O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off.”  — Psalms 139:1, 2
King James Version of the Bible

from Reaching For The Light
Be Aware of Your Blessings … p. 159

Take heed;
Be aware of your thoughts.
Be they for good
Or be they for ill
Your outlook on life,
Your personal health,
Are profoundly affected
By choices made
In thought and deed.

Naught’s to be gained
In thinking ill:
It holds you in bondage
And forever will.

Turn to the light,
Of goodness and love;
Give thought to that from above:
Ours, scripturally and morally, is to
“Hunger and thirst after righteousness”
And to “Do as you would be done by.”

Be free of all judgment,
Look beyond what you see,
We’re children of nature,
Of God’s loving care:
Be aware of your blessings,
Be ever aware.
— Garry D. Kilbourn
