My Faith and Trust ~
My faith and trust,
in Jesus I put
every day I look
for His wise input.
I know His advice,
is all that I need
and so His words
in my Bible I read.
It’s there He shows me,
where I should go
how much I need Him
for my faith to grow.
It’s there in His love,
He roots and grounds me
with the faith to believe
in what I can’t see.
My faith and trust,
is in Jesus only . . .
for I trust in Him
with my heart wholly!
~~~~~
That Christ may dwell
in your hearts by faith;
that ye, being rooted
and grounded in love,

Autumn Blessings ~
Autumn brings to the soul relief,
as hot Summer days slip to an end
God sent the season for weary hearts
to restore, repair and mend.
Unlike the Autumn trees,
that shed their changing leaves
God sent the season for failing hearts
to adhere, embrace and cleave.
Just as with the Autumn winds,
there comes a refreshing rain
God sent the season for fraying hearts
to increase, grow and gain.
The Autumn sun is slow to climb,
and dips earlier into the night
God sent the season for sleepy hearts
to rise, shine and awake in His light.
God gave to us the Autumn season,
so we could have a respite and rest
for it is the season for our beset souls
to see how much we are truly blessed!

“Therefore my heart is glad,
and my glory rejoiceth:
my flesh also shall rest
in hope.”

Growing In Grace ~
Growing in grace,
good fruit producing
things of the world
no longer seducing.
Trusting in the Word,
and all of its facts
believing God has . . .
our fronts and our backs.
Depending on Him,
each and every day
willing to be led
along the righteous way.
Having the faith,
to keep moving on
no longer willing
to be satan’s pawn.
Growing in knowledge,
wisdom and grace
takes a faith and trust
all need to embrace!
~~~~~~~~
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.

Growing In Jesus ~
Grow in grace today,
plant faith in your heart
let it root itself in love . . .
and more grace it’ll start.
Grow in wisdom today,
let it dig its way into you
let it branch out and touch
everything you say and do.
Grow in humility today,
let meekness bud inside
so compassion can begin
to develop and divide.
Grow in charity today,
let is spring up and rise
make a contribution
no matter what the size.
Grow in knowledge today,
harvest from the Word
reap from the truth you find
then share all you’ve heard.
Grow in grace today,
grow in knowledge too
grow so others will see . . .
Jesus growing in you!
~~~~~~~~
“Grow in grace, and in
the knowledge of our
Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ.”
To him be glory both
now and for ever. Amen.
“But speaking the truth in love,
may grow up into him in all things,
which is the head, even Christ:”

For Grace To Grow ~
For grace to grow,
it needs to be fed . . .
our Bibles must be
everyday read.
For without knowledge,
of our Lord and Savior
will never be able to
duplicate His behavior.
For grace to bloom,
it needs to be watered
lest on the straight way
we will surely faltered.
For without understanding,
on our spiritual path
one day we’ll encounter
God’s righteous wrath.
For grace to grow,
our faith we need to nourish
for it to increase . . .
in Jesus it must flourish!
~~~~~~~~
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.

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!~~~~~~~
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
