His Promise

In times of quiet solitude,

He gently speaks to me.

Like the sweetness

of a spring rain,

That’s falls so softly.

In the stillness of the evening

When my day has come to rest.

I hear Him whisper to me,

He tells me I am blessed.

With guiding hands

he leads me;

protecting all the way.

Reminding me of His Presence

and promising to stay.

Look Up

Whenever you are sad and crying,

Look Up at Jesus, He is crying with you.

 

Whenever you are weary

from your load of cares,

Look Up at Jesus,

He is carrying your burdens.

 

Whenever you are lost, and lose your way,

Look Up at Jesus, He will guide you home.

 

Whenever you feel the pain of hurt,

Look Up at Jesus, He will comfort you.

 

Whenever you feel alone and forgotten,

Look Up at Jesus, He is always there for you.

 

Whenever you feel un-forgiven,

Look Up at Jesus, He always forgives you.

Keeper

Keeper of my heart

Lord of all my tears

The One who feels my pain

The God who calms my fears

 

Keeper of my dreams

Lord who sees the shame

The One who knows my hurts

The God who calls my name

 

Healer of my wounds

Restorer of my soul

A Friend who hears my cries

The One who makes me whole

“The sun, with all those planets moving around it, can ripen the smallest bunch of grapes as if it has nothing else to do.  Why then should I doubt His power?”
