Simple Joys Are Enough

Circumstances any better?
Not really.
Beauty on the horizon?
Not exactly.
Love in the air?
Not especially.
Fortunes changing?
Not particularly.
Then why this
feeling of well being?
Must be because
God is good and
simple joys are enough:
A friend back safely
A baby born strong
A child getting help
A hug that lasts all day
The sun coming out.
It's the kind of peace
that comes
without shouting.

Isaiah 26:3
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
