250208 Start Anew

 Start Anew

Frustrated? Don't know what to do?
Ask God to help you start anew

Seems trouble sticks to you like glue?
Stick close to God; he'll see you through

Anxiety's gotten hold of you?
Take a deep breath; begin anew 

Sadness has got you feeling blue?
With God, you'll feel a better hue

Sinned against God a time or two?
Ask his forgiveness; start anew 

Negativity's obscured your view?
With God, your outlook can be new

Someone you love has been untrue?
God's comfort helps you start anew

Your mortgage payment's overdue?
Trust God to keep roof over you

Been praying hard for a breakthrough?
Hang on till you sing hallelu-

Been far too long since sat in pew?
It's not too late to come back to

Though ran from God, he'll still pursue
Return to him; begin anew

No matter what you say or do 
The Father always cares for you
Your sinful nature, he'll subdue
You only have to ask him to
His endless love, don't miss construe
He sacrificed his Son for you
In doing so, death's sting withdrew
So believers can be born anew
Now, sing God's praises all day through 
And when you're done, then start anew

240606 The Word You Use

 T he Words You Use Be careful 'bout the words you use For words can injure; words can bruise Be careful 'bout the things you say For hurtful words, one's soul can slay It's not just words you use, but tone For tone has meaning all its own And if you've raised a teenage child You know their tone's what drives you wild The words you use carry such weight To express love or start debate For kind words can be source of life But biting words breed only strife A loving word makes someone's day Like honey, are kind words you say Yet, angry words, spoken in haste Will only leave a bitter taste  Don't know 'bout you, but I feel bad If speak unkind because I'm mad And though I'm sorry in the end Know they can't be unheard again Repaired relations come with price Won't have to pay if just talked nice The damage is already done  Though the word battle you have won The Word says tongue's a two edged sword  And words once said can't be ign...

240821 Little Things

  Little Things  I got a pebble in my shoe Though was a tiny thing It caused a bruise upon my heel And oh, such pain did bring  Was walking on a windy day Got speck of sand in eye Was almost too small to be seen  But surely made me cry A dear one was upset with me Harsh words - said one or two The sting of then, hard to forget Though we began anew A little fib seems no big deal No harm in a white lie Till it becomes a habit And the fibs just multiply Ofttimes, it's just a little thing That can throw you off track Yet, all those small things added up Can break the camel's back  And sometimes little things grow big Creating quite a mess For most don't simply go away When they are not addressed  Pebble must be removed from shoe The sand washed out of eye Harsh words need an apology  The truth, replace a lie  The devil knows this principle  So that's how he begins Whispers to you his little lies Compromises lead to sins He gets you to take little...

240829 The Sound of Silence

  The Sound of Silence  Sometimes, our life's cacophony  Sounds nothing like a symphony  Instead, like clanging in our ear  Til sound of silence long to hear  To some, silence is what you dread  Because of troubles in your head  So fill up space with idle sound  In hopes the silence you can drown  Perhaps the silence's deafening  For loneliness's a common thing  So silence isn't heard by choice  Desperate to hear another's voice  Or silence might be what you crave For house is filled with little knaves  And noise level in your abode  Puts all your nerves on overload  In life, it's balance brings us peace  Silence and sound  - need both of these Our Savior modeled how to live So we should copy what he did Christ knew he'd have a noisy day Rose early just to get away  To have some quiet solitude  Before facing the multitude  So likewise, we need balancin' Of quiet and life's joyou...
