This day is
filled with gladness—
with the beauty, grandeur, order
of the harmony of Christ,
leading out of darkness
of fear, sorrow, sin, 
into the sunshine—
when His love
is welcomed in.

No self-will
wrinkles the fabric
of this day. 
Love keeps His creation
intact, holding all grandly
in the palm of His hand. 

—Elaine B. Melloy
