When Time Passes By

The freshness of morning clearing my mind.  Seeing God’s glory brings newness of time.  The stillness of night, pillow under my head, thoughts of my loved ones as they rest in bed.  Praying to God, my life passing by,  Can I do better if harder I try?  Will my children love me when I’m feeble and old?  Oh, God, how they do grow!  My skin all wrinkled, all beauty gone, will he still kiss me, will love be shown?  Yes, Father, it will all be beauty, though time ages us. We will make it, Dear Lord, for in You we trust.

You’re Not Alone

Do you feel all alone; no one loves you or really cares?  Feeling helpless, no one to talk to, no one to share?  Spending your time in boredom, wondering how happiness will come.  Seeking it out, doing your thing finding your joy, it fades like a sting. You will find joy and happiness when you give it to someone else.  It comes back when you’re not thinking of self.  Life is worth more like living when you do a lot more giving, there is always someone worse off than you so don’t get a selfish attitude. So if your lonely, unloved, all things are wrong, give your life to Jesus, in Him you’re not alone.
