Freda's Garden:

Welcome to my Garden!
This is our graduating seniors at church.
from left to right. David Ahia, Victoria Heuler, Michelle Blanchet
and Christian Heuler. Don Goodwin, our youth minister, honored
them yesterday. A great tribute and great service.
Today's poem was written in June 1992, for our graduating class.
Ron Stow was our youth minister and asked me to write something.
Our graduating seniors that year were Tom Anderson, Georgia Crowson,
John Lantz and Scott Paden. So to our graduating class this month,
This is my advice to you.

REACH OUT FOR YOUR DREAM
Reach our for your dream
On your graduation day.
Stay on the path,
Make God's way your way.

Do not dream of things,
This world thinks are grand.
Look to your Savior,
For Him take a stand.

Do not measure successes
By the world's tarnished rule,
For Proverbs calls
such a one fool.

Measure your successes,
By the golden rule
And the things you were taught
In Sunday School.

Reach out for your dream,
For your life, have a vision,
Make God's Word your guide,
For each important decision.

Look to the future,
But remember the past,
Seek not life's quick-silver,
But things that will last.

Honesty and kindness
A love that is true
And all the good things in life,
Will surely come to you.
