Ever True

Leave a reply

 

Perhaps you don’t have peace today
Or your joy has just run out
Maybe hope has vanished
And your life is filled with doubt

Maybe trials and troubles
Are closing in real fast
You don’t know where to  turn to
And you wonder if you’ll last

There’s an open invitation
That is waiting just for you
Jesus  knocking on your heart
He wants to comfort you

Won’t you ask Him in today
With a simple little prayer
“Jesus come into my heart,
I’m trusting in your grace”

Now just thank Him for His peace
Though you may not feel it yet
Thank Him for His love
And he joy He’s fill you with

But most of all just thank Him
That He waited just for you
To accept His invitation
Now to Him be ever true

My Friend

I’ve never run a mile
Or even close to that
So thinking of a marathon
Is silly at it’s best

But when I run with Jesus
He endures until the end
A marathon of faith I’ll have
With Jesus as my friend

The Overflow

1 Reply

My life can be so simple
I’m just a normal guy
I often sit and wonder
And ask my own self why

Why would Christ die for me?
Why would He come to set me free?
Why would He love little old me?
Why oh why did He save me?

Then He shows me His great love
How exquisite it is
And He tells me it’s all mine
Now I belong to Him

And He blesses me each day
With so much I can’t contain
It overflows my life
And He fills me up again

My desire is that it flows
Out to you in words I write
May His love be known to all
As you read these words tonight

Recognize the Enemy

1 Reply

We see the birds, the stars, the trees
We see our friends and families
We see a happy, smiling face
We see an old familiar place

So many things do meet the eye
Each day we marvel at the sky
But unseen danger can befall
Our pride is hidden from us all

Please keep your mind and spirit free
To recognize this  enemy
Call on God to help you see
When pride is rising up in thee

Today is The Word!

The word that comes forth
From  my  mouth way to much
Is someday
I use this word often
To answer when I need to change
I need to be better at prayer
And doing devotions
But every time I try to
Make a change I put it off

So I have decided
That someday needs to be
Today
I’m tired of my old routine
So I’m changing it now
I’ll get out my prayer list
When I awake in the morning
Then take time in the word
So I can draw closer to Him

No more someday for this guy
Someday has just bit the dust
Someday is gone from my word choice
Today is the word that I’ll trust

Fallen Tribe

Leave a reply

It’s really quite ridiculous
That sometimes I give in
To what my flesh desires
And I let the devil win

The fight is so uneven
With God right by my side
The power of the universe
Against a fallen tribe

I really need to walk with God
Throughout all of my days
He will keep me going right
By His amazing grace
