Letter 4398
Summer creeps upon the land, bright dawn and clear skies, yet the morning brings chill.
These glorious days, their cost is a frigid morning.
Walking through my rooms, I regret my light bedclothes and wish for a cap.
❖
At noon I will be grateful for the beauty and I will be strong. For now, I shiver.
Let me accept momentary discomfort, Lord, do your glory.
Consider:
Can I accept momentary discomfort?
