This is my Yes, my homage to You
I breathe because,
the morning opens before me in splendor
and I am filled with Air
that praises you my God, my Father.
Here, is the path that I walk upon-
bathed in the warmth of the sun rising,
kissed by the breezes of the dawn-
held in the aroma of misted leaves bending,
filled with love rising that calls out Your Name.
I breathe because,
the sky opens wide
and dips to greet the day as
I cast my heart before you my God, my Father.
Here is the path that I walk upon-
covered with sweet-smelling flowers bearing dew that shines.
Here, amidst stories filled with mysteries in time,
held in cathedrals of tall branches reaching.
Airs come seeking. Love is teaching.
I breathe because,
the Life you give is new, asking, inviting and
I can only say Yes to you my God, my Father.
Is there a moment that we step into Air?
Is there a place that we find where to dare?
Here is the path that I walk upon
bathed in the warmth of all that seems true
filling each moment with breath – life anew.
This is my Yes, my homage to You.

2 Corinthians 1:20 “For all the promises of God find their Yes in him. That is why it is through him that we utter our Amen to God for his glory.”
Psalm 30:4-6 –“Sing praises to the Lord, O you his saints, and give thanks to his holy name. For his anger is but for a moment and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning.”
Lamentations 3:22-23 -“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.”
