God’s Blessings

There are days I wish I could change 

Something’s 

That happens in the past .

I know there is a reason 

The rear view mirror 

Is so small 

And the windshield is so big .

Where you are headed

Is much more important 

Than what you left behind .

I know if I am right 

No one remembers .

If I am wrong 

No one forgets .

I know my storms 

Are only temporarily 

But God’s blessings

Last forever 

So I will keep moving forward .

To Pray

To those who kicked me down

When I was down ,

To all my enemies ,

To those who laughed at me ,

To those who never encouraged me.  

Or I was told I was not able ,

To all of those who have stopped believing 

In the power of prayer ,

To those who have stopped feeling 

God’s presence in their lives ,

To all those who hide

From the calls of God ,

To those who are afraid to live or die ,

To those who have no one to pray for them ,

I will pray for all of you .

I pray because we all belong to God 

And everything of Gods 

Is special , sacred and worthy

Of my prayers .

His Words

Throughout his ministry ,

Jesus used his own words 

To welcome the outcast  ,

Comfort the afflicted 

And speak up for the oppressed .

He never berated or belittled 

His attackers .

He gave me a well trained tongue 

I pray to have the courage 

To follow his example every day.

My Name

My name like the life 

I have been given 

Is an incredible gift .

I have been called  Brian ,

Briney  , The Brain and Brock 

And I will be known 

By those names 

My entire life .

I am not a number .

I am not a random person 

Or a cog in a human wheel .

I am unique and powerful 

In my own way .

I am 1 of a kind  .

I am powerful as a child of God ,

Call me Lord and I will listen .

                   I Love You All

The Wise One

 A wise person I know told me 

Always be ready to be alone .

Some people suddenly or not so suddenly 

Change .

Today you are important to them ,

Tomorrow you are not ,

This is the real life  .

You can not force anyone to hear

Let alone understand what you are saying 

And they are not ready 

Yet to even receive  . 

But the wise one  said 

You must never underestimate  the power 

Of planting a seed into someone .

The seed may grow faster 

Within someone you live  

So plant a seed and pray everyday

And the seed will grow .

Take A Stand

            

Take a stand for what is right 

When things come down hard 

On you and some days and nights 

The rain will come down harder .

God will be your umbrella

Remember every day 

As if it is your last .

Let go of the pain that people give you 

And forget the past .

Our time here is short 

And it will not last long 

So take a stand  that is right 

And be strong and proud 

And stand tall .

                           I Love You All

The Intimacy

To me the  intimacy 

And care  Jesus brings me

Is the sweetest miracle

Jesus leads me by the hand .

Jesus wants this private moment 

With me as if we are best friends .

                        I Love You All

Oh Smiley

Smile after a rain and appreciate

The sun .

Smile when you look at the sun 

And keep your attitude bright .

Smile with happiness to keep your spirit

High .

Smile with pain so that even the smallest 

Of joy will seem larger .

Smile so your loss will be appreciated

With what you posses .

Smile with enough hellos 

To get you through the last good bye .

Keep smiling Smiley .

The Life Guard

When you feel like you are drowning  

In life

And some people hurt you 

And you realize they just do not care .

They are not affected about 

What they did to you 

And they go about their life .

Remember the strongest people

Make time to help your

Even if they are struggling 

With their own personal problems 

That is true love .

Remember the strongest  life guard 

Ever does walk on water 

And remember you are never alone .

                            I Love You All

A Moment Every Day

When I take a moment every day 

You know more than 1 !!

I quiet myself in prayer 

For then I am in the presence 

Of the one who created me on purpose .

Even if nobody else  believes 

That God did .

God gave his life for me .

When I take a special moment 

To thank God 

I am assured that there is 1

Who knows me and yes 

Sees me for who I am .

                  I Love You All
