"Be still and know that I am God,"
That I who made and gave thee life
Will lead thy faltering steps aright;
That I who see each sparrow's fall
Will hear and heed thy earnest call.
I am God.

"Be still and know that I am God,"
When aching burdens crush thy heart,
Then know I form thee for thy part
And purpose in the plan I hold.
Trust in God.

"Be still and know that I am God,"
Who made the atom's tiny span
And set it moving to My plan,
That I who guide the stars above
Will guide and keep thee in My love.
Be thou still.

He rose the dead,
Peter, Paul, and Silas he lead,
He turned water into wine,
And like no other, this man is one of a kind,
At the age of twelve he was in the temple,
He made obeying god seem so simple,
At the age of thirty, he was dipped by John the Baptist,
When he was thirty three, he was arrested, and betrayed by a kiss,
Even on Calvary, there was still work to be done,
He granted the thief on his right a paradise,
because he believed that he was God's Son,
who is this man,
that brought peace and joy to the land,
and Right now sits at god's right hand,
He hung, bled, and died,
For each and every one of us,
You can call him what you want,
But I call him Jesus.

One rainy afternoon I was driving along one of the main streets

of town, taking those extra precautions necessary when the

roads are wet and slick.

Suddenly, my daughter, Aspen ,spoke up from her relaxed position

in her seat. "Dad, I'm thinking of something."
This announcement usually meant she had been pondering some
fact for a while, and was now ready to expound all
that her six-year-old mind had discovered. I was eager to hear.
"What are you thinking?" I asked.
"The rain!" she began, "is like sin, and the windshield
wipers are like God wiping our sins away."
After the chill bumps raced up my arms I was able to respond.
"That's really good, Aspen."
Then my curiosity broke in. How far would this little girl take
this revelation? So I asked... "Do you notice how the rain
keeps on coming? What does that tell you?"
Aspen didn't hesitate one moment with her answer:
"We keep on sinning, and God just keeps on forgiving us."

Be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility for God resistith the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. (1 Peter 5:5)

icon6.gif


The world, I thought, belonged to me -
Goods, gold and people, land and sea -
Where'er I walked beneath God's sky
In those old days my word was "I."

Years passed; there flashed my pathway near
The fragment of a vision dear;
My former word no more sufficed,
And what I said was -"I and Christ."

But, O, the more I looked on Him,
His glory grew, while mine grew dim,
I shrank so small, He towered so high,
All I dared say was - "Christ and I."

Years more the vision held its place
and looked me steadily in the face;
I speak now in humbler tone,
And what I say is - "Christ alone."

Lord, how trivial seems my Calvary
When I consider Thine,
For only Simon helped Thee lift Thy cross,
But many carry mine!
I am not scorned, nor scourged, nor ridiculed,
And all along the way
Are many sweet unnamed Veronicas
To wipe the tears away.
There are no cruel nail wounds in my hands,
Nor thorns upon my brow,
And ministering angels walk with me
To smooth the way. But Thou!
How dare I think it, call it Calvary--
This sheltered life of mine--
O broken, beaten, bleeding Lord, my God,
When I consider Thine.
:bow:
Praise You Lord!

Amen!

Great poems of encouragement! Thanks for sharing.

A Pierced Man Saved Me!

The scripture says that he had no beauty
To die on the old rugged cross was his duty
A crown of sharp thorns pierced his head
A spear pierced his side after he was dead

His life on earth was full of rejection and grief
From his agony on the cross he found no relief
He was thirsty so they gave him vinegar to drink
A title was wrote on his cross with bloodstained ink

The seven words Pilate placed on the cross I will quote
JESUS OF NAZARETH KING OF THE JEWS he wrote
This man of sorrows hung dead on that bloody cross
As his mother Mary looked on and wept for her loss

Something glorious happened on the third day
His body no longer in that cold sepulchre lay
He arose from the dead and lives evermore
Left behind was the linen clothes that he wore

This pierced man Jesus saved my soul from hell
I am so happy and thankful that I could with joy yell
I know I serve a risen savior that cares for my soul
Jesus has entered into my heart and made me whole

A Creed For Those Who Have Suffered

I asked God for strength, that I might achieve.
I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey . . .

I asked for health, that I might do great things.
I was given infirmity, that I might do better things . . .

I asked for riches, that I might be happy.
I was given poverty, that I might be wise . . .

I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men.
I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God . . .

I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life.
I was given life, that I might enjoy all things . . .

I got nothing I asked for - but everything I had hoped for.

Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered.

I am, among men, most richly blessed!

Up in them rolling North Carolina hills
You can hear the sound of whipperwhills
The pine tree forest shields the ground
A carpet of their needles lies all around

The silence of the forest will shatter
As the squirrels cease their chatter
In the distance a hound dog is baying
Maybe someone is on their knees praying

God the Creator made this beautiful place
As a retreat fom the world's hurried pace
A troubled soul entered those green hills
And found the peace there better than pills

God walks the dark hills to show us the way
I know that He goes before me each day
He will lead me to heaven's bright shore
The troubles of this world will be no more
