Blessed
I'm blessed
to have a family.
I'm blessed
to have you living in me.
You've saved
me from my darkest fears.
You've always
dried up my sobs and tears.
My life is
the best gift you've given to me.
You have
found me when I was lost,
You've opened
my eyes so I can see.
I could go on
with more,
but I'm sure
you've already guessed,
there's
nothing better than always being blessed!!

Taming
the Tongue
My untamed
tongue I can't tackle
And so a bad
joke, I loudly crack
Easy to see,
all self-control I lack
As I
helplessly start to cackle!
Now my
conscience starts to gnaw
"Lord,
you know I love you so
But I'm just
going with the flow
And that
can't be too big a flaw!"
Unsuspectingly,
I pick up the Bible
James 1:26 is
what eye can see
"Your
religion is as useless as can be
If you can't
control your gab & giggle!"

The
Promise
God didn't
promise life without pain.
A life of
sunshine and no rain.
He made it
plain as a windowpane.
There would
be no gain without pain.
Sin is to
blame and it's a shame
to be caught
in its flame.
That's why
Christ came
to set us
free from its flames.

Chit

Have you
heard the news?
Are you
singing the blues?
Does life
have you beat?
I have a tip
that's really neat!
God doesn't
care if you live in the streets.
He can set
your feet dancing with an upbeat.
If you ask
him in a heartbeat.

Seeds
Seeds are
planted, and how they grow
is not for
you, or I to know...
Our job's to
choose, and plant the seed
God gives to
us, to meet a need...

Pruning
of Thee
I thought
that a poem
would be good
at this time
to bring out
a truth
to write out
a rhyme...
Like a dance
on a page
to see
something new
like a dawn
in the mind
to bring it
to view...
The believer today
will have
many a test
the trial,
the heartache
the leaving
the nest...
The testings
of fire
the moldings
of clay
the pruning
of life
day after day...
At the gate
of your heart
if bitterness be
from the
testing of fire
and the
pruning of thee...
Remember the past
God meeting
your need
He works on
the heart
and puts in
the seed...
There's
reward for the life
and great it
will be
from the
results of the fire
and fruit
from the tree...
Great value
you have
in the eyes
of the King
great worth
He has placed
in the
simplest thing...
TRUST in the LORD
with all of
your heart
not money or things
should keep
you apart...
For the LORD
He is high
and forever
will be
which brings
one to ponder
What can man
do for me...?
It's a choice
to be faithful
it's a choice
to stay free
it's a choice
to let God
do the
pruning in thee...
Long life He
will give
many times
you will see
the workings
of God
in His
Salvation for thee...
Like a dance
on a page
we will read
in the end
God:
Redeemer, Provider,
Father, and Friend...

Gift
for Thee
I love the
spring, when things do grow
no effort
made, the seeds I sow
even though I
sleep, they bud the same
the flowers
speak, they call my name
to encourage
those, who chance a view
God sends a
card, of I Love You
machinery
great, the details grand
to make it
grow, to make it stand
thoughtfulness
there, kindness too
to make a
gift, just for you
I love the
stars, the night time brings
no thoughts
of mine, made these things
some are
close, the seaman smiles
some are far,
our awe inspires
a structure
there, a beauty too
to encourage
those, who chance a view
machinery
great, the details grand
to make a
sight, to encourage a man
thoughtfulness
there, kindness too
to make
eternity, just for you
The bar is
high, these gifts He's made
I'll give my
life, to learn the trade
my brush is
small, my intent is sweet
the colors
gray, but the line is neat
to paint my
life, in such a way
to be a gift,
day after day
He sees my
work, an awful hue
and decides
to add, a color or two
a structure
there, a beauty too
to encourage
those, who chance a view
I've made my
choice, my resolve is true
God help me
be, a gift for you.

Shattered
Victims
Poem: Tonight
I'm crying for this world
A world of
broken hearts
Shattered
victims all whose lives
Are full of
splintered parts
Children's
tears, the aged's fears
The blind,
the deaf, insane,
Broken homes
and broken vows,
We don't know
who's to blame
But every
time it is the weak
Whose pain is
felt the most
And over
often who gets blamed?
Father, Son
and Holy Ghost

I
need Him
Life can be a
challenge. filled with worry, and stress.
Sometimes as
a mother, there is little time to rest.
There are
days when everything seems grim.
That is when
I really need Him.
Oh God with
all that life can demand.
I will
hold on to your hand.
And it
will be then that I can stand.
You created
me to need you, and to worship you each day.
You give me a
sweet peace inside everytime I pray.
I know deep
within the depths of my soul.
It is
you alone that makes me whole.
