A Newborn’s Prayer

Here I am, Daddy and Mama, a gift from the Lord up above, To brighten your days with joy untold, and fill our home with love. I’m tiny, precious and fragile, but made miraculously, To fulfill God’s plan for my life and be what He wants me to be. Some say I look like you, Mom, other say more like Dad. But I have distinct traits from both of you, whether that’s good or bad. I love it when you hold me securely in your strong arms, You let me know you’re my protector in this world with all it’s...

Young Faith

One cold evening during the holiday season a little boy about six or seven years old was standing out in front of a store window. The little child had no shoes and his clothes were mere rags. A young woman passing by saw the little boy and could read the longing in his pale blue eyes. She took the child by the hand and led him into the store.

My God knows all that’s happening; Beginning to the end; His presence is my comfort; He is my dearest Friend. When sickness comes to weaken me, To bring my head down low, I call upon my mighty God;...

Are We Too Busy?

Another beautiful sunrise is shining, And casts sparkles among the trees, The sun rises higher each moment, Have we taken time, upon our knees? Do we hurry through, with God, in Prayer…. So we can rush about, this day? Do we take time….for others, to care? Or, are we “too busy”….to even Pray? The way of Life goes so much better, If we spend time with our Father, Remember Jesus…and ask for Guidance, And always Praying, daily, for one another. How quickly the day comes to an end, And the sun sinks…in the Western sky, God Loves us…and walks with...

The Big Rocks

One day, an expert in time management was speaking to a group of business students. To drive home a point, he used an illustration those students will never forget. As he stood in front of the group of high powered overachievers he said, “Okay, it is time for a quiz.” Then he pulled out a one-gallon, wide-mouthed Mason jar and set it on the table in front of him. Then he produced about a dozen fist-sized rocks and carefully placed them, one at a time, into the jar. When the jar was filled to the top and no more rocks...
