LIFE
Life is so mesmerizing at times
Sometimes what you expect is not what is
Then at times its totally cool
One thing we can be sure of is that all things work together for good in our lives
We wake up each morning wondering what this day is going to be like
We who know best pray at the beginning of the day
Those who don't just rush in thinking whatever will be will be
Our God cares for us all in His creation
He lets the rain fall on every house
He lets the sun shine on everyone
He loves each and every soul the same
However we have free will to decide the direction of our lives
It doesn't have to be hard for anyone to live this life
Some may be wondering how they got here and why are they here
Others may be saying they just don't want to be here
Know this for a fact, God placed you here and His plans for you are good
So seek Him out, search for Him
Talk to someone who already knows Him
Find out how you can be God's friend and child
Then you will learn that your life has value and worth
God loves us all so much
He just longs for each and everyone of us to accept Him
He desires for all of us to know how much He loves us and cares
He wants you to know He sent His Son to give us life in abundance
Stay In School
He was fifteen years old
On his own living his life
Gave up parental guidance
Gave up his fellowship with God
He was a wondering sheep
A ship without someone at the rudder
Heading for destruction on the high seas
He thought he would be just fine
Then the inevitable happened
He got in a fight and drew a weapon
He left his opponent on the ground
He escaped to his home miles away
Not knowing what to do he consulted his friends
Everyone told him he should go back
He obeyed, went back and was arrested on the spot
Spent months in a maximum facility for minors
His arresting officer told him to plea guilty and the judge would send him home
Being naïve as he was he once again obeyed
The judge saw a nervous and scared young boy before her
She asked the mother if she wanted him home
Mother said yes and judge told her he is on bail and should be in school A.S.A.P.
He was registered in school and next time he went before Her Honor he was put on probation
He was grateful for the second chance and graduated from school amidst much adversity
If he can do it, so can you. Stay in School no matter what.

A great Woman In Obscurity
She was neo-sixty years old
She represents many women in this world
Her life was an example of that of many women's who had been through a lot
She had had a rough life and she now lay calmly in a hospital bed
Doctors said she had suffered a stroke and was in a coma
The God of all gods knew better, she was having well needed rest
She was getting ready to take flight but before she could, all had to be just right
Her younger sister was lead to call her brother who was in a foreign land
God had used him before to pray their mother on her way on this same flight
As soon as brother heard the news he was lead to pray
He was made to realize this was part of God's calling on his life.
It was about a couple of hours later his sister called back and gave him the news
Our sister just went home to be with the Lord.
Her life was filled with ups and downs
She had bitter struggles all her life
Lined up with or parallel to the blessings in her lifetime
She gave birth to seven sons and one daughter
She is survived by four of her sons and her daughter
She was truly blessed to birth the most sons in her family
Now as she leaves here she already has one son to represent the father, one son to represent the son of God, and one for the Holy Ghost who went home before her
Oh, their names, Paul, Cecil and Mark.

Life of A Sister
She was born the second child to her mother
Her sister was two years older than she was
They were innocent and happy helping their mother
Approximately five years later their mother had a third daughter
But Alas! Sadly the third daughter did not make it...
It wasn't long after another daughter was born to this family
Tears and grief turned to laughter
Their mother was happy but still felt an emptiness
In all her years of child bearing, she doesn't have a son
She prayed, and prayed like Hannah did centuries earlier
For God to give her a son
Well it wasn't long after that prayer
That God answered this mother
A year after her prayer, she gave birth to a son
She gave him a name from the Bible
And an alias just for herself of affection
Later someone entered her life from a failing marriage
He seemed like the right fit for a protector and provider
Or so it would seem for every man who joins himself to a single parent family
By now the two oldest sisters were teenagers
And they had no idea the turn their lives were about to take
First the oldest fell victim, then the younger
The oldest daughter was strong and fought for as long as she could
The younger sister just gave in every time she was confronted
Mother was informed but could do nothing
She was afraid of losing the contribution to her family which was quite helpful
The younger sister finally gave up
It was either suicide or run away
She chose the latter
And later came back with a man in her life and conception
She sought out a solution and found the best one for her situation

He is...
He is big
He is strong
He is mighty
He saves
He is bigger than all else
He is the strongest in existence
He's not just mighty, He's almighty
Can you guess who He is?
He heals
He sooths
He calms
He reassures
He consoles
He does all that and more
Have you guessed who He is yet?
He will be whatever anyone wants Him to be
He 'll do whatever anyone needs Him to do
He'll even supply all of our needs according to His riches in glory
Still don't know who He is yet?
He is the rock of ages
He is the shelter in a storm
He is the bridge over troubled waters
He is the answer to all questions
He's the solution to all problems
Still haven't guessed yet?
Well He is the GREAT I AM
For he says, "I AM THAT I AM!"

O How You Love Me
O how You love me
You left your home in glory for me
You came to dwell among men for me
You grew in wisdom and stature and in favor with men for me
You showed me how to live among others
You lived Your life by example and was not a bother
You came to seek and to save the lost
You girt Yourself with a towel showing You were no boss
You gave your life on a cross for me
You said for this cause You came in the world, just for me
You died there on that cross but You rose again
And proclaimed You had all power from everywhere gained
O how You Love me
O how You loved me
You came to earth, You lived, And died for me
O how You truly, truly loved me.
You left your home in glory for me
You came to dwell among men for me
You grew in wisdom and stature and in favor with men for me
You showed me how to live among others
You lived Your life by example and was not a bother
You came to seek and to save the lost
You girt Yourself with a towel showing You were no boss
You gave your life on a cross for me
You said for this cause You came in the world, just for me
You died there on that cross but You rose again
And proclaimed You had all power from everywhere gained
O how You Love me
O how You loved me
You came to earth, You lived, And died for me
O how You truly, truly loved me.
