It Will Show In Your Face

You don't have to tell how you live each day,
You don't have to say if you work or you  play,
A tried, true barometer serves in the place;
However you live, it will show in your face.

The false, the deceit  that you bear in your heart,
Will not stay  inside, where it first got a start,
For sinew and blood are a thin veil of lace:
What youwear in your heart you wear in your face.

If your life is unselfish, if for others you live,
For not what you get, but how much you can give:
If you live close to God , in  His infinite grace,
You don't have to tell it, it shows in your face.

Two Boxes

I have in my hand two boxes,
Which God gave to hold.
He said ,"Put all your sorrows in the black,
And all your joys in the gold."
I heeded His words, and in the two boxes,
Both my joys and sorrows I store.
But though the gold became heavier each day,
The black was as light as before.
With curiosity, I opened the black .
I wanted to find out why.
And I saw, in the base of the box a hole,
Which my sorrows had fallen out.
I showed the hole to God, and mused aloud,
" I wonder where my sorrows could be ."
He smiled a gentle  smile at me .
"My child , they all here with me ."
I asked , God why give me the boxes,
Why the gold , and black with the hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings; the black is for you to let go."
We should consider all of our friends a blessing.
