JAH always puts the right people in our lives

I haven't always properly given thanks for all the people that have come into my life. I mean how many of us really give thanks for ALL the people that cross our paths or whose paths we cross? I've met a few who if you had asked me then, I could swear up and down, that there was no point in my ever having known them. Today though, as I sit here realizing just how much growth I've seen in myself in the last year alone, I humble myself and give thanks. I give thanks that JAH has the saving grace to put each and every person in my life, some for reasons unknown to me at the time. For no matter the length of their stay, or even the very volatile and caustic nature of their visit, much was learned. Much more than my own two eyes could see, was gained.

Today has been one thing after another. This most recent of JAH's accomplices has been most instrumental in helping me see things more clearly, even beyond the range of Lenscrafters glasses. I would be remiss if I didn't say to her often just how much she means to me. So I don't let the opportunity pass me by. And I have learned through my own faith, and the faith and charity of countless others, never to forget to give thanks to The Almighty daily, for any lesson, any reason, any person who has taken a little time to share a little light with me.

I had been weak as a child. As a man I have fallen short, the number of times I dare not count. I awoke this morning and gave thanks to The Father who has reminded me that I was born in His likeness. That as I grow cold and tired, the warmth and comfort in the folds of His garment gather themselves round about me. I was reminded that an army of angels compassed me about, from the time of my birth. Even when I saw them not. Even as I knew them not. It is only now that I know myself, that I have favour to know them also. And the light of the One He has set and groomed just for my witness, is so bright, so full of Godly love, that I rejoice not to never, ever again turn mine eye.

Mine eye is ever looked toward the hills from which cometh mine help.

Just my two cents.....
