School Days

As school days again draw nigh
And summer whispers soft “good-bye”,
May the children prosper well
And in classrooms safely dwell.

Lord, guard this future generation,
That they might gain much strong foundation,
And will choose to do what’s right.
In them, Lord, high goals ignite.

“Train up a child in the way he should go:
and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
Proverbs 22:6   KJV

In the Lord's presence refreshing is found,
For there  do so many rich benefits abound.
His healing flows forth as a bubbling stream
To wash away fears and tiredness to redeem.

Drink from these waters, your soul to revive,
So energy and purpose in you start to thrive.
Be washed in His goodness - your time is well spent.
The change which occurs will be "Heaven-sent”.

"He leadeth me beside the still waters.  
He restoreth my soul..."
Psalm 23:2-3   KJV

May waves of goodness cross our land,
Washing us from shore to shore,
Healing woundedness and scars,
Bringing unity and more.

For goodness overshadows pain,
Offsetting anxiousness and fear,
Building bridges which are strong
And causing strife to disappear.

"Do not let yourself be overcome by evil,
but overcome (master) evil with good."
Romans 12:21   Amplified Bible

In the presence of the Lord is overflowing joy…
Oasis of deep celebration, which will be a buoy
To lift us up above the plane of normal, daily toil…
Refreshing which is healing, as a fragrant, soothing oil.

His presence will transform our days
With ease which heals and will amaze.
His thoughts will change our daily view,
And in Him we’ll find fresh breakthrough.

“Thou wilt shew me the path of life:
in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy
right hand there are pleasures for evermore.”
Psalm 16:11   KJV

Abundant Grace

My hope is in the Lord,
For earthly things are frail.
I know He’ll keep His eye on me.
In Him I will not fail.

His grace is so abundant
And will help me carry through.
When I trust and lean on Him
He covers all I do.

He guides me and He spurs me on
And strengthens me to stand.
I can rest within His grace.
My life is in His hand.

“And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee:
 for my strength is made perfect in weakness.”
II Corinthians 12:9   KJV

A Fruitful Tree

I want to be a fruitful tree
And bring forth fruit continually.
Let my leaf and blossom grow
And fragrance sprinkle to and fro.

I want to drink from holy streams
And meditate on Godly “themes”.
Let my spirit not grow old
But to God’s tenets keep firm hold.

I will prosper and drink deep.
All God’s wisdom I will keep
That I might be a fruitful tree
And bear good fruit continually.

“Blessed is the man...whose delight is in the law of the Lord; and
in his law doth he meditate day and night.  And he shall be
 like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth
 forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not
 wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.”
Psalm 1:1-3   KJV

With each dawn I seek the Lord,
Knowing He will bring reward.
What He shares will be a gift…
His wisdom always brings a lift!

His perspective births fresh joy
And is a constant “upward” buoy...
Encouragement beyond the norm,
Our days with beauty to transform.

“My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord;
In the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.”
Psalm 5:3   KJV

Spreading Light

Let our words be as bright light,
“Good” in others to excite,
Planting seeds with rich potential
Which will become consequential….

Inspiration for the heart….
A bright, new outlook to impart,
That others too will want to share
And of God’s goodness be aware.

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see
your good works, and glorify your Father which is in haven.”
Matthew 5:16   KJV

If you’re weary and need rest
From work or worry or constant test,
The Lord will help you to rebound.
In Him is rest which is profound.

Do not have angst, for He is near.
He’ll lift you up and bring you cheer.
Rest in Him and be at peace.
In Him you will find release.

“He leadeth me beside still waters. 
He restoreth my soul.”
Psalm 23:2-3    KJV

A New-Found Ease

The Lord will transform how we “see”.
His perspective keeps us free.
In Him is clear understanding
When trivial things become demanding.

Our clarity becomes precise
And makes our thoughts much more concise.
Our days are laced with peace and ease,
Many tensions to appease.

“Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where
the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.”
II Corinthians 3:17   NKJ
