Resting, Still Waiting

Resting, still waiting, Dawning of new day
Newness in coming, Healing on its way

Waiting and waiting, Believe that it's so
His rays of beauty, Ancient days of old

Jesus, the Healer, We're forever bless
On His promises, In Him, we find rest

All in due timing, His Word comes to past
Keep standing, waiting, From start till the  last

Believe that its so, By faith not by sight
Resting, still waiting, Quite in His light

On This Quiet Day

Mind drifting away, On this quiet day
Trying to keep focus, Going on my way

Now catching myself, Wondering away
Try to keep awake, Yawning as I pray

Still in quietness, My mind on display
Happy thanksgiving, Being as it may

Trying to keep focus, Going through this day
Mind drifting onward, Hoping won't stray

Rethinking this time, What's past? as I lay
Awake, forgiven, On this quiet day

In Cluttered Thinking

In cluttered thinking, Needing to push through
These tingled feelings, Making me unglued

Needing some balance, Life's journey must do
Every day living, Learning something new

Got to keep moving, From what we foresee
Caught in His presence, Perfect place to be

Endure to the end, Those things set in view
In cluttered thinking, Learning something new

The Journey Begins

The journey begins, Sacred time now here
Picking up my cross, Jesus drawing near

As I draw to Him, Every time aware
Daily His presence,  Believing He cares

Been known in lifetime, Hoping to press on
New mind set onward, Awakens the dawn

New beginnings flow, Look beyond what's next
Having to regroup,  It's not in context

Shaking out the past, Pressing on ahead
The journey begins, Being Spirit lead

Not able to bare, What's not being shown

Still filling the air, Not picking up sound
Silence lingers by, No words to be found

Awaken my soul, Not to be afraid

Making all things new, Better then before

Crossing over more, Live by faith, not shown

Comes by surprise, Quicker then a blink

Right now, all is well, Next minute it's not
Cycles of cycles, Tied up in a knot

Strange in its doing, Moving like a string

Pattern as it may, Not straining in a line
But, standing, this way, Not as so define

Hovering a while, Yet, floating about  
As though its glowing, And not going out

It's so amazing, To see what's to see
Strange in its doing, Thought come upon me

It's blowing my mind, Wondering, How's this?
Don't know what to think, It looks like a disc

Focus on Jesus, His cross, way back when

Don't waste given time, Have some plans always

Map out what doing, Make the moments count

Awaken to life, Blessings of each day

Loud in its offset, Such a great wonder

Thunderstorm season, Stormy weather comes
Thundering Winter, Pouring rainy, hum

Springtime with snowfall, Summertime cold spells
Fall time Summertime, Places where we dwell

In time, in season, Have a place to be
But stuck in weirdness, Having that place, see

Such a great wonder, Seasons all we see

Sadness settles in, Lost for words  to speak
For what's on inside, Causing to be weak

Not able to do, Not able to hear
Trying very hard, Need not be in fear

But, able to feel, And able to be
Listening to what's said, Just if, I could see

No end to matters, As though  getting worst
Cycles of doings, As though been rehearsed

In a fallen world, Lost for words to speak
Sadness settles in, While in storm, we'll seek

Thinking About Life

Thinking about life,
Things that causes strife

Those simple matters,
Bringing life's scatters

Where brokenness comes
Conversations numb

No contacts again
Nor if will attend

Joining as a group
Doing nonsense loops

Avoiding issues
Who cares? We miss you

Not making a fuss
But, wanting to trust

Be a helping hand
No trouble, Amen.

Thinking about life
Deceasing, the strife

Peace calming the storms, In life passing by
Waves from the wayside, Seeing eye to eye

Issues reflecting, Matters we deny
If it will come near, Under or on high

Wondering, thinking, How life use to be
Changes are coming, Brought me to my knees

How to keep going? Rage coming about
Still small voice inside, But heard like a shout

Rivers following in, Quieting my soul
Peace calming the storms, Where God's river flows

Of light who's within, Our being insight

Will we pass the test? Will we show out clout?

