You say there are no miracles

You tell me not to pray

You don’t believe in God

Or that he is here today

 

I tell you look again my friend

Look hard and really see

There are many miracles happening today

God is very near you and me

 

The car that rolls several times

As it is crushed to cold flat steel

And the one who crawls out without a scratch

I tell you GOD IS REAL!

 

The one who wants to take their own life

They cannot go on today

Somehow the plan fails

And then they find a way

 

You say there are no angels

They surely can’t be real

What about the car that missed you

And the peace you suddenly feel?

 

You tell me that the Bible is just a book

And Jesus only history

I tell you that HE is real

And you better look and see

 

When you stop and listen long enough

You will KNOW the things I say

Are not just “fate” happenings

For Jesus lives today!!!

Thank Him Too

Comments Off on Thank Him Too

It wasn’t always easy to go the extra mile

To hold your hand or hug you

Or wear for you a smile

 

Through nights of tears, to stay awake, sometimes seemed so hard

To sort through troubles inch by inch

Seemed more like yards and yards

 

But Jesus said, “Hang in there Robin, I need you to obey,

Give this one my love

For she needs you much today.

 

I will be there too, and together we will teach

Then I have others for you to love

And many goals for you to reach.”

 

“Ok Lord”, I said through tears my own, “but I am lonely too”

“Do for these”, he replied with a hug

“Then I shall do for you.”

 

So I stood up tall and took his hand, I said, “ok Lord – let’s go”

We marched together day by day

Little did you know

 

As I had all the answers to your problems and they faded away fast

It was really He who guided me

And threw your troubles past

 

For I know not what the future holds in store for me you see

My problems seem so great sometimes

I think, “where can He be?”

 

But I know because I love you in my heart and always will

That He will always guide me inch by inch

Or hill by hill

 

He told me not to judge you, or so I would be judged

So instead I truly loved you

As up your hills we trudged

 

I tried not to give opinions that would lead you to dismay

But asked Him to answer through me

And help me lead the way

 

As you thank me for all the things that I have done for you

I would like to ask only one thing

Please thank Jesus too.

Blessed Am I

Comments Off on Blessed Am I

No, I’ve never had to go hungry

Or sleep out in the cold

I’ve no relatives dying, at present, of AIDS

Or because they are old

I’ve never gone without clothing

A blanket or a bed

And I’ve never been without friendship

Or a shoulder for my head

 

A marriage of great turmoil

Broken bones and heartfelt pain

Seemed hard enough to bear

When I faced my hardest rain

I felt I’d been deceived

So to God I heavily wept

Over all my trials and suffering

And my monetary debts

 

If only I had seen how truly

Blessed I have been

For there are so many greater sufferings

That I must take to him

He’s opened up my eyes to see

The poor and hungry dying

It’s now for them I feel

And for them I do my crying

 

Some know him, some do not

But for all of them I pray

That somehow he will use me

To brighten up their days

There is AIDS there is HUNGER

There are CHILDREN WITHOUT HOMES

There are ADDICTS there are PRISONS

And STREETS where the LONELY roam

 

So when you cannot pay your bills

And your lover lets you down

When you feel you can go no further

Just take a look around

Stop judging others long enough

To truly LOVE and CARE

For by the grace of God, it’s them

Instead of you that’s there

 

Then thank your Heavenly Father

Get on your knees and pray

That he will use you too

To help another find the way!

Why is it that we always wish

for that, that we do

 not have

When right in front of our eyes

is the greatest miracle

of all

The gift of life!
