gray skies are going to clear up...

“Hope
Smiles from the threshold of the year to come, 
Whispering 'it will be happier'...” 
― Alfred Tennyson

...you know those days where it is dark and gloomy and it feels like the sun is never going to shine (if you live in Michigan you know what I'm talking about, especially this winter ;)...every time you wake up the sun is not there to greet you but rather a gray sky...

...& many times in our life it feels as if the sun might never shine...that each day we will be greeted by another dark sky...& I don't know about you, but it feels like life is sticking it to you, all you want is for a moment for the sun to hit you in the face and give you light...to lift the load a little...& most days the gray skies linger or life keeps kicking you in the face but there are those days when God opens up the gray sky & lets the sun shine down...& says I have not forgotten about you and the gray skies are going to clear up...

...so the next time you are wondering when you will get a moment of reprieve, a moment of peace, a moment of happiness, a moment of sun...look up God just might be smiling down on you in the midst of all of it...
