Now and Then

Rev. Dr. Jeni Prigmore

When the “now” becomes the “then”

I’ll think of this day yet again

And recognize in hindsight, it’s a “gift”

Reminding myself to feel the “lift”

Of God’s eternal “presence”

Through whatever comes my way

My heart will flutter, but not sway

From knowing all the good that’s given

To transform my “Hell” to “Heaven”

It’s Good’s “forever essence”.
