If God gave
us only one day of life, it would have been generous.
If god gave
us only one springtime or one fall, one summer one winter, only one day of
laughter, it would have been generous.
If God gave
us only one beautiful meal, beautifully served in a secure home, it would have
been generous.
If God gave
us only one friend to share the journey of time, only one year of married life,
only one child, sound in mind and body, it would have been generous.
If God gave
us only one storm that left us unharmed, only one day for a good time with
friends, only one talent for creating beauty, it would have been generous.
If God gave
us the faith to laugh only one time in the face of calamity, it would have been
generous.
If God gave
us only one moment's pride in the success of those we love, it would have been
generous.
But He has
given us life and time, joy and sorrow, sunshine and storms, laughter and
tears, gifts to share and days to remember.
He has given
us friends and lovers, children and parents, you and me, and Himself as well.
It is God who
gives us life; who tells us ever after to choose life,
God who is
our resurrection and our hope, who dwells within our hearts as the Spirit of
life, the vanquisher of death and our Beloved Comforter.