Another Turn Comes

Another turn comes, This day giving birth
As the newness dawns, Awaken the earth

Moving about way, Discover, explore
Each day passing year, Go not been before

Yet, still awaken, In shadow of doubt
Another day goes, Still moving about

Looking back over, As coming to rest
Awaiting the night, Believing the best

Of what yet, to come, And what's not, still here
Another turn comes, Every single year

Awaken Beauty

Awaken beauty, Sleepy look ahead
Though feeling awake, Getting out of bed

Beginning again, For yesterday gone
Leaving what has past, And keep moving on

Another year comes, Another year goes,
Longing to get where? Yet nobody knows

So we must trust God, Leading us to go
Unto the unknown, In tune with the flow

Beginning again, Sleepy look ahead
Awaken beauty, Being Spirit led

Quiet And At Rest

Sitting in my room, Quiet and as rest
No sound to be heard, Thinking of the best

Of what's now present, And what's yet to come
Believing God's hears, Feeling, so awesome

Still, sitting in room, At rest, quiet still
Wondering about, Life, living God's will

Praying and waiting, Heard no sound to be
Awaken spirit, Get down on your knees

Be thankful at peace, Believing God's hears
Quiet and at test, Love cast out all fear

Mind Wondering Still

Mind wondering still, Morning hour this day
Awaken tired, Sleepy as I lay

Mind still wondering, Yawning as I stay
At the edge of bed, Need not to delay
On what's important, Going about way
Resting, regrouping, As I set to pray

For strength going through, Not to go astray
But, focus on now, And what's on display

Time slipping me by, Don't know why delay
Mind wondering still, Sitting while I pray

Rechecking some things, That has slipped me by
How did I miss this? I wonder, but, Why?

Need not to worry, Nor bring on a fret
Some things do happen, need to have mind set

Keep pressing forward, To what lays ahead
Keep going onward, Being Spirit led

Review, look back, On life's journey road
Don't worry nor fret, Give God heavy loads

Press on with the LORD, From time take some leaps
Rechecking some things, But, not go to deep

Another milestone, Memories that last
Recording goodness, Of things that have past

Good to look back on, While pressing ahead
Thanking, rethinking, Re reading what read

Noticing what's missing, Overlooking things
But, needing to look, See what this joy brings

In finding out more, Uncovering what's lost
History passing,  Yet, time has no cost

But, priceless in sense, Memories that last
Another milestone, On things that past

Believing the best, From what's then was told

Discovering things, Once through was long lost
So happy to find, Insight with a cost

Away with doubting, What though wasn't so
Yet searching for more, Lead from what's to know

From what was passed down, To generations
To share the stories, From generations

For what that was told, To what now has come
Still on the journey, Been pretty awesome

Sadden, crushed, broken, Thinking, What about?

Celebrating Life

Celebrating life, In ways that should be
Full in abundance, God's love as we see

Those surrounding us, Expressing in ways
Going about life, With all in our days

Cherishing moments, Not to waste away
Treasure the time sent, Beauty, God displays

In the time we have,  With one another
Celebrating life, Sisters and brothers

Drifting along ways, From days pasting,gone
Distant memories, Don't know what with wrong

Forgiven, forgotten, Singing brand new songs
Believing, hoping, Faith being made strong

Jesus, trail journey, In lifetime we do
Awaken to bedtime, Along pathway through

Seeing, exploring, Discovering who?
Drifting along ways, Becoming anew

Learn To Be Quiet

Learn to be quiet, Not  a sound be heard
Resting be at ease, Muttering God's word

Medicine to soul, Partaking each dose
His presence therein, The more we should boast

On life's road traveled, God won't let us go
Whatever we do, He wants us to grow

In our life's struggles, In prayer by night
Learn to be quiet, Seeking God's insight

Coldness In The Air

Coldness in the air,  Like strong Winter wind
Setting inward, Like having no end

Strange as it may sound, This weather by far
More unusual, How we think, we are

Better in our ways, Adjusting to air
As the season comes, The more we may bare

Time and time again, The Fall comes Winter
Along Spring's trail, Summertime sprinters

Come along and rest,  What matter? reasons
Coldness in the air, Comes in all seasons

Still wondering yet, Don't know where fit in

Believe God will come, More than what can see

Beyond where standing, Moved by faith yet seen
Feeling out of place, Resting in between

Searching through records, Yet, be uncovered

Lost records alive, Living as it be
Excited in knowing, But long yet to see

Beginning Again

Beginning again, Seeing things anew
Not as use to be, But, better, been through

With what once was than, Has far long been changed
Moving with the flow, Better to arrange

To begin again, Starting over new
Thinking, believing, There's a better you

Being birth, each day, As time goes along
Keeping with God's plan, Growing, being strong

In the things of God, Seeing things anew
Beginning again, Life's journey on through

Awaiting The Dawn

Awaiting the dawn, In this day of rest
Sun already down, Done my very best

Thinking wondering, New start awaits
Sunrise in morning, while night still up late

All prepared ahead, God's mercy still flows
Every morning past, Wherever I go

Awaiting, standing, What might to foresee
Long in the waiting, Resting as it be

In the dark of night, In prayer, at rest
Awaiting the dawn, In the dark, more less

It's Time To Reach Out

It's time to reach out, Touch another's heart
Let them know you care, A good place to start

