of hairs on my head...he knew me from the formation of my being...

Let His light break forth..His times go on....generation after generation....thank You for each sunrise....and sunset...

2 Samuel 23:4 he is like the light of morning at sunrise on a cloudless morning, like the brightness after rain that brings grass from the earth.’

Habakkuk 3:4 His splendor was like the sunrise; rays flashed from his hand, where his power was hidden.


Lyrics to Sunrise, Sunset, Fiddler on the Roof.....
Is this the little girl I carried?
Is this the little boy at play?
I don't remember growing older
When did they?

When did she get to be a beauty?
When did he get to be so tall?
Wasn't it yesterday
When they were small?

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze
Sunrise, sunse
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears

What words of wisdom can I give them?
How can I help to ease their way?
Now they must learn from one another
Day by day

They look so natural together
Just like two newlyweds should be
Is there a canopy in store for me?

Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze
Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears
