Unfailing Waters ~

Unfailing waters,
hope ever flowing . . .
nourishing the soul
this God knowing.

In times of drought,
or those plentiful
God is always . . .
someone dependable.

Springs of water,
pop up everywhere
quenching the thirst
so not to despair.

In times of bounty,
of those of need
strength comes to those
who their Bible’s read.

Unfailing waters,
satisfaction guaranteed
when we let the Holy Spirit
for us intercede!

~~~~~~~~

Isaiah 58:11

And the Lord shall guide thee
continually, and satisfy thy soul
in drought, and make fat thy bones:
and thou shalt be like a watered garden,
and like a spring of water,
whose waters fail not.

For Every Beginning ~

For every beginning,
there must be an end
just like a rainbow . . .
must have a bend.

But, He who has begun,
a good work in you
will be there to help
and see you through.

For what He begins,
will not fade away
what He has started
He’ll complete one day.

His love set in motion,
is constant and true
He’ll never cease
taking care of you.

His comfort is steady,
to soothe and to ease
He is always eager
to satisfy and please.

His hope is ceaseless,
forever it goes on
just like a new day . . .
must have a dawn.

His faithfulness persists,
no matter the season
He’ll always forgive you
no matter the reason.

His gentle, kind mercies,
are eternally bound
forever they comfort
they are yours to be found.

His truth sets us free,
from Satan’s deception
and He’ll liberate us all
on the Day of Redemption.

For those who endure,
will be saved to the end
for Jesus has promised
to be our eternal friend.

So, give your life to Jesus,
and you’ll find perfect rest
just like the sun . . .
must set in the west!

Psalm 91:4

I’m Stepping Out In Faith ~

I’m stepping out in faith today,
I’m walking with my Lord
I found Him faithful yesterday
He’ll be true again today.

I’m stepping out in faith today,
I’m seeking to find His peace
I found His calm yesterday
He’ll quiet me again today.

I’m stepping out in faith today,
I’m trusting Him with my heart
I found Him reliable yesterday
He’ll be trustworthy again today.

I’m stepping out in faith today
I’m asking Him to heed my prayer
I found Him listening yesterday
He’ll hear my pleas again today.

I’m stepping out in faith today,
I’m trusting Him for what I can’t see
I found His guidance yesterday . . .
I know He’ll lead me again today!

God’s Hand Of Faithfulness ~

God’s hand of faithfulness,
can be seen in my life
though the times of rest
and those full of strife.

He held on to me,
with His merciful hand
as He revealed to me
what was for me His plan.

God’s hand of faithfulness,
led and guided me
through the days of peace
and those angry as a sea.

He wrote my name,
on His palm He inscribed
His promise to me
to always be at my side.

God’s hand of faithfulness,
has always been loyal
through the good times
throughout all my trials!

Psalms 119:90 

Early Morning Praise ~

Early in the morning,
before the sun is ablaze
give a shout of pure joy
a song of heartfelt praise.

Make a sweet melody,
show God your gratitude
sing out your praises
with a joyful attitude.

Early in the morning,
as the sun begins to rise
remember God’s kindness
as He lightens up the skies.

Clap your hands together,
lift your arms in praise
give your day to the Lord
thanking Him for His ways.

While the dew is still set,
on the morning lawn
while the house is yet dark
before it becomes dawn.

Show your thankfulness,
to the Lord up above
lift up your heart-song
praising Him for His love.

When your day is finally over,
as the sun dims its blazing light
thank God for His faithfulness
all though the starry night!

~~~~~~~~~~
