Trust The Lord
Help
His Glory
I’m Outa Here
Triumph in Trials
I sit here in the hospital
And my thoughts go out to those
Who question why they’d be in such a place
And I can’t help but realize
That many of us choose
To think that these things come through lack of faith
I will beg to differ though
When trials and tests do come
That lack of faith is not the cause at all
I have a loving Father
Who knows His plan for me
At every turn I’m asked to hear His call
I know beyond a doubt He has a plan for me
And I know His plan is always for my good
So if He’s decided I should go through cancer in my life
Then I know He’s the one who’ll see me through
You might ask why a loving God would bring this upon me
How can good come out of something that can kill
Well let me take a moment to tell you what He’s done
In this short time while He has kept me still
Prayers have been answered all over the world
From friends I have both here and overseas
Building up their faith for battles that will come
Battles that by prayer will see defeat
The poems I have written have reached around the globe
Thousands upon thousands have been touched
This ministry is growing to edify the church
It witnesses of His great love for us
The testimony that this trial will one day give to me
I will share with everyone I know
Because of His great mercy, that spared me from the worst
TI can shout that He has carried be right through
And last is the fact that healing will come
And the glory will all go to Him
And others will be lifted up in their faith
And our enemy will never win
So sing out His praises when trial arise
Lift up His name and look to the skies
Your redeemer will help you and faith He’ll supply
As you rest in His loving arms
I Stand Amazed
There are many thing in earth
That take my breath away
Every day I can observe
The marvels that come my way
From the brilliant sun at dawn
To the colors of sun set
The birds melodious song
And the flowers powerful scent
Then I think about my body
And the way it’s carefully made
There is no other copy
Unique in all it’s ways
All these things bring wonder
To my big imagination
I marvel as I ponder
The vastness of creation
It’s awesome, Oh, so awesome
That God would care so much
To give us this great earth
So He could stay in touch
But even more than awesome
Is the love He has for me
That He would give His son
To take my sin from me
So now I stand amazed
At all that He has done
But I truly am in awe
Of His abiding love
In response to the Daily Prompt Awe
My Lord Divine
Awesome Grace
I can’t imagine
What God will do today
Every day is a new miracle
When I trust His way
Nobody ever knows
The blessings that will come
When I yield to His spirit
And trust in His love
Today might bring trials
That challenge my faith
Designed so I’ll run
To His awesome grace
Sickness may come
In the midst of the night
Will I trust on His healing?
To end my plight?
Friends might desert me
And ruin my name
It’s then I need Jesus
To weather the pain
Days are not always
Blessings and joy
There are times in the valley
When we need to grow
So God allows these things
To strengthen our faith
If we’ll only just trust
In His awesome grace
Take Aim
I cannot imagine life without God
I cannot imagine not knowing His touch
I cannot imagine not knowing His love
I cannot imagine it at all
Truth is, I used to be there
Living without God
Living in an aimless life of sin
I didn’t have much hope
In what the future held
And I surely had no lasting peace within
But then I met the Savior
Jesus is His name
He gave His life to take away my sin
But more than that He promised
That He’d prepared a plan
So I would not go aimlessly again
If your destination
Is not so clear to you
And aimless is your life’s detour
Then why not come to Jesus
And see His plan for you
Take aim at being all He made you for
