Keep Irrigated ~
My soul is like a garden,
where God’s Word I grow
I turn it over each day
so faith I can sow.
It’s planted with grace,
hope, mercy and love
provided by God
daily from above.
It often needs weeding,
and a herbicide
so all the bad fruit
can be cast aside.
When it gets too dry,
I have a hardy supply
of Water that is Living
upon my parched out cry.
My soul is like a garden,
daily I tend to it . . .
I keep it irrigated
with the Holy Spirit!
~~~~~~~
Therefore they shall come and sing
in the height of Zion, and shall
flow together to the goodness of
the Lord, for wheat, and for wine,
and for oil, and for the young of
the flock and of the herd:
and their soul shall be as a
watered garden; and they shall
not sorrow any more at all.

When Faith Hibernates ~
Sometimes my faith feels,
as if it’s in hibernation . . .
like it decided to take off
on some wintry vacation.
Thought I know it’s alive,
I don’t feel it growing
it’s as if the living water
in it just stopped flowing.
Sometime my faith feels,
as if it’s been frozen . . .
like it just iced over
numbing my devotion.
Though I know it’s aware,
I don’t feel the fullness
it’s as if the well of life
lost its true brilliance.
Sometimes my faith needs,
a vivid reawakening
to bring it back from its . . .
self-inflected hibernating!
~~~~~~~~~
And be renewed
in the spirit
of your mind;

My Spiritual Wants ~
My spiritual wants,
every day are met
over them I’ve no need
to worry or fret.
For when I’m hungry,
on the Word I feed
it supplies my soul
with the faith I need.
When I am thirsty,
I go to the water of Life
for it gives me hope
in the drought of strife.
When I’m famished,
I feed on God’s promise
not to ever leave
neither forsake us.
When I am dry,
to the living Fountain I go
knowing more grace
out of it will flow.
My spiritual wants,
are met everyday
for Jesus is my Life
my Truth and my Way!
~~~~~~~~
Jesus said to them,
“I am the bread of life;
whoever comes to me
shall not hunger, and
whoever believes in me
shall never thirst.”

In A Slump ~
In a slump,
spiritually speaking
faith needing
a little tweaking?
Well don’t stop,
praying when dry
go ahead with God
and have a good cry.
In the dumps,
thought’s troubling
worries becoming
a little unnerving?
Well don’t stop,
raising your praise
God understands
it’s just a phase.
In a funk,
losing the battle
cares have you
a little bit rattled?
Well don’t you stop,
in God trusting . . .
until living water
again come rushing!
~~~~~~~~
“He that believeth on me,
as the scripture hath said,
out of his belly shall
flow rivers of living water.”

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
