Winter solstice brings
A dark day //with future hope
Dispelling darkness
See the candle burning bright
Light returns after the night
Men of old waited
In deep darkness for the Light
Their hopes never dimmed
A baby born in darkness
Brought us the Love of God’s Light
Though darkness remains
God’s Grace changes the hearts of men
Light shines all around
Through the lives of believers
In the soul’s dark night // Love Wins!

Yes, it is a wonderful book… and he has a “Pure Love Does” foundation that reaches out to help needy children. Check it out! Google Bob Goff. I think he is your kindred spirit.

Jan, I looked him up and he looks like a really interesting guy. Quite impressive. They gave one of his quotes that I really liked.
“we’re all rough drafts of the people we’re still becoming.”
Thanks!
