Seeing With Faith Eyes

Seeing with faith eyes, Things believing, come
Not know how it be, Nor adding up some

What's the difference? Between now and than?
Better I do hope, From way back to when

Things so challenging, As life came about
Not like use to be, Thinking of, no doubt

Change in attitude, Set forth new visions
Seeing with faith eyes, Making decisions

Turning More Away

Turning more away, Need not to go there
Have learned my lessons, Have to know to care

About what I need, And what I should do
Keep waiting on God, He'll guide me on through

Need not to worry, Trusting in the LORD
Not in what I lack, Or least, can't afford

Keep the faith in Him, Leave the past behind
Turning more away, Seeking peace of mind

About Reached The End

About reached the end, And not looking back
Coming to complex, Staying on the track

Journey long and hard, Lessons have been learned
Along the path trail, Becoming, discerned

Hard way in getting,  Is this what I need?                      
Not knowing the truth, Must move on indeed
                   
Having to rethink,  The longing, I want
About reached the end, Being bold and blunt

Tough Times Keeps Coming

Tough times keeps coming, How to make amend?
Tighten up a bit, Not knowing the end

How to pay the cost? Higher that I thought
Have to let things go, Can't afford what bought

How to make payments? Each month by the year?
Mind racing to, fro, Moving into fear

Resting, thinking, how, To get through this mess?
Tough times keeps coming, Lord, help me to rest

End Of An Era

End of an era, New things birthing forth
On the horizon, Seeing a new torch

Hand-off to future, Teach them how to live
Life experiences, Teach them how to give

Of themselves freely, To God almighty
Bringing them up to, Be all they can be

Guided by His Light, This generation
End of an era, God's inspiration

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

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

New Day Has Begun

New day has begun, Old ways leave behind
Move forward ahead, Search on to define

What's your calling here? Leading? than going>
Ins and outs of life, Not sure unknowing

Nor can't stay longer, But, ought to be real
Not fake in doing, Nor what makes you feel

Good inside, being, Who you meant to be
New day has begun, Set forth, now let's see

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

Feeling Out Of Place

Feeling out of place, Thing, where I'm at?
Different in doing, How to come to that?

Still wondering yet, Don't know where fit in
Hoping to become, Not blown by the wind

Aware of places, Where I need to be
Believe God will come, More than what can see

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

Excited In Knowing

Excited in knowing, Info discovered
Searching through records, Yet, be uncovered
Think so, but not sure, Waiting year by year
Records are released, New info, now here

Though years have done passed, Clues later be found
Searching newspapers, Let there be a sound

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

Going In Some More

Going in some more, Journey done past
Shedding more of old, Not going to last

This to will soon end, Days of yester-years
Long gone put to rest, Drawing us to near

To the days we yearn, The goodness there in
Surrounding our lifetime, We all tend to blend

In with the others, Stepping out in field
Going in some more, For God in our shield

Struggling Somewhat

Struggling somewhat, To get through season
Life being so hard, Questioning, reasons

Those things don't make sense, Too long in this place
Needing to move on. LORD help us to face

Such matters at hand, Keep us in this race
Not looking around, But keeping the pace

To focus on You, The quest every day
Help us to just do, as long as we pray

What You've have called, From darkness to light
Struggling somewhat, But, getting insight

At Closure At Rest

At closure, at rest, Shaking off the dust
Cease thinking of past, Moving on, a must

Dealt with the pain, Can't say any more
Allow God to heal, Don't open up sore

So let the Lord guide, You on through the end
Keep pressing forward, Faith soar into wind

God is guiding you, Be calm and relax
At closure at rest, Making an impact

Shift In Some Doings

Shift in some doings, Make room for the new
Got to let go of, keep moving on through

Each valley below, Every mountain top
In believing God, Hoping not to stop

Keeping in contact, In what all be done
Doing all you can, Through Jesus, God's Son

Coming up higher, God's making things new
Shift in some doings, We all must pursue

Awaiting The Wait

A turning inside, Awaiting the wait
For the Lord to come, This longing, not late

Believing, He's here, In Spirit and truth
His Word ever stands, Holding tight, not loose

Been stirred up inside Keep looking ahead
Believe in His word, For what He has said

Be open to hear, Awaiting the wait
A turning inside, Sensing, don't set dates

Letting Go What Passed

Letting go what passed, Pressing; moving on
Beyond the sorrow, Lingering upon

The years passing by, Holding on, what's good
Times treasured in heart, For though as we should

Have strength to follow, Broken yet singing
Joy within Spirit, A voice that's bringing

Praises to the LORD, In Spirit and truth
Breaking mind set forth, Turning some things loose

From bondage once held, Mind set to be free
Letting go what's passed, Praying, let things be

Having Time To Come

Having time to come, What's needed to do
Making decisions, To do something new

Adjusting, looking, How to change some things
Hoping, rethinking, What new life will bring?

Waiting, wondering, Things will be alright
Believe to receive, By wisdom, insight

All things, possible, Keep going His way
Be encouraged on, Having faith to pray
Wisdom will come forth, Listen with your heart
Having time to come, Just learn, where to start

Going Beyond Self

Going beyond self, Those things use to do
When wanting my way, Selfishness got through

Seeing others now, For what they might need
Looking for the good, Planting some more seeds

Each day, self dying, Becoming anew
Selfless in doing, Interested in who?

So ever indeed, Becoming on through
Going beyond self, Those things use to do
