Welcome to my Garden:
These were my dad's Gibson instruments. In his hand's, he
could make music with all four in my hand's I could only
make noise!

A MASTER CRAFSTMAN

A master craftsman,
The tools of his trade.
Are love, mercy and grace.
And courage, to walk unafraid.

A master craftsman,
Constantly works for perfection.
He hones his craft,
With the greatest protection.

A master craftsman,
Has the lightest touch.
He guides his hand,
His craft, he loves so much.

A master craftsman,
Jesus Christ, tis He.
For His craft, He gave all...
He died for you and for me!

Welcome to my Garden!
Today is our lovely, daughter-in-law, Chris' birthday.
She has certainly been "a companion on the road," for
our son, John.

A COMPANION ON THE ROAD

A companion on the road,
We all need, you see.
A companion on the road,
A blessing for you and me.

A companion on the road,
When life gets very tough.
A companion on the road,
When the way gets rough.

A companion on the road
When we lose our way.
A companion on the road,
To be our very stay.

A companion on the road,
For whatever life will be.
A companion on the road,
Jesus Christ, tis He!

Welcome to my Garden:

TAKE TIME TO LISTEN:

Take time to listen...
To a bird's sweet song.
Take time to listen...
As you travel on.

Take time to listen...
To what your children say.
Take time to listen...
For they soon grow away.

Take time to listen...
When friends need to talk.
Take time to listen...
In your daily walk.

Take time to listen...
The world needs a tender ear.
Take time to listen...
God is always near.

Welcome to my garden:
Hate and bitterness, sometime shown in demonstrations are
some of the enemies of faith.

ENEMIES OF FAITH

Enemies of faith...
Can be fortune and fame.
Gossip and slander,
That will ruin a good name.

Enemies of faith...
When we put things off till tomorrow,
have unrealistic dreams,
That bring about sorrow.

Enemies of faith...
Those who will not believe
God's everlasting love
And the blessing they can receive.

Enemies of faith...
Those filled with hate and bitterness,
Who cheat and lie
And will steal  our happiness!

This is our grandson Jeremy, at his Eagle Scout Ceremony
and our daughter, Janet pinning on his badge, with his proud
dad, Richard looking on. Jeremy earned his badge doing
a project for at the school where Jnet taught.
Time does get away, he is now a doctor in the army and a husband
and father.

PEOPLE WANT TO SEE THAT YOU CARE

People want to see that you care,
Before they want to hear what you say.
They want you to listem to their troubles,
Help them find a better way.

People want to see that you care,
About the burdens they bear.
So be understanding and attentive,
They want you to know they are there.

People want to see that you care,
A visit, a not to convey....
That you are thinking of them
And hoping they have a good day.

People want to see that you care,
You must fill their hunger, you see.
Before you can fill the soul...
With words of God an eternity!

Welcome to my Garden!
The unexpected surprise for someone is always fun.
This is our granddaughter, Katie, when she was small.
She is seeing herself for the first time in the princess
dress that I made her for er birthday.

ThE UNEXPECTED

The unexpected...
We can't control.
The unexpected...
Worries the soul.

The unexpected...
Brings  some fear.
The unexpected...
We find God near.

The unexpected...
Comes day by day.
The unexpected...
We must pray.

The unexpected...
We tunderstand.
The unexpected...
Is in God's hand!
