The Rarest Flowers in the Darkest Shadows

Freely run off the path to pick the rarest flowers in the darkest shadows...I'll find a place above it all where no one tries to stand on my shoulders or steal my strength.  -Rosanne Anderson 

James 1: 2-4
Consider it great joy, my brothers, whenever you experience various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.  But endurance must do its complete work, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing.

When my world is dark, I will run off the path to rescue the flowers drowning in the dark.  When my world is cold, I will light such a fire of inspiration and hope that all will see the glow and find their strength in its warmth.  When I feel I have given all I have, I dream of the day when I will find a place above it all- where no one can steal my joy or sap my strength.

Lamentations 3:21-23
This I recall to my mind,
Therefore I have hope.
The LORD's lovingkindness indeed never cease,
For His compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
Great is Your faithfulness
