Choose to love instead of hate.
Avoid temptation to berate.
If another angers you
Do not react or fuss or "stew".
Don't let others rob your peace.
Let love and kindness have increase.
It breaks down barriers and walls,
Avoiding arguments and squalls.
"And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."

Time Is A Gift
So easily time slips away,
And maybe there will be a day
When we wonder where it went
And cannot think how it was spent.
We need to plan so that we could
Go do the things we want or should.
Looking back we won't be sad
But have great reason to be glad!
"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."

Spread The Good News
In this time of spiritual drought
Spread the Good News all about.
When people tremble and have fear,
Good news they will want to hear!
The Good News is God's loving plan
To bring salvation's seal to man,
That he may enter Heaven's door
And be with God forevermore.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved."

Discovering God's Purpose
Opportunity often may just not be seen,
But God gives us insights His timing to glean.
When we discover His purpose and plan,
We can step into what He once began.
When we catch sight of what He designed.
And the depths of His wisdom and "gold" we have mined,
Our lives are transformed from normal to bright,
Filled with His goodness and blessings and light.
"For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them."

Quest For Excellence
Many are today's distractions,
Offering myriad satisfactions.
Sadly, some do not have worth
Nor to excellence give birth.
Always we should have a quest,
To use our time for what is best.
Time we spend in worthy cause
Will earn a Heavenly applause.

And soar in faith with unmarred sight.

And spend some time on bended knee!
From the news we need to flee,
Discerning truth so we stay free.

Heal our land and set us free
From those who squelch our liberty.
Let us rise up strong again
Transformed and healed from where we've been.
"Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord , and the people whom He has chosen as His own inheritance."
Psalm 33:12 KJV

And heal our land from deep travail.
Lord, we need You in this hour.
You're our fortress, our high tower.
Heal our land and set us free
From those who squelch our liberty.
Let us rise up strong again
Transformed and healed from where we've been.
"Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord , and the people whom He has chosen as His own inheritance."
