There has to be a song

There has to be a song-

       There are too many dark nights,
       too many troublesome days,
       too many wearisome miles, 

There has to be a song- 

        to make our burdens bearable,
        to make our hopes believable,
        to transform our successes into praise,
        to release the chains of past defeats.

Somewhere- down deep in a forgotten corner of each man’s heart-

There has to be a song-

Like a cool, clear drink of water,
Like the gentle warmth of sunshine
Like the tender love of a child.
                              - There has to be a song.

- Robert Benson

Do You Ask?

James 4:3 You do not have because you do not ask".

Instead of turning to God as our first choice, how often do we make him our last resort?  And then we wonder why we don't have the guidance,comfort or provisions we do desparetly need and seek. 

If you have a need today, make God your first choice. He is a Father who loves to meet His children's needs ,if only they ask.

Mean People Need Jesus

One of my favorite bible passages is Titus 2:7-8. It is a word for "real" Christians who live in the real world and want to maintain a strong witness.

 "In everything set them an example by doing what is good. In your teaching show them integrity, seriousness and soundness of speech that cannot be condemned, so that those who oppose you may be ashamed because they have nothing bad to say about  us."

Poem For A Happy Marriage

I do my thing, and you do your thing.
I am not in the world to live up to your expectations
and you are not in this world to live up to mine.
You are you.
And I am I.
and if by chance we find each other..
it's beautiful.
