“I am not one who can claim to be stronger, wiser or happier. I am one who journeys among the broken and among those who continue to rejoice for glimpses of heaven along the way.” - Joyce

I will smile again

Though tears flow from these eyes

I will smile again

And trust tomorrow the sun shall rise

Though darkness may enfold me

Though heavy rain can’t help but pour

Though shattered, lost and broken

Though heart could barely bear it all

 

Though tired and weary and confused

Though badly hurt and bruised

I know that I will smile again

And I will smile again!

When you're hurt, know that darkness is passing. Poems on hurt feelings remind you this- that you WILL SMILE AGAIN!

Goodnight my dear

I’m glad I have you near

For the many things you’ve brought me

There’s nothing I shall fear

Goodnight my dear

Let my songs wipe your tears

We’ve certainly got each other

And we always shall through the years

Goodnight my dear

Let my prayer bring you cheer

The moon is bright and the stars are shining

And they bless us always here :-)

Pain and pleasure, both seem to tempt us

distracting us from our true and lasting joys.

Pleasure alone, brought by the senses

cannot make us truly happy.

They accompany us for a while,

but are soon forgotten

and we weep not for loss of their memory.

Pain on the other hand inflicts our soul

and we cry out for justice,

we seek for God's goodness.

What makes us happy then

if not the passions of our flesh?

It is the thought we render

upon whatever sensations that come our way,

the light by which our souls perceive true beauty,

by which love is revealed unto us,

changing us,

etching eternity unto our hearts.

It is thus that pain and pleasure become meaningful

even to be vehicles of good

It is thus when pain

reminds us

of the frailty of our pleasures

and how we should seek the things

that will truly last.

It is thus when the pleasure

of seeing a beautiful rose

sinks deep into our soul,

for then a rose is no longer just a rose,

but a gift most warmly and generously given,

always to remind us

how sweetly

and how strongly

we have been loved.

Divine Mercy

"Tell them that no soul that has called
upon My mercy has been disappointed
or brought to shame."

I cannot punish even the greatest sinner if he makes an appeal to My compassion, but on the contrary, I justify him in My unfathomable and inscrutable mercy.

"I will never turn away anyone who comes to me..." - John 6:37
