Think of Jesus, He Loves You!!!
Think of Me!
Think of me!
When the skies turn gray,
As storms form and come your way,
When the winds blow-
And the rain starts to flow,
As tears from heaven fall your way.
Think of me!
As you walk in the rain-
Trying to catch a drop on your tongue,
Waiting for just the right one,
But missing all but a very special one.
Think of me!
When the storms of life come-
As they try to shake you from my grip,
Try as they will to make you slip.
Do not let your mind wander as the storms come to you,
For that is the only real power the storms have you see;
To play tricks in your mind to make you go blind-
To the truth that will set you free.
Think of me!
When skies turn gray and rain falls on you.
Do not let life blind your eyes in good or bad times,
For that is the evil ones trick.
Think of me always and listen my child
For I will not let you go!
Think of me and do as I say
And have faith above all-
And you will see just how glorious it can be
When tears from heaven, make you think of me.

Before I Go
When my life has reached its very end,
And I take that final breath;
I want to know I've left behind,
Some "good" before my death.
I hope that in my final hour,
In all honesty I can say:
That somewhere in my lifetime,
I have brightened someone's day.
That maybe I have brought a smile
To someone else's face,
And made one moment a little sweeter
While they dwelled here in this place.
Lord, please be my reminder
And whisper softly in my ear,
To be a "giver," not a "taker,"
In the years I have left here.
Give to me the strength I need,
Open up my mind and my soul
That I might show sincere compassion,
And love to others before I go.
For if not a heart be touched by me,
And not a smile was left behind ..
Then the life that I am blessed with,
Will have been a waste of time.
With all my heart, I truly hope
To leave something here on earth ..
That touched another, made them smile
And gave to my life ... worth.

Life's Storms
We are such fragile creations in this world.
We form habits some good some bad.
We fall in to relations, that led us into temptations.
Creating years, of chains of events,
that we have no control over.
Mounting emotions. Moving from place to place.
Not allowing ourselves to be who we are.
But instead what we have become.
As life goes by almost seemingly unnoticed by us.
We begin to wake up.
And see what is around us.
We find ourselves in the middle of a ragging storm.
Full of emotions, and uncontrollable habits.
That seem to us in their grip.
A storm of financial debt.
As the storm rages in our lives, we have become weak,
And unable to see any way out.
It is at this moment, that we must open our eyes, and see that,
We are not alone, in the storm.
For the Living God,
has provided us a way out. Own voices.
To not ask, is to sadden him Because he wants to help his children.
He is the one who can com the storm in our lives.
And in doing so, we realize we can trust him.
Thus increasing our faith in him.
Our belief, and love for him.
Knowing that it was he that guided us through the storms.

Stone Hearts
Stone hearts so they say
Hearts that are lost and will not obey
Wandering around thinking all is all right
While they are fooled and blinded to the light
As there hearts sink farther down to the ground
And inside deep, deep, down, know something is not quite right!
Stone hearts are hard, heavy, Cold and alone
And at times wish they too had a home
If only they would obey and come to the light this very day
But what of the children of the light
Have they really shined, so bright?
Did they open their arms and their hearts of warmth?
So the children of stone could see
The Fathers grace and mercy
And be blessed continually
Or did they move away?
Walking on the street the other way
Stone Hearts so they say
Amazing to see, for God's creation cries out to thee
Just look at that very tree
It reaches into the sky with arms stretched out
Spreading forth its leaves with a silent joyful shout!
For in its own way, it praises God for all that He has done
For little things such as the rain and the sun
And in return, the tree gives its breath to you and me
So stone hearts can you see,
There are many warm hearts crying out for thee
For if God loves us, and even provides for a tree
How much more His love is for thee!
Stone hearts do not turn away
For God loves you to this very day
No matter what you have done
He is still there waiting for you just like the prodigal son
His love is true full and free
And His arms are stretching out so much farther than that tree
For before you were born He knew
And He planned your salvation too
So stone hearts look to Him so you may see
His arms stretched out and nailed to that very tree!
Why you ask did He? And how could it be?
It's simple stone heart
He loves you, can't you see?
