The light of love

But rather the hidden character of the heart,

    So true! And what a lovely picture to post with this verse. This is a Christmas tree ornament? It looks very rich.

    This verse by Peter is lovely, and the purple in the background caught my eye right away, as purple is my favorite color.

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the gentle night to you.
Moon and stars pour their healing light on you

This isn’t the greatest picture of her...I think I caught her in mid-chew. Sunday I met with both of my daughters and my grandchildren.
