Lorraine day
Whenever I am troubled
By uncertainty and care
I read my holy bible
The answers always there
The covers old it's frayed and worn
Discoloured now with age
But the knowledge and the truths within
On every single page
The parable of the sower a favourite that I read
As Jesus speaks unto the crowd explains about the seed
So many proverbs to be found
To show us every day
Lots of wisdom left to help
guide along the way
If ever you are lost not found
Thinking no ones there to care
Just read your holy bible
As the answers always there ....

When someone shows us kindness
It always seems to be
That the good lord up above
Is watching over me
He speaks to us so often
In many different ways

He left his word to teach us
About the kind of love
That pays
When We see a sunset
You can feel him
Standing near
Or when you hear a melody
That banishes
Our fear


I see him in a garden
When it's in full bloom
His essence in the aroma
Of the beautiful perfume

I hear him in the sound
Of a new born babies cry
I see him through
The beauty of a gentle butterfly

I feel his gentle spirit
in a summer breeze
His strength I see strong standing tall
Through the vision of the trees
He touches our hearts in many ways
I've no doubt that he's there
We only have to look around
To see he's everywhere

The road is narrow
But forever long
Most days I walk
Or stumble along
Often it's bumpy
Rarely smooth
Sometimes I question
Choices I choose
Never clear of direction
We do not know
Just what is ahead
As we go
some times are good
Some leave us sad
Take the rough with smooth
Good with the bad
Remember this !your not alone
Can't write him a letter
Nor pick up the phone
But no matter  how bad things seem today
He's waiting and listening
For you to pray
His name is Jesus
Our guiding light
There in the morning
Till last thing at night
His hand is outstretched
Reaching down from above
Offering All
( Unconditional  Love.  )

Love is a small word
Spoken often I know
But it's also
Important to let it show
If there's someone you love
Why not show them today
For love isn't love
Till you give it away

A friend is someone special
When you find one you will know
That through the years that pass us by
Your friendship it will grow
Together you will nurture it
Like a garden it will bloom
The essence of the time you share
Like the beautiful perfume
No measureing of this friendship
By the gifts that you receive
But rather by the trust that's built
In them you will believe
They'll be with you through the good times
They'll care when times are bad
Always there to wipe those tears
When your down or feeling sad
There is no price
That you could pay
No real way we can measure
The importance of a life long friend
More valuable than treasure

My children as I watch today
I see you struggle to find your way
So many vices have gripped you tight
Some lead you into the dead of night
Like the restless sea or impending tide
I see your hearts- your troubled minds
You're stumbling blindly
Bound not free
Going through life so aimlessly

No real direction nor purpose found
Too much ! iniquity all around
Many speak my name in vain
Praying only! when they're  in pain

I see not truth
But many lying
Compassion absent
Too many dying
Relentless desires
Ruling within
Leading you to the wages of sin

Faith  -Hope  -Love.  (Peace  of Mind)

"If you should only seek "        (you will find)
This is how I perceive gods thoughts  as he  looks down on us today.  Hoping we will seek him- his word -and his heart -

My mother is an angel
Who walked here on this earth
She touched every person
Oblivious  of her worth
Her tongue it spoke no malice
Her heart was lined with gold
Her inner beauty shone so bright
Even more as she grew old
She's helped so many people
With her tender loving care
She's sacrificed so many hours
Of love with time to share
Not just to her family
But to all
Who stepped her way
Not just sometimes
When it suited her
But every single day
My mother she's an angel
To know her
It's a pleasure
The respect I have the love I feel
For her
Is beyond measure
Im forever humbled by her ways
In her heart you'll find no doubt
I've never seen her cause discord
Or ever heard her shout
Her voice she spoke so quietly
She knew no selfish glare
She's my mother
My inspiration
Living proof
Gods really there.

As I travel down life's dusty road
Across its rocky path
My hope is that I've shown gods love
Only positive aftermath
To lead by his example
Is my object of desire
I hope his light that dwells within
Shines like a glowing fire
Such peace I hold within my heart
knowing when death comes my way
That he has given eternal life
So I fear not
My dying day
No greater gift could I receive
For this reason
I am bold
I will embrace the gateway to heaven
The treasured path that's lined with gold

When our hands are clasped in prayer
I find comfort knowing this
Our heavenly fathers listening
Un clasped hands
He opens his
Intently he will listen
To our simple prayer
His arms outstretched
He offers
Hope
Boundless love and care
Your faith may not move mountains
Sometimes it may sway
Especially when in troubled times
But that's when you should pray
None of us are perfect
God knows that is true
For this reason he gave his begotten son
Crucified was he for you
"Father do not forsake me"!
We're the words that Jesus gave
He took upon him -all our sin
For all the world to save
So whenever you are troubled
Hearts filled with dismay
Just clasp those hands together
And let him hear us pray

Let me find a quiet place
Where I can revel in your grace
Away from all those memories stored
A world of discord ,wanting more!
Quietly I your spirit seek
When silence echos
I hear you speak
It's not a voice that I can hear
Rather a connection of drawing near
To a presence felt
Like a warm embrace
Like the warmth of the sun
Shine upon my face
My soul so hungry
For you layed  bare
In the hope you'll leave your essence there
May your gentleness speak upon my lips
My heart touched by your fingertips
My flesh my bones
nurtured
Deep within
Cleansed
Renewed

So Free from sin

There's something about a rainbow
That makes us stop n stare
Making even non believers
Wonder if gods really there ?
The colors shine so brightly
Arranged perfectly in line
Each colours blend harmonious
Allowing it then to shine
The very sight spiritually
Reaches all who feast their eyes
on the beauty of the rainbow
Displayed across the heavenly skies
This is one sight that stops all ages n types of people in their tracks making us think. ? On a different level    God works in mysterious ways.as they say.

We are only here a little while
Revenge or hurt
It's not my style
I choose the words
I'd like to say
Hoping to make
Somebody's day
There's so much sadness in this world here
I aim to be kind
Be of good cheer
I'll share gods love
Spread laughter too
These things I feel it's right to do
When I meet a stranger
I give them a smile
And remember
We're only here a little while .....
We all can make a difference in each others life by doing the most simplest of things while we travel this journey of life

Your on my mind
Day n night
Your in my thoughts as I switch off the light
Your in my heart
Embedded deep
Your in my dreams as I sleep
Your in the picture on the wall
It's hanging in the entrance hall
Your infectious laugh echoes here
Amidst the memories that hold you near
I hold you next to my heart that beats
Seeking comfort knowing
One day we will meet
When that day arrives
You'll be waiting there
Again we"ll embrace the love once shared
Sadness and broken hearts no more
As we walk together through  
Heavens door
My hope is this brings comfort to all those suffering loss.  Love is the most powerful force -my belief is death is a temporary separation until the next time

— The End —
