As Summer Emerges

Heavenly Father, Please open my heart these summery days So that Your love may be more visible in me, As beautifully as a monarch emerging From its chrysalis.

If at times my outlook is clouded by concerns, Help me to weather the storms And remember to look for the rainbow.

In the warmth of shining sun, May my faith become more fervent, Not parched but bathed in Your light.

Amen.
