What A Wonderful God ~

I see God in the sky,
in the light of the moon
I see Him in the stars
through the universe strewn
and I think to my self . . .
what a wonderful God!

I see God in the hills,
in the valley below
I see Him in the streams
throughout the earth flow
and I think to my self. . . .
what a skillful God!

I see God in the ocean,
in the waves on the shore
I see Him as they crash
with a thunderous roar .
and I think to my self . . .
what a powerful God!

I see God in the trees,
the flowers that bloom
I see Him as the robin
its nestling’s groom
and I think to my self . . .
what a beautiful God!

I see God in the clouds,
in the storms rolling by
I see Him in the lighting
as it brightens up the sky
and I think to my self . . .
what a masterful God!

I see God’s handiwork,
it is all around me . . .
oh, how I can hardly wait
to see what I cannot see
and I think to my self . . .
what a wonderful God!

Psalm 8:3

When I consider thy heavens,
the work of thy fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which thou hast ordained;

Psalm 19:1

The heavens declare
the glory of God;
and the firmament
sheweth his handywork.

God, My Creator ~

God, my Creator,
my Former, my Author
I am so thankful
to be Your Daughter.

For You knew of me,
while in my mother’s womb
You gave me a heart eager
to meet Jesus my Groom.

God, my Designer,
my Maker, My Shaper
You knew I was only
a mere, passing vapor.

Yet You cherish me,
so much that You know
the number of hairs
on my head that grow.

God my Creator,
my Originator, my Conceiver
before I was born . . .
You knew I’d be a believer!

~~~~~~~~

Psalm 139:13-14

For thou hast
possessed my reins:
thou hast covered me
in my mother’s womb.

I will praise thee;
for I am fearfully
and wonderfully made:
marvellous are thy works;
and that my soul knoweth
right well.

All Things Created ~

All things held together,
by God’s mighty hands
all things come together
according to His plans.

All things in heaven,
by God were fashioned
all things here on earth
He wisely sanctioned.

All things that are seen,
and all that which are not
were conceived by God
and the power of His thought.

The thrones and the rulers,
the mandates that be
were all formed and made
to give glory to Thee.

All things by God,
were created and established
so His plan for salvation . . .
could be accomplished!

~~~~~~~

Colossians 1:16-18

For by him were all things created,
that are in heaven,
and that are in earth,
visible and invisible,
whether they be thrones, or dominions,
or principalities, or powers:
all things were created by him,
and for him:

And he is before all things,
and by him all things consist.

And he is the head of the body,
the church: who is the beginning,
the firstborn from the dead;
that in all things he might have
the preeminence.

The Glorious Works of God ~

The glorious works of God,
are everywhere . . .
none which man created
to them can compare.

It’s sparkles in the skies,
it glows in the moon
it twinkles through stars
it shines at high noon.

It’s a pillar of light,
it’s a Word from above
it’s water from a rock
it’s forgiveness and love.

It’s heard in the waters,
it babbles in a spring
it roars to the shore
it soars on eagle wings.

It’s a wooden cross,
it’s mercy and favor
it’s filled with grace
it’s the gift of a Savior.

The glorious works of God,
are everywhere . . .
there are none greater
to be found elsewhere!

It’s All Yours Lord ~

It’s all Yours Lord,
the sky, the sea
the heaven, the earth
all belong to Thee.

You dampen the clouds,
bring the shine of the sun
only You in Your wisdom
can the universe run.

Lord, You alone created,
the mountain, the hills
the valleys, the dales
were formed by Your will.

You clap out the thunder,
the lighting You streak
You make the wave roar
put the stillness in a creak.

It’s all Yours Lord,
the earth and all related
by just Your command . . .
were made and created!

Psalm 104:24

O Lord, how manifold are thy works!
in wisdom hast thou made them all:

Good Morning Quote ~07.24.19~

The Sun On The Horizon ~

Give me the sun on the horizon,
a sherbet color morning sky above
give me a clear, cloudless, warm day
then you’ll know why with God I’m in love.

Give me the shade of a willow tree,
the Good Book for me to read
give me a sweet tea to sip on
and I will have close to all I need.

Give me a creek’s mesmerizing flow,
chirps coming from a robin’s nest
give me green pastures with my Lord
well now you can picture the rest.

Give me the sound of children playing,
the laughs and giggles of youth
give me the peace of a summer’s sigh
found around a lemonade booth.

Give me the soft breeze off the ocean,
the sun painting its dazzling set
give me the coolness of the moonlight
and I’ll be close to heaven as I can get.

Give me a day in the radiant Son shine,
let me bask in God’s glorious love
give me a warm summer day to reflect . . .
on the splendor God’s sends from above!

In God’s Hands ~

In God’s hands,

I clearly fit

by His own fingers

my soul He did knit.

For in the womb,
they formed me
just like the pod
of a pea.

In God’s hands
I want to stay
and be to Him
a piece of clay.

For He molded,
my heart in them
just like the bud
on top of a stem.

In God’s hands,
I perfectly fit
for by them He put
His own spirit!

~~~~~~

Isaiah 64:8

But now, O Lord, thou art our father;
we are the clay, and thou our potter;
and we all are the work of thy hand.

John 1:3

All things were made by him;
and without him was not any
thing made that was made.

Before I formed thee
in the belly I knew thee

Good Morning Quote ~06.08.19~

My Life Is God’s ~

My life is God’s,
to Him it belongs
His plans for me
I gladly go along.

In Him I live,
He moves my soul
to believe He is . . .
the One in control.

My life is God’s,
and not my own
only for how long
by Him is known.

In Him I exist,
my breath is His
for I’m convinced
it’s the way it is.

My life is God’s,
my being springs
from Him who created
all living things!

Acts 17:28

“For in him we live,
and move, and have our being;
as certain also of your
own poets have said,
For we are also his offspring.”

Sticky Note From God ~11.26.18~

Creator Of All Things ~

God made and keeps,
all things in order
everything moves
within His border.

The sun and moon,
are set high in the sky
their course plan
is controlled by His eye.

The earth and plants,
revolve by His design
His purpose for them
are perfectly in line.

The stars and cosmos,
come out at His will
He says when to shoot
or to remain sky still.

God is the creator,
of all things we see . . .
by faith I even believe
His image is in me!

~~~~~~~~

Hebrews 11:3

“Through faith we understand
that the worlds were framed
by the word of God, so that
things which are seen were not
made of things which do appear.”

Sticky Note to God ~11.26.18 ~

Good Morning Quote ~05.01.18~

Too Numerous To Count ~

When I look at the stars,
as I watch their twinkling
I can see God’s blessings
in them glistening.

I see the star of my faith,
shinning so ever bright
for, God has blessed me
with His saving Light.

I see the star of my trust,
hanging in the sky above
for, God has blessed me
with His mercy and love.

I see the star of my hope,
it’s the brightest one
for, God has blessed me
with the grace of His Son.

When I look at the stars,
as they twinkle all about
I’m reminded God’s blessings
are just too numerous to count!

Genesis 15:5

“And he brought him forth abroad,
and said, Look now toward heaven,
and tell the stars, if thou be
able to number them:
and he said unto him,
So shall thy seed be.”
