Welcome to my Garden!

HOPE WHISPERS TO ME
Hope whispers to me,
When all seems lost...
Hope whispers to me,
See once again, the cross.

Hope whispers to me,
If you can't see the way,
Hope whispers to me,
I will lead you today.

Hope whispers to me,
Through a pain-filled night,
Hope whispers to me,
Be strong, for the day will be bright!

Hope whispers to me,
When all hope seems to flee,
Hope whispers to me,
Soon, there will be victory!

Jim and I at the Huntington Library, a very tranquil
place.

GOOD MORNING, GOD
Good morning, God.
Thank You for this day.
May I use it, to praise You,
In all I do and say.

Good morning, God.
Thank You for the rest,
Please be with me,
If I'm put to the test.

Good morning, God.
I'm happy just to be,
A sheep in Your pasture,
Following after Thee.

Good morning, God.
What can I do for You today?
Please answer my requests,
As I kneel and pray.

Came in the flesh, you see.
And died on a cross
Just for you and me!

IS IT WELL WITH YOUR SOUL?
Is it well with your soul,
When trouble comes your way?

When the world seems mad?
Is it well with your soul,
When others make you sad?

Is it well with your soul?
Remember Jesus on the cross.
It was well with His Soul,
When all seemed so lost.

It was well with His Soul,
For He won the victory.
It will be well with your soul,
For He died, just for thee!

ENCOURAGE GOD'S PEOPLE
Encourage God's people,
Help strengthen faith,
By reminding each one,
Who took their place!

Encourage God's people,
That they aren't alone,
For God sent His son,
Our sins to atone.

And He sits on a throne,
At God's right hand
Intercedes for them all
As only a Savior can.

Encourage God's people
That along the way,
He will be with them
Each and every day!

Some say "hooray,"
They clamor for bargains
In a frenzy all day!

Black Friday is here,
Economist say...
How people will buy,
Effects our future some way.

Black Friday is here,
Some wait at the door
Hour upon hour...
For an item in the store.

There's only one "Black Friday,"
That means anything...
It's when our Savior died,
Salvation to bring!

They come to you each day,
And are packaged in daily blessings,
That come in an ordinary way.

Lord, on the things that matter.
When life gets so hard
And the world seems to shatter.

Keep me focused,
On Your will and Your way.
Give me direction,
As I travel each day.

Keep me focused,
On You, not the sea,
When storm clouds gather,
And surround me.

Keep me focused,
When the path is obscure,
When I can't see the way,
Be thou ever near!

To be safe from Satan's snare?
Where can I go?

You know the way.
Be thou my guide,

But there is much more in store,
When we rejoin Christ,
To live evermore!

freedom you enjoy!

HEAR MY PRAYER, O LORD
Hear my prayer, O Lord:
For this nation I do pray,
Guide the hands of government
Be with them each day.

Hear my prayer, O Lord:
Heal this nation in distress,
Be with the weary soldiers,
I pray, You'll give them rest.

Hear my prayer, O Lord:
Turn back a nation gone astray,
May we again be people,
Who get on our knees and pray!

Forgive our foolish ways,
Protect us from our enemies,
Guide us in the coming days!

(Jesus said) "My Father, if it is possible may this cup be taken
from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will." Matthew 26:39

WHEN GOD SAYS,"NO"
When God says, "no,"
Pray for a listening ear.
When God says, "no,"
Pray to endure.

When God says, "no,"
All is not lost.
When God says, "no,"
 Remember the cross.

When God says, "no,"
Pray not to grumble and cry.
When God says, "no,"
 Try and not ask, "Why?'

When God says, "no,"
Follow His son
And make your words be...
"Thy will be done!"

A test of faith...

A test of faith...
He stood alone,
A test of faith,
You sins to atone!

This nation needs prayer more than ever!

Though he slay me, yet I hope in him.

JESUS, MY LORD

When there's no answer to prayer.

When disappointment comes my way.
Jesus my Lord,
When I don't feel His power today.

Jesus, my Lord,
When the future's unsure.
Jesus, my Lord
When I fear, what I must endure.

Before this day is over your faith may be tested, but remember:

WHEN YOUR FAITH IS TESTED
When your faith is tested,
Fall on your knees and pray.
When your faith is tested,
Say, "I can endure, just for today."

When your faith is tested,
And you think all is lost.
When your faith is tested,
Remember, Jesus on the cross.

When your faith is tested,
Know He was tested too.
When your faith is tested,
Know He will be with you.

When your faith is tested,
And you are not at your best;
When you faith is tested,
Know He will give you rest!

Will help them endure
And give them a lift, along the way.

Kindness...
Will never be out of style,
It can be just a small thing,
Like a hug or a smile.

Kindness...
Is worth much more than gold;
It can make a difference,
In the life of some lost soul!
