Preparing For Change

Preparing for change What's coming ahead?
Not knowing what's what Nor heard what was said

But keeping focus On Jesus His love
Believing He saves From His throne above

Watching and healing Restoring each soul
The ones He call His And making them whole

From what was once there Has changed made anew
That prepares us now In all that we do

Preparing for change In light  that's ahead
Jesus is the way That's what God has said

Reflections That Last

Day has come and gone, Reflections that last
Some good old laughter That lingered and past

Thoughts floating away In a day of thrill
From all that happened Something brought a chill

In all memoires The good is still here
Comfort of Jesus Showing that He cares

Though out each day dawn To nightfall that.s still
The most of life's good The least to say will

The joy that settles The good that's in heart
Smoothing the sorrow That hurts from the start

Memories cling in Mind won't go away
Hope from the Lord, Invest time to pray

Keep reflecting on The good that has come
Believing the best For the least is some

Things can't last long As we think they will
Reflections, that last Nightfall that's still

Things Shedding New Light

The night time fallen Things shedding new light
Not as yesterday Shimmer of the bright

So much going on In this world around
Crisis, death, chaos, Hearing many sounds

Terror stands near by Among the people, fear
Harm all around them Hoping Peace, be near

The Lord of all hope In what we go through
Peace like a river In midst of what's due

Calming the storm Weary in our souls
Comforting the pain Making us with hold

Coming into life As we're called to be
Not as yesterday From the light, we see

But by light of life Where the Lord, He brings
Things shedding new light New hope, faith that sings

All The Day On Through

Tired feeling so tired All the day on through
Not letting up much What more can I do?

But call the doctor, To see what's the deal
Tired feeling so tired, Wanting to be healed

Waiting and watching Feeling goes away
Putting hope in God, His grace is always

There for us receive It's by faith He gives
All the day on through It's through Him, we live

Reading God's Letter

Been a long, long day Got to get better
Over loading life Reading God's letter

Hoping for the best Making my way through
Matters of the heart Broken, weaken too

Don't know where to start Mending a lost soul
Deep down in my heart Praying, like I know

Jesus, hear my words Through life help me live
Life as a prayer From all what You'll give

In me and through me For I am, I'm Yours
To be a witness In all, I adore

Your Presence so rich In beauty there be
Upon Your people For all we'll still see

Your glory from glory Throughout all our days
Hoping for the best For now and always

Reading Your letters Matters of the heart
Restoring our lives From death as we start

Pressing On Some More

Pressing on some more Even though feel sick
On the go always Seem to be the stick

No resting in sight Always on the go
Needing to slow down, Still moving on though

Now sitting, thinking What  should I cut out?
Things do matter most Not outing out doubt

Be keeping in the flow Each day of the week
Pressing on some more Even as I speak

Time Is Running Out

Days are closing end Time is running out
Make room for more things Thinking what about?

Could this be ahead, Knowing it will be
Something yet anew Something yet to see

Hoping for the best Of what there to come
Pulling away more From things feeling numb

Awaken by day Night falling asleep
Deepen in the midst Crying as to weep

Each life unfolding As days closing end
Time is running out Each day we attend

How Life Has To Change

Thinking about things How life has to change
Not like use to be Yet, more out of range

Got to get use to What's coming ahead
Preparing, waiting, Needing hope instead

Of fear lingering Inside of my head
Life's roller coaster Things feeling of dread

Set mind in motion Not to look that way
Having hope in God Not to go astray

From what God had said And in what He'll do
Keep moving forward And pressing on through

Seeing some progress Making up this space
Things looking better God's amazing grace

Got to get use to Thinking about things
How life has to change God mercy He brings

Searching And Looking

Hoping to have leads On the family tree
Searching and looking To see what might be

But, not finding much Yet, still looking still
Not giving it up Going  as I will

To search around And see What I can
Thinking about things Believing I'll land

From what I have heard To what I found out
History of old With shadows, no doubt

If I can only Search, thinking there's more
To be found somewhere But, what to look for?

