A Gift of Words

Words we speak will make an impact.
Measure carefully what you say.
Filled with kindness and with tact
You may brighten someone's day.

Let your words be as a gift,
Full of wisdom, full of cheer.
What you speak can give a lift
To many folks who may come near.

"A man has joy in making an apt answer, and a word spoken at the right moment - how good it is!"          Proverbs 15:23  Amplified Bible

Always There

No matter what may set us back,
In our God we have no lack.
He will bow to help us up
And always will re-fill our cup.

He will help us move ahead
And for our "gloom" bring joy instead.
He is faithful... always there.
All our burdens He will bear.

"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.  He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.  He restoreth my soul."
Psalm 23:1-3   KJV

In God's Presence

To sense God's softness in the dew
Or richness in a brilliant hue...
To hear Him speaking in a breeze
And feel deep down His peace and ease...

Being fine-tuned opens eyes
And causes us to realize
The fullness of His profound presence
And to give Him heartfelt reverence.

"Every day will I bless thee: and I will praise thy name for ever and ever."
Psalm 145:2   KJV

Lightheartedness Wins

Lightheartedness will lift a load
And introduce a pleasant mode,
Leaving weightedness behind.
With joy and laughter it's entwined!

It refuses to look down
And just will not allow a frown!
It has made a choice to smile
And has a truly lovely style!

"A merry heart doeth good like a medicine..."     Proverbs 17:22   KJV

Keeping Clear Focus

Even good things can distract
From keeping focused thoughts intact.
Creativity may scatter
And cause loss of thoughts which matter.

Distractions may be very small
But cause good order just to stall.
Move ahead... don't give them space,
For surely they will slow your pace.

"Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established."
Proverbs 16:3   KJV

You are special... one of a kind!
Another like you no one can find.
God made you with unique design
So always you will beautifully shine.

You have promise which is bright
And talents which will bring delight.
God filled you with special treasure,
Overflowing with good measure.

"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well."       Psalm 139:14  KJV

Reaching Higher

When we rise early and we pray,
Gathering thoughts for a new day,
We find riches we can savor
And have promise of God's favor.

On these days when we reach higher
God will reach down and inspire,
Lifting us to Heaven's plane
Higher wisdom to attain.

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.  For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."
Isaiah 55:8-9   KJV

Your presence is a healing balm
And brings a soothing, inner calm,
Laced with beauty and with peace...
From all life's tensions, soft release.

As I rest I am made whole.
I feel Your touch deep in my soul.
Your restoration is a gift,
All life's weariness to lift.

"He leads me beside the still and restful waters.  He refreshes and restores my life (my self)."         Psalm 23:2-3   Amplified Bible

Whisper a Prayer

If you are down and feel no cheer,
Whisper a prayer... our God will hear.
He is so gentle and He truly cares.
He listens and answers our heart-felt prayers.

Be lifted up... receive His embrace
Of kindness and love and mercy and grace.
He'll not forget your soft, whispered prayer.
Whenever you call, He will be there

"For the Lord will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me....."        Psalm 42:8   KJV

Your  kindness is immeasurable,
Greater than the oceans wide,
That You should love and care for us,
And that in You we may abide.

May we serve you faithfully
And all our days Your love employ.
Oh, what glory that will be!
Oh, what overflowing joy!

"Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.  Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name."
Psalm 63:3-4   KJV
