I AM WITH YOU:

FREDA'S GARDEN OF POETRY

 

I AM WITH YOU
I Am with you

And was with you, when you were conceived

I have big plans for you

Many blessings you have received.


I am with you

Through every pain and sorrow.

And I will be with you

Through each and every tomorrow. 

 

I am with you

When you are feeling blue.

I'll be at your side,...

When other's fail you.

 

I am with you

Through valley of fear

I went to the cross

So I could be near,

ALL THAT I NEED

 FREDA'S GARDEN:


ALL THAT I NEED

 

All that I need

My portion is in God.

He's all I need

As the journey I trod.


All that I need

God will supply, you see,

For he know all my needs

And gives them to me.


All that I need

My not be all that I crave.

But he knows what's best,

So I'll give Him all praise.

 

All that I need

The blessings unfold,

As I find His supply,

Never gets old!

FROM MESS TO MESSAGE

 FREDA'S GARDEN OF POETRY\

Today's poem was taken from (Our Daily Bread)

 

FROM MESS TO MESSAGE:

From mess to message

Is the story of the cross

How God turned our messes

Into hope for the lost 

 

From mess to message

Our lives will now be

Free from our messes.

Because He died upon a tree.


From mess to message

We must tell the world, you see'

That no matter how messy the sin,

Jesus died to set us free. 

 

From mess to message

When we think we can't be redemmed,

It is an insult to God of creation,

 For His power we demean.

GOD IS LISTENING

 FREDA'S GARDEN OF POETRY:

Today's poem was taken from (Our Daily Bread)

GOD IS LISTENING

God is listening

When I pray.

He listens patiently

Every day.

 

God is listening

When I cry...

He whispers softly,

I hear each sigh.


God in listening

When pain is hard to bear

He says, "I'm with you.

Know I care."

 

God is listening 

When I say, "forgive me".

His answer..."I died on the cross,

 For my love for thee."

THE TESTING.

FREDA'S GARDEN OF POETRY

THE TESTING

Testing comes to us all 

When sorrow we must bear

It is then that we say...

"God are you really there?"


Testing comes to us all

When pain comes into our life

It makes us wonder

Why we suffer so much strife?


Testing comes to us all

When disappointment comes our way

We may feel all alone

In a wold that's gone astray

 

Testing comes to us all

God allows us to question,why?

For He loved us so much,

He gave  His only son to die!

A TIME TO SPEAK

 FREDA'S GARDEN OF POETRY:

Take from (Our Daily Bread)

"To every thing there is a season....a time to be silent and a time to speak"
Ecclesiastes 3:3-7

 

A TIME TO SPEAK

A time to speak up

And a time to be silent, you see

Let the Holy Spirit

Be a guide for thee.


A time to  speak 

Against injustice and bigotry.

God will give courage

To you and to me.


A time to speak

When God is profaned,

We must speak up

For His Holy Name!

 

A time to speak

In kindness and love.

Guided by our God

And heaven above!

THE CORNERS OF MY MOUTH

 FREDA'S GARDEN OF POETRY:


THE CORNERS OF MY MOUTH

The corners of my mouth

Will be the concerns of my heart

So I must be sure

My smile does not depart.


The corners of my mouth

Upturned should be

For a smile on my face

Will affect others, you see.


The corners of my mouth

If it is always in a  frown

Will not spread much joy

And will let my Savior down.

 

The corners of my mouth

Is a mirror to my to my soul

And help or hinder me,

In the greatest story ever told,

Leave comparison behind!

Don't compare yourself with others,

Work that only you can do!

WHEN GOD FRUSTRATES YOUR PLANS


When God frustrates your plans

And sets up a road-block for you

Go to Him in prayer

He'll tell you what to do.


When God frustrates your plans

And asks you to wait

Listen to His voice

Before it's too late.


When God frustrates your plans

And His answer is no

Trust His wisdom

You have no where else to go. 


When God frustrates your plans

They may not be His plans, you see,

He just wants you to know

He has a much better plan for thee!

UNFINISHED PROJECT


Unfinished Project

Is what we are

God is not finished 

With us, by far.


Unfinished project

We're in His workroom, you see

And He's still working 

On you and on me.


Unfinished project

Through His Mercy and Grace

We're being prepared

For this earthly race.


Unfinished projected

Will be complete

When we see Jesus

And worship at His feet!

GOD IS CRYING


God is crying

For those who've rejected the cross.

God is crying

For a world that is lost.


God is crying

For babies unborn

God is crying

For those who do mourn.


God is crying

For a world of unrest and hate.

God is crying

For those who wait until it's too late.


God is crying

For those who've bought Satan's lies

God is crying 

For each unbeliever that dies.

Welcome to my Garden.

Today's poem was taken from today's In Touch-Charles Stanley.

It was very hard for me to conquer my fears and ride this gondola to the  top of this mountain in Switzerland!
 

HOW TO CONQUER YOUR FEARS


How to conquer your fears

First admit them to you.

Name them each one

And hold them up to view.


How to Conquer your fears

Take them to God in prayer

Name them all to Him

While you are with Him there.


How to conquer your fears

When Satan whisper doubt in your ear

Answer him with Scripture

And he will soon disappear.


How to conquer your fears

Remember you're human, you see

And  it's God who has power

And He's still working on thee!.

Welcome to my Garden.

Today's poem was taken from today'a "Our Daily Bread ."

The ant is very small, but God gave it the strength to lift  things twice his size

So don't you think He will give us strength to conquer the storms of life?


SMALL, YET MIGHTY

Small, yet mighty

Mankind can be

 Jesus whispers to us

"Come follow Me"


Small, yet mighty

We must trust it will be

That God will provide

All our strength, you see.


Small, yet mighty

Matters not the world's schemes

God is our guide 

And hears our prayers and our dreams.


Small, yet mighty

When circumstances seem grim

God is always waiting

For us to turn to Him!

Welcome to my Garden. 

Today's poem was taken from (In Touch-Charlea Stanley) 

For every thorn there is a rose and for every cloud there is sunshine.

It depends on how we see things.


LIFE'S FRUSTRATIONS

Life's frustrations 

Comes to us all

There are times when we feel

We have hit a brick-wall.


We fret and we fuss

When things seem go wrong 

And often we wonder

If we have strength to carry on.


So often it seems,

We fail our blessings to see,

And often think why

Do things happen to me?


Then God gently reminds us

Of folks that we know

That have far more problems

As through life they go.


So I'll seek God in prayer

When  frustrations come my way

And count not my losses

But my blessings each day!

STORMS OF FEAR

Storms of fear

Sometimes floods the soul

And it does not matter

If you're young or old.


Terror will grip us

In the dead of night

And we long for

Day's sweet light.


We find storms of fear

On the evening news

It will set our minds

To feeling the blues


So turn of the news 

Turn to God when afraid

He's always there

To give us aid!
