Satisfied

Maybe it’s a movie
Maybe it’s a show
Maybe it’s the sunshine
Maybe it’s the snow

Maybe it’s a puzzle
Maybe it’s a song
Maybe it’s a little dog
Who wants to tag along

Maybe it’s a comedy
Maybe drama reigns
Maybe it’s a talk show
That makes you smile again

We all have tings we turn to
That entertain our iives
For me I turn to Jesus
Because He satisfies

He satisfies my mind
With wisdom for my life
He satisfies my heart
With love that is alive

He satisfies my soul
With joy and inner peace
He satisfies me fully
As He my life does keep

If you need something fresh
To entertain you more
Jesus is the one you need
Today make Him your Lord

 

In response to the daily prompt Entertain

Electrified

There are many things we old onto
Our possessions and friends are the first
Our dreams and desires
The jobs where we’rre hired
All fill the memories we thirst

In my life I’ve found all that matters
Is embracing the one who saved me
I will cling to the cross
Like static on cloth
His mercy electrifies me

 

 

n response to the daily prompt Static

Gratitude

When I think of how He loved me
Before I first loved Him
It evokes a sense of gratitude inside
His mercy came and found me
His love has set me free
In Him I know I’ll always abide

When I think of how He saved me
Delivered me from hell
It evokes a thunderous shout of highest praise
Glory Hallelujah
Worthy is the Lamb
I’ll lift my voice to worship His sweet name

Valuable Time

It seems that my time is fleeting
The day’s gone before it begins
Then when I look back
It seems that I lack
Anything that would last in the end

I observe how my day proceeded
To see if there’s something I missed
The thought came to mind
I did not carve time
To spend with my Savior and Lord

I bow down and make a commitment
That upcoming days I will change
I’ll start out the day
With prayer and with praise
Then my time will have value again

Swift Storms

I watch as ships go sailing by
Waves undulate below them
The crew members are calm and sure
The water tends to soothe them

Storm clouds gather in the west
They travel swiftly eastward
The undulation of the waves
Begins to toss them forward

The swiftness of the storm was fierce
And waves capsized their ship
As far as they were out to see
The ship was not equipped

My life can mimic this short tale
The storms can come upon me
My faith can undulate with doubt
That God will come and save me

But if my faith is placed in Christ
He will equip me daily
He’ll calm the sea and give me peace
When trouble comes to me

 

 

In response to the daily prompt Undulate

All of My Days

My life was not always so joyful
Peace has just recently come
I could not find rest
Until I was blessed
By knowing that Jesus had won

Before I knew Him I was lonely
Forlorn in my sinful ways
His mercy found me
His grace set me free
Now I’ll have Him all of my days

Do you know that Jesus loves you
That He died on the cross for your sins
Ask Him today
To take yours away
Then peace and joy will reign within

The Narrow Way

I can’t describe the feeling
Of growing close to God
I started at a distance
The way to him seemed broad

But as I traveled further
I found the narrow way
I found myself grow nearer
To Jesus every day

The closer I grew to him
It seemed less like a tunnel
Because the way got tighter
It felt more like a funnel

The light was there to greet me
When I reached His saving grace
Out I came and ready
My friends and foes to face

The journey trough that funnel
Prepared me for this day
So I can share the gospel
And lead folks in his way

 

 

In response to the daily prompt Funnel

Stay Calm

If you want to gain
A sure sense of peace
Then don’t let tomorrow creep in
Today’s all you’ve got
So give that to God
His grace is a timely free gift

He does not give more
Than you need for today
Until the next day has come
So don’t fret or worry
And don’t be distressed
He’ll give what you need to stay calm

 

In response to the daily prompt Timely

It Moves!

I never before have announced
Something special in one of my rhymes
But today I am breaking tradition
‘Cause I want to announce this on time

I’m pleased to let all of you know
This bad shoulder I’ve had for a year
Has now started to move on it’s own
In response to all who gave prayer

So I thank you with all my heart
For the prayers you have said for me
This cancer will certainly pass
Since we all have the faith to believe

 

In response to the daily prompt Pleased

Eyes Wide Open

So many people follow
The words of mortal man
No question if it’s truth
They move at their command

It seems they wander blindly
The path laid out for them
By those who could not care less
If they lose or if they win

I’ve made my big decision
My eye’s are open wide
I’m going to follow Jesus
His word will be my guide

No blindness in His message
No question of the truth
The victory lies in His hands
He loves me through and through
