Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

A Brush with Living

 

This is no time for ease and comfort
This is the time to dare and endure
Winston Churchill
I have two paint canvases leaning against my desk
They have been there now for two years- pristine
They get dusted and they get forgotten
Perhaps they receive my wistful glances
But they remain as blank as the day I brought them home
I have done them an injustice
If I had left them for another to buy
Perhaps someone bolder than I would have taken up a brush 
And dared to fill them 
Today leans against your life
an empty canvas
Be bold
Be brave
Don't ignore your empty canvas
Begin to boldly fill  today 
with life
and color

and that's poetiquejustis
                                    Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace,
                           that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
