DO NO BE SO BUSY

Do not be so busy
That you don't think of Me today.
Do not be so busy
That you can't take time to pray.

Do not be so busy
That you're weighted down with little things.
Do not be so busy
That you miss the blessings today brings.

Do not be so busy
That you try to do everything today.
Do not be so busy
That you can't rest along the way.

Do not be so busy
That you forget the meaning and reason.
Do not be so busy
Remember I am the focus of this season.

"I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made."
Psalm 139:14

YOU ARE WONDERFULLY CRAFTED

You are wonderfully crafted
But you grow weary with age.
So prepare your mind and your spirit
For that part of life's stage.

You are wonderfully crafted
But your body is effected by the years.
With all of life's troubles and sorrows
And all the emotional tears.

You are wonderfully crafted
As you age, identify more fully with Me.
And as your body grows older
You spirit grows younger, you see.

You are wonderfully crafted
But the physical body won't last.
As the process of aging continues
On Me your anchor do cast!

HOW GOD WORKS

God works through His word
Though His invisible power
God works when we pray
And with Him spend an hour.

God works in overwhelming ways
That will change our mood.
God works in subtle ways
To change our attitude.

God works when we inhale His love
And exhale His goodness, you see.
God works when we breath in His Grace
And breath out His forgiveness to you and me.

God works  in infinite ways
To encourage and to bless
God works In all of these ways
Our praise is His one request!

Expands in love and mercy
If we follow His way.

The heart
Will break into pieces in each loss
But God has promised to mend it
At the foot oft he cross.

DON'T FEED THE TROLLS

Don't feed the trolls

Some people want to cause trouble
They are what you might call sharks.

Don't feed the trolls

When we answer in kind
We put our selves in danger.

Don't feed the trolls
Let gossip dies a silent death
Be kind in both deed and word
Make this your honest quest.

Don't feed the trolls

Make allowances for bitter souls
God will take care of things His way!

THIS WOR;D'S A SCARY PLACE

This world's a scary place
Sometimes victory we cannot see
But God offers grace
To sinners just like me.

This worlds' a scary place
And we seek a place to hide
And Jesus whispers to us,
"In Me you shall abide."

This world's a scary place
With danger all around
The world offers false security
But in Christ, peace is found.

The world's a scary place
And the news is always grim
But Jesus is good news
In Him Salvation's found!

TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN

To that God has to say.
Take the time to listen
To what your friends convey.

Take the time to listen
Sometimes people just want a friend
Take the time to listen
Just your presence lend.

Take the time to listen

Take the time to listen

Take the time to listen
To God's heart, it is the key.
Take the time to listen

"Come to me all you who are weary and burdened and zi will give you rest"
Matthew 11:28

TAKE TIME

Take time to pray
Although the results may be
That it will take some time
For you to ever see.

Take the time to read God's Word
To see what it has to say
Make it your compass
To guide you each day.

Take the time to listen
To what other people say
You may be the means
For lifting their burden of the day.

Take the time to rest and dream
That's what clever people do
That's how great inventions come about
That makes the world a better for you.

The heavens declare His glory
The stars declare the work of His hand
Day follows day
And the sunsets over the land.

The heavens declare His glory
As clouds move along the sky
So many beautiful, special moments
That brings along a sigh.

The heavens declare His glory
On a storm-filled night
And its mighty forces
Fills us with fright.

The heavens declare His glory
A rainbow after rain.
It is filled with promise
One day there'll be no pain.

Welcome to my Garden.
Today' Poem was taken from the Scripture Philippians 4:1

STANDING FIRM

Standing firm
In your faith.
Standing firm
In life's race.

Standing firm
When the world lets you down.
Standing firm
On God's solid ground.

Standing firm
Against unbelief
Standing firm
When the pathway is steep.

Standing firm
Even if you stand alone
Standing firm
For this world is not home!

Welcome to my Garden: Today's poem was taken from today's (In Touch)

WHEN WE WALK WITH THE LORD

When we walk with the Lord
And we follow His will
He whispers to us,
"Peace Be Still"

When we walk with the Lord
And our path is obscure
Remember He's promised
That our path is secure.

When we walk with the Lord
And meet Him in prayer
He'll bring us joy
For He's always there.

When we walk with the Lord
Though rough toe journey may be
The journey will lead home
To heaven so free!

Welcome to my garden:
Today's poem was not taken from today's (Beside The Still Waters) but
it fits in well with today's thought.
LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED:

ONE DAY

One day my pen will be stilled
And I shall be no more.
But I shall meet you
On that golden shore.

One day I shall be gone
I shall fly away
To the home prepared for me
Where there is eternal day.

On day I shall say goodbye
tho those I love so dear
But they can keep me in memory
And I will always be near.

One day I shall meet Jesus
I shall see  Him face to face.
And all those gone before me
I shall in love embrace.

OH. CHILD SO WEARY

Oh, child so weary
Of the trials of life.
I will give you comfort
From all worldly strife.

Oh, child so weary
Of disappointments and sorrow,
You can rest assured
Of a brighter tomorrow.

Oh, chid so weary
Of pain and each lonely night,
I will sooth all your misgivings
And calm your every fright.

Oh, child so weary
Who fears what dearth will bring
Know I ill never leave you
I will take care of everything!

Today's poem was taken from "In Touch"

LIVING BY YOUR CONVICTIONS

Living by your convictions
For that, you must pray
That God will give you strength
For each and every day.

Living by your convictions
In a world that thinks they are absurd
You beed to daily be
In God's Holy Word.

Living by your convictions
Even when you're on your own
Remembering your Savior
He also stood alone.

Living by your convictions
Be committed to your God
For He will walk with you
On the path of life you trod!