And how do I get there? Only if I knew
Where things were at first Along to the few

Not giving it up Believing there's more
Searching and looking I long to explore

Seeking Out Changes

Seeking out changes What I need to do?
Should I continue? Still,  have to go through

The trails, the testing That come everyday
No matter what comes It won't go away

Those troubles in life Those burdens we share
The hope for today To show that we care

About each other When life makes a turn
We have to adjust From those things we learn

Struggles and hardship Coming face to face
Don't know what to do But to seek God's grace

Be faithful in life And press on to end
Not being weary Blown about the wind

But standing in faith In Him, In His trust
Seeking out changes Each dawning till dust

Don't Know Where Going

Turned another page Gone another way
Don't know where going New year on display

Some changes now set Been knocked off my feet
What's going on here? No longer, we meet?

End of year nearing No howdy? so long?
Now what to look for? Thinking, what with wrong?

We care what  happened Yet still, keep going
Can't change decision In what's now showing

Got to get use to This light of new day
Don't know what happened Yet, we need to pray

And think of the best Not what we've think loss
Don't know where going, Nor know what it cost

Got to keep moving In this way we go
Don't know where going But, live in the know

Into The Story

Crossing sacred time Holy, set apart
Into the story Relived in our hearts

Christmas everyday We hear it foretold
God became a man To earth here below

Heaven where He came Dwelling among us
Lived a human life In God He was just

Through out His calling He set forth the plan
His death to free us His death Son of Man

Our lives, our being in, Redemption be saved
Coming before Him In offering we waves

In honor, we praise In hope we look for
His second coming In Advent and more

The cycle of life Giver of us all
Hearing His story We long to His call

Preaching the gospel The good news we share
About Christ Jesus The One who does care

Crossing sacred time, Holy set apart
Into the story relived in our hearts

Praying The Prayers

Coming to crossroad Standing, waiting still
Praying the prayers Want to do God's will

Think, What's going on With all there to do?
Can't focus onward Thoughts, how to get through?

At a crossing point Which way should I go?
Where do I go now? How long will I know?

Times are getting hard Things are getting low
Not much left to do How much more to go?

Got to keep moving, Got to change my ways
Making commitments  While I go to pray

Keeping a mind set On the things above
Focusing on God, Jesus my true love

Praying the prayers Resting in God's will
Standing at crossroad Waiting being still

God forever near Listening at heart
Praying the prayers Crafted works of art

We All Have Value

We all have value Important, we are
No greater than who Nor fame as a star

To get in heaven We all must repent
No matter what done Jesus, who God sent

To earth for us all In our sinning ways
In all that we do God sees on display

Made in God's image So precious are we
We all have value No if or maybe

Remember we're blessed For Jesus is true
We all have value Through all we go through

The Wonder Of Life

Living every day And longing to see

The beauty of now Presence tense that's here
Each moment that comes Sensing God so near

Closer than with thoughts Imagine there in
Hope for tomorrow On our knees we bend

To Almighty God Our total being
In prayer, we hide Waiting and seeing

God at work in us As we  go His way
The wonder of life God with us each day

Each day giving thanks For all He had done

And only One God Whom all have to bow
Before Him Only Past, future, right now

Praise Him giving thanks For He's King of all

Last Adam restores For all become lost

Always Having To Do

Tired feeling, so tired Always having to do
Like working non stop, With no vacation through

Keep on keeping on Each day going by
Pausing for short breaks No need to ask why

No help in doing What's needs to be done
Continuing on Even though it's not fun

Reward comes from God Do unto the Lord
No fret nor fussing No tongue as a sword

Tired feeling so tired Each day going by
Always having to do Even with  a sigh

Take Time To Get Through

So much going on Not much time to do
Always on the run No time to get through

What's needed, be done? Rushing things into
What's left unfinished? Not knowing what clue

Nor which was to go, What matters the most?
Do what's important Not having to boast

Or complain of ways Just calm down, be still
Make most out of now Due time, things will heal

Slow down what doing Pace along the way
Take time to get through Stop, pause, listen, pray
