Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art.
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.

That’s just the first stanza of this song. Sometimes in the rat race of the survival of the fittest, I find comfort in the hymms and lyrics of old Christian favorites. There are people and even fellow bloggers who run each other down as they compete for attention and more so for the money of paid blogging. Competition is also common in corporate working life where the best stays and the weaker ones leave. Since the fall of Adam, the ground is cursed and the first Man had to work and labor to bring back food after being kicked out from the Garden of Paradise. Since then, whatever we do, we have to sweat it out and work hard for our keep. This is the nature of fallen Man. But with the favor of God for the child of our Heavenly Father, this may not be so. He os she stands on favor ground and no longer on cursed ground.
