Just Today

Monday, March 16th, 2009

I heard my Savior say,
“My dear, you need to pray.
Tell me of your needs, wants, and desires;
Just today.

I am hereService to listen and to answer as I will.
I love you and you need to be still.
There is a mission for you to do for me;
Just today.

I have a purpose for you, this day.
You must leave your comfort zone for me.
One of your neighbors is lost.
You need to go and win him for Jesus;
Just today.

One of my children is so lonely today,
Sick and frail, and needs a friend.
You need to go visit for me.
That is the way it needs to be;
Just today.

Just Seeking

Monday, March 16th, 2009

Today I am seeking God’s will for my life

I want to know what His will is for me

Should I go or should I stay that is what I say

Just seeking

 

Where is God when I need this answer today

I am seeking His will in a decision to make

I bowed my head and earnestly prayed

To show me His will  just this day

He doesn’t answer right away

Just seeking

 

Sometimes I am so confused if it’s God’s will or mine

I know I make mistake not waiting for His time

Just seeking

 

Today I am seeking answers to questions in my life

When He doesn’t answer in my timing it brings strife

Just seeking

 

I am seeking Lord your answer today

Please let me know if I should go or should I stay

Just seeking

 

Jesus is the one that I desire to please

Help me as I am seeking put me at ease

Just seeking

 

Thank you for loving me and showing me the way

As I  leave these decisions in your care

Now my prayer will be answered and I will share

Just Stop By

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

I miss you, today, and wish you would stop by.

If ever I needed someone to just come and say, “Hi,”
It’s today, when I feel so lonely and shy.

Don’t know why there are so many days that pass by
That no one comes to see me, to make my day brighter.

I can remember when I was the one who went by to check
On the lonely and depressed, just to make them smile.

Now, it is I that is homebound and tired.
Seems as if no one remembers those times …

When I knocked on The door with a great big, “Hello!”
To see how you were, if you needed a place to go.

Just to cheer you up and to see you smile
Was enough for me to drive many miles.

Would you stop by so I will not cry?
I am trying real hard.  But, I feel the big sigh.

That makes me weary, when I wonder why
Everyone is too busy just to stop by.

 

Just Jesus

Friday, February 20th, 2009

The only thing that matters this very day

Is the one that I need to hear me pray

 

Just Jesus is the only one that can forgive my sin

That is the way that my prayer life began

 

Just Jesus loved me enough for me to have eternal life

That brings me much comfort as I kneel to pray

Knowing he cares what I have to say

 

Just Jesus can guide me and keep me safe

As I stroll through another day

Hoping not to make too many, mistakes

Just Jesus is enough to turn the frown into a smile

 

When I think of the price he paid and is alive

Just Jesus can fill the emptiness that often comes my way

He holds my hand and comforts me through my fears and dismay

Just Jesus Is ENOUGH


Just Dust Me, Lord

Friday, February 20th, 2009

He made Adam from a piece of clay.
That was a very exciting day.

He made Eve, a beauty I believe.
Then, she sinned and had Adam to do as she pleased.

That day brought on so much shame.
It was the day that humans understood pain.

Just dust them, Lord.

 He made me and, Lord, I have sinned.
That is how I know that His love for me began.

He died on that cross that I might be saved.
Just dust me, dear Lord, that I will behave.

How loving am I as I look at my broken friends;
The ones that, today, I know that will stray.

Is my love unconditional, as you say.
Just dust me, Lord, today as I pray.

You gave me good ears that I might hear.
Do I use my lips for bringing my brothers down?

Help me, dear Lord, to kneel and to pray
For forgiveness of sin that is committed today.

Just dust me, Lord, as I seek your face.

 Father, mold me into the person that you desire me to be.
Help me to be wise and obedient, you see.

I need to be refreshed and forgiven of sin.
It is today that I desire a new life will begin.

Just dust me, Lord, as I really try to be better.

Help me to look at the poor and afflicted through your eyes.
Reach out a hand to share my goods before they die.


I see so many that need a helping hand from me, I cry.
Just dust me, Lord, that I will really try.

 

God bless my family and friends this moment.
My desire is to help them know you as I search more.

May they be blessed and realize that it came from you.
Slow them down to take a deep breath, to realize that you are the best.

