Good Morning Quote ~12.24.20~

Divine Design ~

For you God has,
a divine design . . .
if you let your will
with His entwine.

Then for you His plans,
you will begin to find
as you open up to Him
your heart and mind.

For you God has,
a divine life . . .
if you give to Him
your earthly strife.

Then He will guide you,
on the narrow way
as you discover what is
His purpose each day.

For you God has,
a divine outcome . . .
as long as to satin’s lies
you don’t succumb!

~~~~~~~~~~

Jeremiah 29:11

For I know the thoughts that
I think toward you, saith the Lord,
thoughts of peace, and not of evil,
to give you an expected end.

Afternoon Ponderings~11.17.19

God Knows My Tomorrow ~

God knows my tomorrow,
He’s planned it out for me
He knows what will happen
before daylight I even see.

I know I can trust Him,
to meet me along the way
tis why I have no fear
when I greet another day.

God knows beforehand,
the challenges I will face
I know He will give me
sufficient amounts of grace.

I believe He will lead me,
on the road He has chosen
I trust He has a purpose
for the path He’s woven.

God knows my tomorrow,
so I will seek Him first thing
for I know not what . . .
He’s considering to bring!

~~~~~~~~~~

Matthew 6:33-34

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God,
and his righteousness; and all these
things shall be added unto you.

Take therefore no thought for the morrow:
for the morrow shall take thought for the
things of itself. Sufficient unto the day
is the evil thereof.

Like Putty In His Hands ~

When God’s plans for you,
He begins to unfold
you’ll see there’s nothing
from you He’ll withhold.

For all of His planning,
will reveal to you
the exact endeavors
He wants you to pursue.

When God’s purposes for you,
He begins to unveil
you’ll find your life to Him
you will want to avail.

For all of His purposes,
will divulge to you His will
and His designs for you
you will want to fulfill.

When God’s begins to disclose,
for you His purposes and plans
you’ll find yourself becoming . . .
just like putty in His hands!

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.

God’s Greater Purpose ~

God’s purpose is greater,
than this one of mine
for His intentions are . . .
of an eternal design.

God’s plans are smarter,
than the ones I make
for His concepts are . . .
for my soul’s own fate.

God’s ways are better,
than the ones I attempt
for His commands are . . .
righteously correct.

God’s directions are wiser,
than the ones I seek
for His instructions are . . .
to make me wise and meek.

God’s greater purpose,
I’ve come to believe . . .
for without His Son
grace I’d never receive!

~~~~~~~~

2 Timothy 1:9

“Who hath saved us,
and called us with an holy calling,
not according to our works,
but according to his own purpose
and grace, which was given us
in Christ Jesus before the world began,”

God Has A Plan ~

God has a plan,
I don’t know what it is
but, I don’t doubt it . . .
because it is His.

It’s probably not,
what I’d choose to do
for often my own thoughts
I selfishly pursue.

So, I’m going to let God,
lead me all the way
and from His plans
I’m not going to stray.

For, if I were to deviate,
from His strategy
it would be to Him
a grave travesty.

God has a plan,
I don’t know what it’ll be
but, I know it is one . . .
that will be good for me!

Jeremiah 29:11

“For I know the thoughts
that I think toward you,
saith the Lord, thoughts
of peace, and not of evil,
to give you an expected end.”

Sticky Note From God 07.31.16

For Our Own Good ~

God is at work in us,
He knows what’s good
He knows whether
we’ll do as we should.

He is in control,
over all things right
He knows whether
we’ll follow His light.

For our own good,
God’s working in us
He knows whether
we’ll doubt or trust.

He has a purpose,
each day for our life
He knows whether
it’ll bring joy or strife.

God is at work in us,
for what’s good and right
and those who love Him
do so, with all their might!

~~~~~~

Romans 8:28

“And we know that all things
work together for good to them
that love God, to them who are
the called according to his purpose.”

Sticky Note to God 07.09.16

Redeeming Our Time ~

Our weekly schedules,
our daily timetables
are not with God’s . . .
remotely comparable.

For we rush head on,
into our own projects
that on God’s purposes
we’ve no time to reflect.

We have our routines,
down pat and firm
that on God’s plans
we don’t bother to affirm.

We are so regulated,
so stiff and unbudging
that we can not feel
the Holy Spirit’s nudging.

But, if we’d slow down,
our time we’d redeem
and God’s will for us . . .
will become our regime!

~~~~~~~~

Ephesians 5:16-17

“Redeeming the time,
because the days are evil.

Wherefore be ye not unwise,
but understanding what
the will of the Lord is.”

God Knows ~

God knows,
He’s got it figured out
and it’s up to me
not to have any doubt.

God gets it,
He’s got a perfect plan
and it’s up to me
to leave all in His hand.

God has this one,
He’s got it preformed
and it’s up to me
to be transformed.

God got this,
He’s know my future
and it’s up to me
not to take a detour.

God knows,
my times are in His hands
and it’s up to me . . .
to do what He commands!

~~~~~~~~

“For I know the thoughts that I
think toward you, saith the Lord,
thoughts of peace, and not of evil,
to give you an expected end.”

My Inspiration ~

Lord, when I study the Word,
I’m filled with inspiration
for it opens up to me . . .
thought for contemplation.

I see that You desire,
for me to seek Your will
I can see my objective
is learning to be still.

I see You have a purpose,
for me so many plans
I see that I must leave
everything in Your hands.

I see that You aim,
to renew me each day
I see that I must seek
the Truth, Life and Way.

I see that You endeavor,
for me to finish the race
I see that I need to grow
daily in Your love and grace!

~~~~~~~~

2 Timothy 3:16-17

” All scripture is given by inspiration of God,
and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof,
for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

That the man of God may be perfect,
thoroughly furnished unto all good works.”
