To Seek God First ~

Lord, help me each day,
with all of my heart
to seek You first . . .
before the day I start.
Encourage me to be,
bold, brave and strong
so I’ll stand up for You
for all I see that is wrong.
Lord, help me to face,
the fears in my head
by giving over to me
Your power instead.
Encourage me to be,
even more courageous
in a world that’s become
ever more dangerous.
Lord, help me to seek,
You till I’m able to find
Your peace taking over . . .
my heart, soul and mind!
~~~~~~~~
And ye shall seek me,
and find me, when ye shall
search for me with all your heart.
The Lord is my light and my salvation;
whom shall I fear?
the Lord is the strength of my life;
of whom shall I be afraid?

When Troubles Come ~

When troubles arrive,
as they come for you
go to God first . . .
and ask Him what to do.
For He is our helper,
on whom we can rely
for divine guidance
to use and apply.
When troubles create,
pressure from within
before anxiety and fear
can even set in.
Run into the High Tower,
God will meet you there
to relieve you from
all your worry and care.
When troubles approach,
as they pursue you . . .
make sure you ask God
what He’d have you to do!
~~~~~~~~
“These things I have spoken unto you,
that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation:
but be of good cheer;
I have overcome the world.”
And I will pray the Father,
and he shall give you another
Comforter, that he may abide
with you for ever;