Just dust me, Lord, that I can be
The example that you would have me to be.

Just dust me, Lord, for you are the only one
That can do that for me and make me your voice.

My desire is to serve you in any want you want.
Just dust me, today, before someone else is lost.



 

Jesus, Were You Anxious?

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009


My dear Jesus, were You anxious
When You saw the soldiers coming near
To take You to that cross that Your loved ones feared?



Jesus, did You once wonder why You had to suffer
For us children that would someday have a chance
To accept or reject our Salvation that You offer?

Jesus, were You anxious when You saw the tears

Of Your dear mother and the ones that loved You so?

I want to thank You, today, as I feel anxious.
Although, I know that You are here with me, holding my hand,
As I face a difficult time in my life.

I say, “Well, I am only human.”
You were human on that day, my Jesus.

Did You once have anxiety, my Savior?

Thank You for going to that cross for me.
I know that You made a way for me
Throughout all eternity.

Thank You for showing me so much strength
In the crises that I face,
I give it all to You because You did, that day,
For me.

 

 

Jesus Said Call Me

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

There is a little verse in God’s Holy Word
That makes a promise that I have read and heard
“Call on me and I will answer you {Jere.33:3}
I will show you great and mighty things that you do not know
What a blessing that verse is to me
He promised everything, you see
When our heart is right, then seek HIS help
He is there for the asking, if only we ask
God doesn’t lie like we folks do
Everything He promised He will always do
My problem is holding on to the hurts
The disappointments that are sure to come
If only I would give them to Him
I would get help right away
God is so good to His children in every way
We are stubborn and like what we say
Thank you for the great thing you have given
to this child of yours that is so driven

Jesus Loves You and Me

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

As a child I often sang, ‘Jesus loves me’

Now I know that He does and He loves you

Enough to go to the Old Rugged Cross,

That we would live and not be lost

Yesterday I read, in Mark, about the wheat and the tares

It scares me to think that I might be a tare,

Just a bundle of junk and no service to Him

When I think of what he did for you and for me,

I am so humbled and try to be more of a servant for Him

Today as I go about my day and pray,

I feel His presence in so many ways

Jesus loves me this I know, the Bible tells me so

What I know is that he loves you just as much as me

Serve Him today, kneel down and pray

You will feel his presence and His love for you today.

Jesus Is His Name

Saturday, February 7th, 2009


Jesus is my Saviour's name.
What a beautiful name it is to me.



He knew me before I was born and I have a purpose.

We talk about everything under the sun.


Each day, as we visit and run all around,
I never have anyone to ask me about Jesus.

When I visit someone or go to the mall,
Often, I tell people what He has done for me.

I don't need to preach to them or come on strong,
Just be myself and talk about my Saviour.
 
As a senior citizen, I enjoy telling about my sons,
How much fun my grandchildren are, and brag about my life.

It is easy to let others know that Jesus is the one
That is so dear to me.  He loves me more than I could ever love.
 
He died on the cross that I might live forever with Him.
One day may come that I cannot speak.

Hopefully, the ones that pass my way, this day,
Will know that Jesus is most important to me.
 
Tomorrow may never come and I have to ask myself
"Would it be fine with Him, the way that I have lived, today?"

If I could measure my goodness on the scale of one to ten,
To be honest, I am not good.  Zero it would be because of my sin.

Regardless of how good I try to be,
I am only a sinner saved by GRACE.

Jesus I Love you

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

Jesus I love you and thank you for your love for me
If it were not for your love, I could not get through the day
That is the reason I kneel and pray
Jesus I Love you

 

You came into the world to save me from sin
You are my father, my Lord and my King
I am so humbled by your love I don’t know where to begin
To tell you ,how much I love you

 

Thank you for getting me through this valley today
Pull me back up on the mountain, I know I won’t stay
It is the valley where I call on you and pray
Jesus I love you

 

You are my friend who rides with me in the car
Everywhere I go there is where you are
I do not fear because you are there
Jesus I love  you

 

When my heart is breaking and there are tears
You lift me up and take away my fears
God I am so blessed to know you are there
Jesus I love you

 

Thank you for giving me a family that I love
Because of you I know one day I will fly like a dove
To Heaven where there will no heartbreak or tears
Jesus I love you
