Never Give Up! Never Give In!

Savior, Redeemer, kind, loving friend,
No matter the challenge his love never ends.
 Through the thick and the thin, through the highs and the lows,
His strength will be with you where ever you go.
Do you trust Him enough to follow His path?
With so many that smirk, that point and then laugh.
The trail has been set, the rod is secure.
Just hold on tight. Do not be deterred.
The steps that you take will your whole life determine.
You must bring it home, not leave at the sermon.
 He's given us all that we need to survive
Follow His counsel, your spirit will thrive.
Bodies grow weak and bones oh so brittle
But compared to what's next it means very little.
The armor of God is what gets us through.
Read from the scriptures! They're waiting for you.

The knowledge inside more precious than gold.
Just keep on reading and more will unfold.
It's all that you need to stay in the right
Follow the guidance and you'll win the fight.

The Weaver

My Life is but a weaving
between my Lord and me;
I cannot choose the colors
He worketh steadily.
Oft times He weaveth sorrow
And I, in foolish pride,
Forget He sees the upper,
And I the under side.

Not til the loom is silent
And the shuttles cease to fly,
Shall God unroll the canvas
And explain the reason why.
The dark threads are as needful
In the Weaver's skillful hand,
As the threads of gold and silver
In the pattern He has planned.
He knows, He loves, He cares,
Nothing this truth can dim.
He gives His very best to those
Who leave the choice with Him.

Savior of the World

I love this video about Jesus Christ. I know that He lives! I know that He suffered and died for me so I can live again. He is my Savior and Redeemer. In the sacred name of Jesus Christ, amen.

Child of God


Hello, how are you?
 Is the old, worn out question.
Just fine. The reply 
Without any expression.
Behind every face 
And every blank stare
Is a child of God, 
A spirit that cares.
A soul that is crying
 Out from inside
A nobler spirit 
Trying to find
Their sense of direction 
That may be suppressed
The compass, the pathway 
On which to progress.
The world that is pulling 
From every which way
Confusing the spirit
 And leading astray.
Some choose to listen and, yes,
 They do fall.
Others will fight and
 Continue to call
On their Father in Heaven, 
He's always there,
He quietly listens 
To each earnest prayer.
And when we are ready 
To humbly follow
He sends His reply 
Unlike others, not hollow.
He enlightens our mind 
With the spirit's sweet tone.
It's His work and His glory 
To bring His children back home.
