Your Dreams

The facts can take away 
Your dreams .
Faith will not take away
Your dreams .
Do not let the facts take 
You out of your dreams .
You need to choose faith
Not the facts .
Things can come alive inside .
You need to believe .
Faith is not limited by the facts .
The facts are one thing .
God is for you 
All you have to do 
Is believe .
Do not let the facts
Talk you out of your dreams .

Be Humble

You should practice humility 
Before God .
I once adapted a daily pattern 
Of kneeling in prayer 
To show reverence to God .
Now at my age when I kneel 
My knees have pain ,
But I still come before the Lord 
In humility ,
Because seeing beyond my physical 
Posture to my heart .
Whether I sit , stand or kneel 
I can focus my worshiping 
Heart on God .
God desires humility from all of us 
But humility does not always
come naturally .
Oh always try to be humble .

What Is Your Job

Whatever you do,
Work at it with all your heart .
Any job you have to do 
Gives you an opportunity 
To reflect His presence in your life .
No task is to small or to big .
You need to tackle your responsibilities 
Whatever they may be with joy .
Creativity and excellence 
Gives you an opportunity to influence 
Those around you no matter your job .

To Comfort

When I try to comfort someone ,
I should have one goal 
In mind that is restoration 
Not embarrassment .
My time with God has transformed me .
Jesus helps me not to miss opportunities
And to encourage my brothers and sisters .
Remember , one thing we all have given 
Christ countless reasons over time not to love us 
None of them changed his mind .
Remember , God will be with us 
When we come to our destiny .
God will comfort us all for he loves us always .

Help From Heaven

SOS is the Morse code signal .
It is an urgent cry for help .
If you are in the midst 
Of a challenging situation 
You can send an SOS to God .
God will help you the best way .
He will respond to your call 
For help and he will fight for you .

A Sunrise

As I look out my window 
To see the house across the (alley ) street
Backlit by the amazing sunrise .
The sky was a deep orange with a soft peach .
A dense pink cloud was streaked with a vivid yellow ,
And the blue of the sky 
Appeared through the gaps in the cloud .
The magnificent scene inspired gratitude 
And a sense of awe and wonder in me .
It drew my focus to my Creator 
And to Christ the light of the world 
Who shines love on me every day 
As the colors of the sunrise begin to fade ,
I can face each day with gladness 
And hope and with joyful knowledge 
That I have a faithful God 
Whose mercies are fresh every morning .

Be Faithful

The church is a place of mercy 
Freely given where everyone 
Can feel love , forgiveness 
And encouraged to live the life 
Of the gospel as spoken in church .
In a world torn by strife 
God's people may shine forth 
As a prophetic sign of unity ,
Refugees and those exiled 
From their home land 
That they may receive a special 
Loving welcome 
For those burdened by poverty ,
Hardship , oppression and persecution .
God will rescue and lift them up .
May we all rely on the grace of God 
In all our moments of weakness .
