SMOKE ON THE WIND

February 11, 2011 Rev. Thomas “Dancing Feather” Ebbing

It is still dark this morning, and I’m wide awake, thinking – turn on the light?
Pull the covers up?
Turn over and catch a few more winks
Or just what to do.
Then I thought about all the people in the world. There are some who seem to always remain in the darkness with their hand on the switch that will turn on the light, and it never gets turned on.
The very next thought I had was, the Creator provides us all with a switch to turn on the light.
Wow!
Something happened, and the light came on. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the light.
Switch on or switch off?
This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Good morning?
Indeed it is!

The Ancient’s Eclipse
A submitted poem by area resident Doug Bohs. When the Earth was still youngAnd could spin without formIt was struck by a massThat sheared off an orb The orb thought of leavingBut decided to stayIt circled the EarthStill not far away The Moon was now hereBut not always thereIt would hide in the shadowsAnd seemed not to care When ...
