Welcome to my Garden.
Today's  poem was taken form today's "Jesus Calling."

YOU BEGIN THE DAY WITH INADEQUATE RESOURCES

You begin each day with inadequate resources
You depend entirely on Me
Life is very precious
Let Me live close to thee.

You begin each day with inadequate resources
This is how life should be
Self-sufficiency is a myth
You receive your power from Me.

You begin each day with inadequate resources
But I am just a prayer away
And I'll empower for the journey
If you seek Me each day.

You begin the day with inadequate resources
Heath and wealth can quickly go away
But remember I am everlasting
And I can prepare you for each day!

"You word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."
Psalm 119:105

LET ME TEACH YOU YO BE THANKFUL

Let Me teach you to be thankful
Take the time to see
The world is full of blessings
And it all belongs to me.

Let Me teach you to be thankful
Start the day in prayer
Thank Me for the night's safety
For I was with you there.

Let Me teach you to be thankful
Your classroom is the world, you see
I have created all its beauty
And everywhere, you can see Me.

Let Me teach you to be thankful
I'm a light for your weary feet
And if you learn to be thankful
My Word's a lamp that is complete!

Be thankful for all of your blessings

With mistakes you've made.

Come to Me...

Come to Me...
And really live.

Come ro Me...

HEIGHTEN YOUR PERSPECTIVE

Heighten your perspective
When trouble comes your way
Just try to remember
It's not here to stay.

Heighten your perspective
Self-pity is not for you
Let Me be your guide
In all you say and do.

Heighten your perspective
Difficulties can be a stepping-stone
For a  better view for you
And you never are alone.

Heighten your perspective
See My guiding light
There may be obstacles in your path
But you're always in My sight!

FOR FULLNESS OF JOY

For the future I can see.

Do the things I want you to do
I will never send you out
Without empowering you.

Trust Me each day
I am the path of life
I will never lead you astray!

Do not trouble borrow.

Walk with Me...
Tune out the world's distraction.
Walk with Me...
Only I bring satisfaction.

Walk with Me...
I died to set you free.

Then peace is yours, you see.

From busy plans refrain.
Walk with Me...
Heaven will be your gain!

MIND CONTROL

Mind control...
Is sometimes hard to do
I risked so much
To give this freedom to you.

Mind control...
I made you in My Image, you see
I want you mind to focus on Me
But I have set you free.

Mind control...
Is a choice you must make
My grace covers you
And each an every mistake.

Mind control...
When you meet Me in prayer
My Spirit takes hold of you
Joy and peace is there!

DO NOT BE AFRAID

Do not be afraid
Hear Me say, "peace be still"
And your restless heart
I want my love to fill.

Do not be afraid
Let My joy fill your mind
I will never leave you
I'm the one who healed the blind.

Do not be afraid
Bad news the world  may proclaim
It is well with your soul
If you seek My Holy Name.

Do not  be afraid
Don't fret about tomorrow
For I walk with you
And see your tears and sorrow!

I LOVE YOU

I love you...
Not for what you do
That's not it, you see
I created you.

I love you...
You need not feel unworthy, you see
When doubts come your way
Be sure to search for Me.

I love you...
With an everlasting love
That's why I shower you
With blessings from above.

I love you...
And this is my plea
That you feel My presence
As I walk with thee.

PEACE

Peace:
Is a continual gift
It will keep you near
It will give your soul a lift.

Peace:
Is not indépendant of Me
You need me close
I'll set you free.

Peace:
Comes through prayer
It helps you realize
You need Me every hour.

Peace:
Comes through My grace alone
With a thankful heart
You may approach My throne.

Do not be distracted by worldly things

And peace to you it brings.

Don't let troubles get in the way
Go calmly forth
Into each new day.

Remember I'm on your journey too
And I will clear your pathway
My power will see you through.

I desire steadfastness from you
I share your joys and problems, you see
And I shall be your guide
For I am living in thee!

STILLNESS OF SOUL

Stillness of soul
Is what you need
Communion with Me
And My Word heed.

Stillness of soul
Is precious to Me
A seeking heart
Is what I want from thee.

Stillness of soul
Is increasingly rare
In a world filled with noise
And people with no care.

Stillness of soul
Is difficult to achieve
Don't be discouraged
Just continue to believe!

YOU HAVE NO NEED THAT I CAN'T FILL

You have no need the I can't fill
So to me, all your problems bring
I will remove the clutter in your heart
In Me, you have everything.

You have no need that I can't fill
In Me, all your yearning will cease
For it is I alone, you see,
That can bring you lasting peace.

You have no need that I can't fill
After all, I created you
And I do control the world
Although it does not seem I do.

You have no need that I can't fill
The visible things are very brief
It is the invisible things
That will be yours to keep!

I AM THE GARDENER FOR YOUR HEART

I am the Gardener of your heart
I find some weeds growing there,
Little sprouts of doubt and fear
Are scattered everywhere.

I am the Gardener of your heart
I know your deepest need,
To have the flower of peace within
And loves sweet, sweet seed.

I am the Gardener of your heart
Trouble is fertilizer for your soul,
It will always bring you growth,
Even when you're old.

I am the Gardener of your heart
Weeds will shrivel, where there's love
So thank Me for trouble times
And blessing from above!
