Lord You Are In Control

Precious Jesus, Savior of my soul
To you I give complete control
Control of my life in every way
Even the way I react to things each day
When satan tries to upset me
With things that aren't the way I want them to be
I'll reach for your hand, it's always there
I never have to worry, you go with me everywhere
I can count on you to see me through
Bad situations and bad choices too
And LORD if there's anything I can do for you
I'll gladly perform any task that you want me to do
If I can help someone when they are down and out
By telling them what your love is all about
And how you care what happens to them,
Without you in there life, their future is grim
You can count on me LORD, I'm ready to serve
And I know you're in control when life throws me a curve.

Are you listening

Sometimes if you listen,you can hear
GOD whispering softly in your ear

He is telling you from up above
About his patient and forgiving love

He'll tell you how he's waiting there
For you to show him that you care

Just a prayer to ask him for his help
To get you into him,and out of yourself

He will always provide for your every need
You have to trust him and turn away from your greed

He'll give you strength,that will get you through,
Any situation that satan can throw at you

So listen,listen,to what he has to say
He's telling you how to start over, the christian way.

We Are Blessed

Be thankful for what you get
It all comes from God above
He always sends us blessings
Out of his unwavering Fatherly love

No one has the knowledge to predict
What our tomorrows are going to bring
One day you are flying on top of the world
The next day you could lose everything

Praise God for every day that He gives you
Good health and that of your children
And that you have a wonderful family
Who sticks by you through thick and thin

So next time you think you have problems
No matter what kind they may be
Think about many, who have so much less than you
Remember and say to yourself, " God has been good to me!"

A Magnificent Story

I have a Magnificent Story

About JESUS,and all of his Glory

How He came to this Earth for me

To wash me in his blood and set me free

Friends Fill A Special Need

A friend is someone who makes you smile A friend is someone who'll go that extra mile A friend is there when somethin' makes you cry A friend will hold your hand without asking why And when you're ready to talk they're there With a listening ear because they care A friend will laugh with you when times are good They will never laugh at you, when others would A friend stands by you when the going gets tough They'll help you walk away when you've had enough And when at times you need a helping hand You don't have to ask, they'll be there if they can Friends can talk with their eyes to each other They're as close to you as your sisters and brothers Yes, friendship is a special relationship indeed God puts friends together to fill a special need And you never know when you meet someone new God may have sent them for you to be a friend to.

My Gift

I have a God given talent That I've known about for so long I just never thought it good enough But it seems that I was wrong. I've written for years about the tears From all the pain along the way It seemed to vent my feelings But my focus changed one day. One Sunday while getting ready for church God gave me the words and the lines came I sat right down on my couch And wrote a poem praising his name Those words,they came so easy It was as if God was speaking to me But still I didn't realize What the impact on my life would be Needless to say,I missed church that day As the rain came down outside I sat there and wrote two more poems God was changing me inside. I knew that He was there with me Speaking through my pen in hand I had been so long on another path And He was leading me back again. Since that day I have written more Each time that God inspires me I'm not sure if they're right for song But maybe I can help someone to believe That my God who cares so much About everyone and everything Will change their life and make it better While giving it a whole new meaning.
