The Beauty of Salvation ~
May the beauty of your salvation,
cause you to be jubilant
may the wonder of it all
make and keep you exuberant.
May the greatness of God’s mercy,
bow your grateful, thankful knees
may the vastness of His love
your whole heart, happily seize.
May the grandeur of your hope,
make you permanently indebted
may the elation that you feel
forever in your soul be embedded.
May the splendor of Jesus’ grace,
always keep you humble and meek
may your gleeful gratitude
be in every word you speak.
May the beauty of your salvation,
bring to you God’s eternal peace
may your delighted exuberance
to Him you jubilantly release!
~~~~~~~
For the Lord taketh pleasure
in his people: he will beautify
the meek with salvation.

Truly Thankful ~
When we’re truly thankful,
in and for all things . . .
we will begin to realize
the joy to God it brings.
For, whatever might be,
our personal situation
He still wants us to show
to Him our adoration.
When we are truly thankful,
wherever in life we are
we’ll begin to understand
God from us is never far.
For, when we’re grateful,
no matter our positions
we’ll begin to see God’s love
comes without conditions.
When we are truly thankful,
despite of our circumstance
it’s because we know with God
nothing comes by happenstance!
~~~~~~~~~~
For our heart shall rejoice in him,
because we have trusted in his holy name.

Counting My Blessings ~
If I could add up,
all of my blessings
the total sum of them . . .
I’d only be guessing.
For, God sends to me,
new ones each day
yet, I don’t notice them
as they come my way.
If I’d only slow down,
I know I would see
the many blessings
He bestows on me.
For, God delivers to me,
mercy on a daily bases
and often I miss seeing . . .
the abundance of His graces.
If I could all my blessings,
harness and gather . . .
I know I would never stop
giving praise to my Father!
~~~~~~~~
But my God shall supply all your need
according to his riches in glory
by Christ Jesus.

Lost With Jesus ~
Lost in thought,
the Lord and me
so looking forward
to what I can’t see.
Knowing the peace,
passing understanding
keeps me for Him
eagerly awaiting.
Lost in reminiscing,
days without hope
wondering how
I ever did cope.
Thankful and grateful,
each and every day
my Father hears me
when ever I pray.
Lost in thought,
Jesus and me . . .
oh, how behind closed doors
with Him, I love to be!
~~~~~~
“But thou, when thou prayest,
enter into thy closet,
and when thou hast shut
thy door, pray to thy
Father which is in secret;
and thy Father which seeth
in secret shall reward thee openly.”

In The Name of Jesus ~
I thank God,
for being there
for listening to
my every care.
I thank Him,
for staying true
for lifting me up
when I am blue.
I thank God,
for never leaving
for keeping me
on Him cleaving.
I thank Him,
for mercy anew
for helping me
a day get through.
In Jesus’ name,
I thank God . . .
praise Him with
my heartfelt laud!
~~~~~
Giving thanks always
for all things unto
God and the Father
in the name of our
Lord Jesus 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

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!~~~~~~~
Psalm 62:1-2
"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
