The Best Path

How much more simple... the best goal of all...
Is traveling through life at a God-ordained speed,
Pausing for purpose and times rich in Him,
And bypassing times where He would not lead.

He may have us linger where we might pass by,
For wisdom is hidden where we may not see;
But always His leading will make us complete
And able to grow into who we should be!

"To every thing there is a season, and a time
to every purpose under the heaven."
Ecclesiastes 3:1   KJV

Unique And Special

When sometimes we trip or may even fall,
Our God is there to help us with all.
If suddenly there is an unforeseen turn,
In Him is wisdom to gather and learn.

As we trust in Him He keeps us on track.
He then will guide us so we don't have lack.
In Him our lives are rich and defined,
Unique and special and one-of-a-kind.

"The Lord will perfect that which concerns me."
Psalm 138:8   Amplified Bible

Rich Waters

When God intercepts our thinking.
From rich waters we are drinking...
Wisdom's glorious depths to know
With blessings which will overflow...

Replacing concepts which are worn,
Causing newness to be born.
Every tiny thought He brings
In our lives with beauty rings.

"Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord,
and whose hope the Lord is.  For he shall be
as a tree planted by the waters, and that
spreadeth out her roots by the river, and
shall not see when heat cometh, but her
leaf shall be green; and shall not be
careful in the year of drought, neither
shall cease from yielding fruit."
Jeremiah 17:8   KJV

Bright Inspiration

The Lord brings newness and refreshing
When we're down or need a lift.
His wisdom and His loving care
Every day are as a gift.

Remember always to look up.
In Him is hope, in Him is light.
His inspiration in each day
Brings expectation which is bright.

"Every good gift and every perfect (free, large
 full) gift is from above; it comes down
from the Father of all (that gives) light,
in (the shining of) Whom there can be no
variation (rising or setting) or shadow
cast by His turning (as in an eclipse)."
James 1:17  Amplified Bible

Precious Times

Time with the Lord sets the tone of the day
With colorful, quality thoughts we can weigh,
Echoing warmly in all that we do,
Adding new viewpoints which we can pursue.

The thoughts He will bring offset the blasé,
Adding gold to our lives in a bountiful way.
Cherish these times, for they will bring change,
Overflowing with blessings and wisdom long-range.

"The Lord is good unto them that wait for
him, to the soul that seeketh him."
Lamentations 3:25   KJV

Mountain Tops Of Praise

This morning I was reading in my old-and-tattered copy
of the Amplified Bible and re-discovered a word the
Lord had given me quite a few years ago, which
I had written in the back of the Bible, concerning worship
and praise. And it impacted me today all over again.
May this be an encouragement and blessing for many...

"As you stand in the mountain tops of praise, I will
take away the valleys of frustration and make green
the plateaus of endurance."

"Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness."
Psalm 29:2   NKJ

Never Alone

The Lord is our resource for every need
For direction and wisdom in how to proceed.
His reassurance will save us much error
And of higher calling will make us aware.

He leads us in ways which sometimes surprise,
In steps which are new and greater in size,
Always to stretch us and cause us to grow,
His faithful caring and love to bestow.

"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want."
Psalm 23:1   KJV

Refreshing

We can have joy and deep peace within,
Escape from the noise of worldly din,
If we will stay focused on that which is good
And honor our God, as we always should.

Refreshing will follow and blessing come near,
Bringing serenity, calmness and cheer...
Relief for the soul and freedom from stress,
A pattern of living which we can possess.

"Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things
are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever
things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely,
whatsoever things are of good report: if there
be any virtue, and if there be any praise,
think on these things."
Philippians 4:8   KJV

Daily Perspective

Because of life's pace our minds are too full,
But daily it's wise to leave time and space
For God to add thoughts which bypass our own,
Enriching our lives and blessing our pace.

In Him we have balance, direction and peace...
Dimension which lifts us above daily fray.
How much we might miss if He isn't part
Of all our perspective throughout every day.

"Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which
thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to
us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in
order unto thee:  if I would declare and speak
of them, they are more than can be numbered,"
Psalm 40:5   KJV

A Faithful Friend

Wisdom is a faithful friend,
Inspiration for each day,
Lifting us above the norm
In all we do and all we say!

Of wisdom there is endless depth
Which we can live by and explore.
Always we should gather more
And with her keep a close rapport.

"Exalt her (wisdom), and she shall promote
thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when
thou dost embrace her.  She shall give to
thine head an ornament of grace: a crown
of glory shall she deliver to thee."
Proverbs 4:8-9   KJV
