Poem

I wrote another poem/hymn, (it has a tune, but I can't show you that) yesterday, and I wanted to share it. Well, here it is:

Prayers for God's Grace

My prayers,
Go with you,
With,
Love that will stay true,
In all that I do,
I will think of you,
My prayers,
Go with you,
Praying you'll stay true,
In all that you do,
May Christ be with you,
So that your paths are true,
And in all that you should do,
May your heart be too.

May your feet walk on paths of grace,
Your heart filled with love,
In every place,
May you know,
Your faith is enough.

And as you run,
Life,
This race,
My prayers go with you,
As does God's grace.

Thanks Mom!

Today my mom decided it was OK for me to make my blog available for public viewing!! Hoorah!!!!!!! *happy dance* So, she was a little worried about me having a viewable blog, and who can blame her with what's going on online, and everywhere else nowadays. Don't get me wrong, I completely understand her concern. I'm lucky to have a mother who cares enough to say no when it's necessary, and make sure it's OK when she says yes. I'm blessed to have such a godly woman as my mom. But she decided that as long as I didn't say anything personal, or anything that would make it possible for me to be found, I can. So, it's officially online, hooray!

Temptation: Two Sides of the Story

Ok, last post I talked about how close I've felt to God lately, but that's only one side of the story, and I feel like I owe it to you to give the whole story. As is often the case, just as God has been growing nearer, the Devil's temptations have been growing stronger. Day after day I find I have to turn to God just to find the strength to go on doing His will. And He is always faithful. No matter how many times I fall, how many times I push Him away saying, "I don't need you" He is always there to pick me back up and hold me in His arms. I am so blessed to have a Savior who cares for me after all I've done, who loves me and forgives me no matter how many times I fall, and who is always loving and compassionate. God is, indeed, as my favorite song says, 'mighty to save'.

God Moving

Lately I've just felt inspired. It's like God has been moving closer to me, pulling me to Him and wispering in my ear. He's been using dreams in particular to touch me. One thing after another, dreams where He speaks to me. I feel so insired. I've written quite a few poems and songs lately, and I'll leave you with one song of mine to read, for whatever it's worth. Well here it is:

Where you never shed a tear,
Where you can sleep through the night without fear,
Where loved ones and those held dear,
Are always safe and near.

That is where I'm going!
I'm on my way and I'm not slowing!
Oh, oh no,
Don't let go!
Stop and say:
Oh, oh no!
Don't let go!

So when you shed a tear,
When you lay at night full of fear,
When loved ones and those held dear,
All seem to disappear.

Oh, oh no,
Don't let go!
Stop and say:
Oh, oh no!
I won't let go!
Just say:
Oh, oh no! Don't let go!

Always remember where you are going,
Keep on your way without slowing,
Though it often seems like there's no knowing,
The one thing you know is to Whom you are going!
So keep on your way without slowing,
And don't let go!

Where you never shed a tear,
Where you can sleep through the night without fear,
Where loved ones and those held dear,
Are always safe and near.

Always remember where you are going,
Keep on your way without slowing,
Though it often seems like there's no knowing,
The one thing you know is where you are going!
So keep on your way without slowing,
And don't let go!

A New Beginning

Well. . .this is the the first ever post of my blog, ipromise. I won't say much in this post, and I'm not going to try to explain what it's about. I think I'll just let it speak for itself. I'll be adding new posts and updates every now and then, but I can't give any guarantee as to how often they'll come. Well, here's to my blog becoming sucessfull! Cheers!
