IN GOD WE TRUST

 


The desires of our heart,

is what we seek.

We pray to the Lord,

we make our plea.

Our expectations are high,

we can't wait to see.

But how will we react,

if it wasn't meant to be?

Remember his promises,

and also we're blessed.

Then we trust God,

to do what's best.

His ways are better,

and he's amazing indeed.

We can be sure,

he'll provide what we need.

The problems we encounter,

the struggles we have.

It's hard to endure,

when there's a setback.

What God has allowed,

he has a plan.

So remember our life,

is in his hands.

So it's very important,

we trust in him.

Because what he started,

he will complete it.

He turns things around,

and it brings him glory.

What he did for us,

we'll share our story.

I'M SO THANKFUL

 


I'm so thankful,

where do I begin.

Jesus died for me,

for all my sins.

He took my place,

just like he planned.

Nobody else can do,

what Jesus can.


I'm so thankful,

I've been blessed.

Whether it's plenty,

or even less.

But most important,

I have a Savior.

Jesus has helped me,

more than ever.


I'm so thankful,

for family and friends.

And all the opportunities,

that God sends.

I have good health,

and money to pay bills.

He provides all my needs,

according to his will.


I'm so thankful,

for food and provisions.

A nice place to live,

and also God's protection.

To know God's word,

helps me even more.

And that's even better,

than what I was praying for.

CARE OF WIDOWS

 


There are many widows,

of men and women.

You may not know them,

but they're alone again.

With illness or disability,

they all face loneliness.

They wait for someone,

they sure do miss.

But not a phone call,

no knock on the door.

Not even the ones,

they were looking for.

Depression creeps in,

then along comes fear.

They're hope slowly fades,

when no one is there.

YOU CAN VISIT A WIDOW,

AND BRING YOUR SMILE.

BE QUICK TO LISTEN,

AND STAY FOR AWHILE.

LOVE CAN BE SHOWN,

IN SO MANY WAYS.

LET'S FIND SOMEONE,

TO BRIGHTEN THEIR DAYS.

There are many people,

who lost their loved one.

They depend on others,

and hope to see someone.

The visits become rare,

all they see is a TV.

They have stories to share,

if they had company.

But no one in sight,

lonely days and night.

The tears they weep,

they can't even sleep.

With sickness or pain,

they're hopelessness remain.

Just four walls in the room,

a sure recipe for gloom.

YOU CAN VISIT A WIDOW,

AND BRING YOUR SMILE.

BE QUICK TO LISTEN,

AND STAY FOR AWHILE.

LOVE CAN BE SHOWN,

IN SO MANY WAYS.

LET'S FIND SOMEONE,

TO BRIGHTEN THEIR DAYS.

FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT

 


For a good tree,

it's recognized by it's fruit.

For a follower of Jesus,

it's by the fruit of the Spirit.

Just like the branch,

can't live without the vine.

We can't be fruitful,

without the nine.

It begins with love,

and joy will be there too.

There's peace you'll find,

and also they'll be kind.

Patience will be shown.

and gentleness will be known.

We will also witness,

if there's any goodness.

Faithfulness is vital,

and even self-control.

So what we view,

is the good they do.

For any bad fruit,

they will be thrown.

So we live in the Spirit,

and not on our own.
