Give Me a Sense of Humor!

Lord, give me a sense of humor,
a spirit that is light
so when I feel the darkest
my heart sparkles bright.

Let me learn to giggle,
when something tickles me
like my baby grandson
when I bounce him on my knee.

Let me learn to chuckle,
like I did when I was a little girl
even when life’s tangles
are pulling my thinning curls.

Let me learn to laugh aloud,
even if only to myself
like when a child is playing
with no one but them self.

Let me learn to smile,
when I prefer to wear a frown
like a toddler thick in mischief
and thinks no one is around!

The Light ~

May the light of my faith keep burning,
no matter what should happen to me
may His Spirit spark and incite my trust
for Jesus is all I’ll ever need.

May the light of my faith keep growing,
no matter the problems I face
may His Spirit ignite and enlighten me,
for Jesus is my saving grace.

May the light of my faith keep shining,
when others try to mislead and deceive
may His Spirit revive my desire and hope
for Jesus is in whom I believe.

May the light of my faith keep glowing,
no matter how dark the world is today
may His Spirit kindle and inspire me
for Jesus is the Truth, Life and the Way!

I am the way, the truth, and the life:
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
