Resting In The Lounge

Resting in the lounge In the corner back
Not in Upper Room Drawn away some slack

Feeling atmosphere With comforting look
Bringing peace of mind Writing in  a book

A poem to speak Of what's on my thoughts
Of sorrow or joy Those happenings brought

Into life's journey Trials sailing away
Resting in the lounge Waiting as I pray

Set Bondaries

Set boundaries Don't cross over line
Doing too much more Needing not to whine

Re think what doing Measure out the rest
Do what's important Making it your best

Giving it a go Need not to hurry
Believing you can No need to worry

Staying on track Don't cross over line
Set boundaries Letting your light shine

Uncover New Leads

Leads, lead to some things Be alert for clues
Follow after them Searching your way through

It won't hurt to look At what you might find
Follow up on things It could fall in line

To what you're searching  Drawing you so near.
Uncover new leads From over the years

For TIme As If When

Re reading poems I wrote years past
Making me rethink The questions I asked

As present in time To what wrote back then
Comfort to the soul For time as if when

I was there in time Seeing where I was
Now as I'm still here Not thinking because

But moving onward As present time tense
For time as if when No time for defense

Each Day As We Live

Miracles from God Each day as we live
Making the best of In life as we give

Of ourselves outward From the heart within
Letting others know That we all have sin

Not to judge others We can't see their heart
Nor know their motives That made what from start

So believe  in God Make most of the best
Each day as we live In the Lord take rest

Restless In Waiting

Restless in waiting To do what next
Hearing foreseeing Not the same contest

Sorting re thinking For what there to do?
Hoping wishing still In all to get through

The waiting process In life's over clue
Got to keep waiting Pushing more than few

Years month even days To do what next
Restless in waiting In what to detect

Needing To Adjust

Changing time again Moving up the clock
Needing to adjust Having to re stock

Into this time set It comes twice a year
Daylight savings time For some just don't care

For changings of time In season that past
Leave the clocks alone For we were not asked

If we wanted it Changing time again
Needing to adjust Lord, help us Amen

Finding More Info

Finding more info On the family tree
Things I've over looked So, happy to see

Stories unfolding Connecting each link
Oh, how bless to see Now have to rethink

How did I miss that? It's been there for years
Feeling so grateful Filling up a cheer

Those things that I've missed I glad that it's clear
Those pages set to view A voice I can't hear

Written long ago Those records are signs
What was recorded than For future to find

Stories unfolding On the family tree
Finding more info So, happy to see

Take Time For Yourself

Over doing things Needing to get rest
Tired feeling so tired Not doing what's best

Rushing to do things To get things all done
Need not to worry Wishing there was none

Take time for yourself Pace as you're going
Throughout lifetime self You keep on sowing

Keep on keeping on Where faith can be found
Keep on keeping on Plant seeds on good ground

Believe that you can Don't over do it
Take time for yourself And rest up a bit

Visions In Visions

Visions in visions Still not came to past
Memories linger How long will this last?

Will it come at all? How long is the wait?
Waiting and waiting Standing at the gate

It's endless in time Don't know if or when
Will this come to past? Still I want to bend

My knees in prayer Hoping for the best
Visions in visions In the Lord, I'll  rest

In Jesus' Name

Looking back on life Journey it has been
Thanking  God, His grace Forgiving our sins

Leading us His way The way we should go
Laying thing aside Things we yet don't know

Trusting God's Spirit Guide us into truth
Freed us from bondage That's setting us loose

Leading us into Tender mercy mild
In Jesus' name We're all His child

Needing To Slow Down

Needing  to slow down Doing way too much
Running here and there Doing such and such

Need to take some breaks From all that you do
Life is a journey So journey on through

Enjoying yourself Each day that comes by
Seizing the moments But though, you'll deny 

If, you should do that? Or question, if why?
Will you feel guilty Or say it's a lie?

Running here and there Doing such and such
Needing to slow down Doing way too much

Tired feeling so tired Each day going through

The task of what's there No matter the size
From the least to big For some a surprise

Believing no doubt Jesus, always there
To bring us comfort Loving tender care

In all season round Getting us on track

Setting mind to do Changing things ahead
Not looking backward Forget what was said

Focus on where going Not where use to be
Move on this new trail Looking what's to siege

Must Keep Adjusting

Feeling the changes As going about
Life has its own turns Make you want to shout

But in any case We learn to move on
From troubling things Through dust until dawn

Making those changes That have to be made
In long run we see With no more delays

Keep on moving on Yet, feeling the change
Must keep adjusting In life, rearrange

Hearing a whisper Softly as I pray

The hunger inside Oh, how my heart aches

To be with You, Lord Please open my mind

Name Above All Names

Day to remember Time passing us by
Making some moments Not pondering why

But living each day As if was the last
Thinking upon now Not what then has past

Moving on forward Leaving things behind
No regrets, remorse Forgiveness we find

Loving, being loved That's what life's about
Deep down inside heart And hoping no doubt

Someone does love us He's making us whole
Name above all names Jesus, saving souls
