Monday Writing by Corinne Mustafa,,,,,,5/15/17

Good Morning,

Today's writing is titled, "Wedding Daybreak," from and original poem written by Corinne Mustafa. The rising sun is portrayed as the waking force of our God as he greets His bride first thing in the morning. We need to think of Him and greet Him as our first activity upon waking. Corinne wrote, "We should try to hang on to our groom's gift all day and let it direct our passage through that time which is filled with His warmth. Thank you, God." Daily we should greet, praise, and thank Him.

Cod bless

Corinne

Today's Devotional
"Wedding Daybreak"

 

The sun stretches her shiny arm-like rays

As she rises from her nocturnal divan
behind the eastern hills

Not intense yet as clouds of sleep
Still shroud the luster of her arrival 

To launch another nuptial day.

Like a bride she peeks out
from behind a wedding veil of foggy lace 

Still dimming the blaze to come

As she slowly opens her amber cyclopian eye.

It is a day for glory this

And nothing will be able to hold her back

As she blesses the waiting world below

Bringing her Master’s warmth and life

Carrying His devotion and protection

To all who wake to greet 

Her golden, glowing arrival.

They bask in the radiance of her wake up call

But only few can see or even understand

The intensity of protection and provision

The delivery of His gift of affection brings.

Few ponder a sunrise and comprehend

Even fewer still appreciate or recognize

That the incredible splendor of this gift

She delivers for Him each day

Is the radiance of the our Groom’s good morning kiss.

(C)Corinne Mustafa

Because God has created in such a way that the sun rises and sets each day, we can see a reflection of the life cycle of a person in it. A person is born in the morning, and enjoys her first sight of the things of earth. Her mother's face...her father's loving touch...the feelings of safety that are found from the rituals of time as it spreads out.

Every morning the day dawns. Whether sunny, cloudy. or rainy, whether the sun can actually be seen in a blue sky or hidden behind clouds, the sun is there giving life and warmth from her heated furnace. I had the vision of the sun as a messenger from God who greets us daily like a groom and brings the warmth of His love to His bride. It is likened to a wedding day when the groom sends love and messages to his beloved to rise and shine just as the sun has already done. He sends a kiss of love and warmth to welcome us to our day which blesses us throughout the day.

We should try to hang on to our groom's gift all day and let it direct our passage through that time which is filled with His warmth. Thank you, God.
