The singer and songwriter Carrie Newcomer has a song called "You Can
Do This Hard Thing." One line of the lyrics is "Morning will come whistling
some comforting tune, for you." For today's devotion time, I share this
song. I hope it brings you comfort.
Let us pray:
We give you thanks, O God, for artists, musicians, poets, writers...those
who create something we need to hear or see. Thank you for being the
One who has, throughout time, told us that we can do hard things. Thank
you for the stories that remind us of those who have: Hagar, Ruth, Moses,
Mary...Jesus... Thank you for the new life that appears every day to see us
through. Amen.