Just right where you're at, The people surrounds
You, besides all that, Not making a sound

But, showing they care, Gesturing a smile
Words expressed from heart, Linger for a while

Deep within the soul, Awakens the heart
Great wonder; express, God's creation; art

So, full of beauty Let's connect, Let's live
It's time to reach out, Let's learn how to give

When Life Throws A Curve

When life throws a curve, Don't know what to do
Like out of nowhere, Didn't have a clue

Blinded by the light, Not seeing things straight
Exposed in darkness,  Reality, debate

Clarity to life, Can't believe, it's so
Thrush into no where, Believing, we know

We all have issues, We need not to fear
The Lord is with us, He loves us so dear

Remember He's there, In all that we do
When life throws a curve, God, please help us through

Holding On By Faith

Holding on by faith, What God has spoken
Whatever has come, Whatever been broken

For God knows what's best, In what comes our way
Keeping the faith life, Yearning how to pray

Whatever may come, Whatever may be
The glory of God, We all long to see

Here upon the earth, Coming from above
God's glory to be, Blessings and His Love

From wherever comes, Seated in this place
Holding on by faith, Seeking God, His grace

Into Another

Into another, Life's journey to past
A long the pathway, Beginning to last

Year; all the way through, From bottom to top
Making the most of , Not tending to stop

Keep on keeping on, Each and every year
From the first to last, The light, drawing near

To each day dawning, Awaken from sleep
Each day to lifetime, Happy times to weep

Life's journey to past, A long the pathway
Into another, Taking time to pray

Stepping Into Now

Stepping into now, Beginning anew
With a fresh new start, Doing what can do

Focusing on things, Looking a new way
A different angle, In viewing display

Things appear different, Not like use to be
Not getting mixed up, Looking what's to see

Going about way, Doing what's to do
Stepping into now, Beginning brand new

New Birth In Making

New birth in making, Choices to move on
Into the next thing, Still believing upon

By faith in Jesus, Who's making things new
Holding on by faith, With hope getting through

With love by my side, In life trials and all
Seeing not by sight, But by faith the call

Of God in my life, To keep on with Christ
Eternal life way, So precious and nice

New year set ahead, New birth in making
Holding on By faith, Hope not forsaken

Year Draws To A Close

Year draws to a close, Doing my last dues  
It's time to say bye, Believing way through

Into the new year, Awaiting to birth
What God will bring here, Coming down to earth

New doors opening, While another shuts
Longing to move on, Grateful that we met

Past, long behind me, Pressing on ahead
Hoping to become, More than what was said

Long journey over, Yet more left to say
Year draws to a close ,Counting out my days

Reached A Brand New Place

Reached a brand new place, Thinking how it's been?
At time in waiting, Don't know how long when

It's been since seen last, This joyful at rest
Not attached to things, Testing at my best

For now in waiting, Refreshing my thoughts
Rekindling memories, Embrace what it brought

Me here, where I stand, Moving in the flow
Life has its way ward, Things I'll never know

Open to new things, Set now before here
Reached a brand new place, Moving without fear

Good Feeling Inside

Good feeling inside, Finding out new leads
Searching more deeper, Thinking, what's the need?

To ask of others, How connected on the tree
Hoping they'll reply, And able to see

Where ancestors fit, The time, in places
Adding more info, Seeing more faces

To wonder amazed, A mystery to solved
If can with some help, Hoping to resolve

Searching more deeper, Where ancestors fit
Good feeling inside, Hoping this is it

Though Things Will End

Though some things will end, Real soon and long gone
Yesterday, history, Reflecting upon

What could have happened, Or what could we've changed
Need not to worry, Or think, that was strange

Let things be done with, Move on to what's next
Read Holy Scriptures, Getting the context

Focus on God's Word, Christ Jesus, the King
Come before Him now, Lift your voice and sing

Praises due His name, Reflecting upon
Though some things will end, Real soon and long gone

Drawing Closer, Still

Drawing closer, still, Leaving things behind
Moving on from past, Not crossing the line

Standing in the zone, And not looking back
Focusing on now, Not on what I lack

Nor what may have gain, Over time, here in
Learn from life's lessons, Rethinking of when

New beginnings rise, Old year put to rest
Some things have changes, That brings on each test
Rewards some prizes Awaiting each day
Drawing closer still Forever, new ways

Encountering Things

Encountering things, Not seen before now
God is still working, More than I know how

Long ago, back when, My thinking, wonder
If this could be so, Still making me ponder

Deeper on journey, As time comes along
Things not matching up, Thinking, Is this wrong?

Life is to be lived, With test along way
Getting back in line, Learning everyday

For the good or bad, Life continues on
Encountering things, From evening through dawn
