God’s Most Perfect Love ~
God’s most perfect love,
there is nothing better
to help us with our ties . . .
to the world to sever.
It takes our worst fears,
casts them away
fills us with confidence
for judgment day.
God’s most perfect love,
brings eternal elation
gives us the faultless joy
of everlasting salvation.
For without it we’d be,
bound straight for hell
where for all eternity
our souls would dwell.
God’s perfect love,
took away our punishment
renders us before Him . . .
blameless and innocent!
~~~~~~~
There is no fear in love;
but perfect love casteth
out fear: because fear hath
torment. He that feareth is
not made perfect in love.

Lying Lips ~
Loose tongues,
lying lips
don’t care
what slips.
Saying things,
evil and mean
don’t care
how unclean.
Deceiving mouths,
cunning words
don’t care
what is heard.
Speaking falsehoods,
telling untruths
don’t care
how uncouth.
Lying lips,
God hates . . .
need to care
for what awaits!
~~~~~
Lying lips are abomination
to the Lord: but they that
deal truly are his delight.
A false witness shall not
be unpunished, and he that
speaketh lies shall perish.

Aside From Jesus ~
Aside from Jesus,
I’m totally worthless
without Him all I do
is utterly pointless.
The more I grow in Him,
I see my nothingness
the more I know about Him
I see my hopelessness.
Aside from Jesus,
my life is fruitless
without His Spirit
I’m more than useless.
The more He grows in me,
I see my own weakness
the more He means to me
I see my helplessness.
Aside from Jesus,
I’m totally bankrupt
without His grace . . .
I completely corrupt!
~~~~~~~
But grow in grace, and in the
knowledge of our Lord
and Saviour Jesus Christ.
To him be glory both now
and for ever. Amen.

My Dearest Child ~
Come My dearest child,
so rest I may give
come find the peace
of those I forgive.
Let Me take from you,
your worry and care
for on the cross for you
your burdens I did bear.
Come my dearest child,
so hope I can bring
come find the faith to trust
Me in and for all things.
Let Me take from you,
that load crushing
and I will send to you
living water rushing.
Come My dearest child,
let Me bring you rest
unload yourself on Me
with My peace be blessed!
~~~~~~~~~~
Come unto me,
all ye that labour
and are heavy laden,
and I will give
you rest.

As I Get Older ~
Though I’m getting older,
I just keep growing . . .
for much greater things
God keeps on showing.
I never get tired,
uninterested or bored
for I’m always learning
more about my Lord.
Though I’m getting older,
I just keep thriving
as the Word of God
becomes more exciting.
I never get weary,
reading and knowing
for the wisdom I’m getting
keeps my faith flowing.
Though I’m getting older,
the more I can see
the greater things . . .
God keeps teaching me!
~~~~~~~~~~
A wise man will hear,
and will increase learning;

When I Consider All God Made ~
Father, when I consider,
all Your fingers have made
how the sun slowly rises
as the moon begins to fade.
I’m in awe,
of the magnificence I see
in this amazing universe
You have set before me.
Father, when I consider,
the trillion stars in the sky
hanging on the dark backdrop
You placed so ever high.
I’m in awe,
of the works of Your hand
up above in the heavens
from down here where I stand.
Father, when I consider,
the stars, moon and the sun
I know beyond them . . .
is Your Kingdom yet to come.
I’m in awe,
of the splendor of my view
starlit glimpses of eternity
where I’ll be home with You!
~~~~~
“When I consider thy heavens
the work of thy fingers
the moon and the stars,
which thou hast ordained;”

Our Help For Today ~
Our help for today,
tomorrow too . . .
our forever strength
in all we do.
Our constant assistant,
to employ each day
our faithful supporter
as we go our way.
Our power supplier,
now and always
our encourager
for all of our days.
Our motivator,
any day of the week
our confidence builder
when we’re too weak.
Our help for today,
our whole life too . . .
our present strength
God is found in You!
~~~~~~
Fear thou not;
for I am with thee:
be not dismayed;
for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee;
yea, I will help thee;
yea, I will uphold thee
with the right hand
of my righteousness.

Only One Thing To Do~
The past is gone,
can’t bring it back
for our mistakes . .
we musn’t keep track.
For we all error,
slip-up and fumble
we all teeter
stagger and stumble.
The past is over,
it we must forget
and give to God
all that we regret.
For we’re all broken,
chipped and marred
we’re all injured
damaged and scarred.
The past is history,
only one thing to do
is Lord to keep on . . .
pressing into You!
~~~~~~~
Brethren, I count not myself
to have apprehended: but this
one thing I do, forgetting
those things which are behind,
and reaching forth unto those
things which are before

God Gave Me Ears and Eyes ~
God gave me my ears,
He made them able to hear
His voice in His Word
so the truth can be heard.
He wants them to learn,
He wants them to discern
what for me He desires
to do what He requires.
God gave me my eyes,
He made then to be wise
so His way I could see
clearly in front of me.
He wants them to apply,
He wants them to rely
on Him for all things
till eternal hope springs.
God gave me my eyes,
so to Him I’d be wise
He gave me my ears . . .
so His voice I could hear!
~~~~~~~
The hearing ear,
and the seeing eye,
the Lord hath made
even both of them.

May Your Heart I Win ~
Lord, may I win over,
Your heart’s affection
may I with Your Spirit
make a true connection.
May my life reflect,
all You mean to me
may my soul become
enamored with Thee.
Lord, may I be worthy,
in Your eye’s sight
may I be riveted
by the hope of Your light.
May I be ravished,
by Your love for me
may You be pleased
with what in me You see.
Lord, may Your heart,
I win and captivate
may Your life in me
prevail and dominate!
~~~~~
Yea doubtless, and I count all things
but loss for the excellency of the
knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord:
for whom I have suffered the loss
of all things, and do count them
but dung, that I may win Christ,

The Reason for My Hope
I believe in God,
in all of His glorious creation
I believe He made the heavens
and the earth's foundation.I believe that man,
came from but dust
I believe it's God's image
He puts into all of us.I believe that Satan,
is the cause for our fallen state
I believe it's still his lies
he uses on us to trap and bait.I believe that man's heart,
has always been cold and callous
I believe it's full of deceit
filled with ungodly malice.I believe in Jesus,
God's only begotten Son
I believe He died and rose again
for the sins of everyone.I believe in redemption,
from our wicked, evil ways
I believe it's the blood of the Lamb
that washes our sins away.I believe in God's love,
I believe in His grace
I believe one day
God's judgement all will face.I believe in Heaven,
I also believe in hell . . .
I believe for eternity it's where
the unsaved will dwell.I believe in the hope,
Jesus imparts in me
I believe all can be saved
if these truth they'd just see!~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peter 3:15
King James Version"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts:
and be ready always to give an answer to
every man that asketh you a reason of the hope
that is in you with meekness and fear:"Copyright 2014

~ What Can Man Do? ~
I will not be shaken,
nothing can rattle me
not even my own death
will take me, Lord from Thee.I will not tremble,
I have nothing to fear
even if I'm all alone
God is always near.I will not waiver,
on my Rock, I will stand
if I was to stumble
in His grace I will land.I will not be moved,
nothing can take away
the love I have for Jesus
from His ways I'll not stray.I will not be shaken,
nothing will take from me
the peace, faith and hope
I have dear Lord, in Thee!~~~~~~~

"Truly my soul waiteth upon God:
from him cometh my salvation.
"He only is my rock and my salvation;
he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved."King James Version
