In Or Out Of Season

New season set ahead
Old things have passed away

Just keep looking forward
Living life out each day

Even unknown that comes
Leading up into strife

Making the most of now
Set us up for changes

In or out of season
We need to rearrange

Do The Best You Can

A challenging day
As the dawn awoke

My eyes seem to hurt
As I seem to poke

About my day on through
One eye closed to rest

Did what I could do
Felt like had a test

Every day must go
Live out life each day

Do the best you can
Let  God guide the way

Until Again Life Does Turn

How do we go about life?
Where there seems to be no end

As when there's no place to turn
Why does it seem we won't win?

That throws us back some days

As we get back on the track
We manage from this time on

Until again life does turn
As if things appear yet gone

Test In Things We Should Know

There comes a time in life
Where we have to just know

Know what we think is right

Life has its go around
Tribulations in test

Test in things we should know
Know Jesus is our rest

Allow The Words To Flow

What can I write about
As I'm standing tall here?

My mind doesn't focus
It shouldn't bring this fear

Smoothly as on the go

About life's daily dues
Is like a routine check

Allow the words to flow
Don't worry, what the heck

Let Go Of Clutter

Can't keep everything
So some things must go

Sort out what's to stay

Dark rainy wet land at dawn

No light insight, look around

Break Away From What's Not So

At times, in need, turn away
From things not going any where

Like standing at a stand still
Not moving forward from there

Making no progress through time
Fix on moving on with it

Wait on God, then rest a bit

Going in cycles of time
Brings experiences learned

Break away from what's not so
Turn to things that heart so yearn.

Wondering what if
If doesn't work out?

What's there to do next?
Should I wait about?

Oh, just calm down there
Think of what to do

Speak to yourself
So you can go through

Put mind off worry
See things anew

Move into what's there
What's set before you

Life's A Journey

How strange it is
To find things out

Searching in life
Things come about

As those it was
For a reason

Cycles in life
Have their seasons

To live life out
To slow things down

Life's a journey
Let life be found

Keep On Believing

Keep walking by faith
Each step of the way

Think not the matter
Speak what the word says

Keep faith when speaking
Not seeing by sight

Changes come about
Just follow His light

No matter if here
No matter if there

Keep on believing
God really does care

Generations To Come

Freflections of the past
Memories fro today

Brings out some good feeling
That can head in our way

Treasured moments still live
As we pass them on down

Generations to come
Let them know what's been found

Early Morning Dawn

Early morning dawn
Awakes this new day

Clear blue skies appear
Fog soon fades away

Rain waters the land
Soaks into the ground

Early morning dawn
Fresh new start is found

Still This Shall Pass Away

Another storm comes to light
Darken skies become bright

Fast comes the rain on ground
Ligthening breaks silence's sound

Drama awakes its sleep
Life's storms don't want to keep

Still this shall pass away
Until again stormy day

Enjoying Each Day

How pleasant it is
To be at rest

The day is ending
Just had some tests

Trying to relax
This is so sweet

Getting mind off things
Other new thought greet

God is always good
In life's path shine

Enjoying each day
Every things fine

Hope Into Being

Fear of not knowing
Knowing what to do

Times of more trouble
Trouble that comes through

Being afraid of
Of what's not yet known

Come in believing
Believing God's word

Comforts the soul man
Man it's not absurd

God's word has power
Power that does bring

Hope into being
Being with the King

Just Slow The Pace

Doing too much
Need to slow down

Now stop to think
Listen, how sound

Why complaing?
We choice to do

Sort out our dos
Take time, go through

What's important?
So start from there

Just slow the pace
Enjoy, take care
