Be still, My precious child,

Know I am here;

Be still, My daughter,

Your God is ever near.

Let not your thoughts travel,

Focus solely on Me;

Feel My embrace of love,

My kiss of eternity.

Come into My arms,

Still your heart and soul;

Come to your Master,

He who makes you whole.

I shower you with graces,

I bless your every day;

Come nigh unto Me, child,

To hear the words I say.

Who is like Me?

Who loves you like I do?

Who has given his all

Out of pure love for you?

No one loves you deeper

Than I do, My child;

My love is eternal,

Yet tender and mild.

Be still then, daughter,

Quiet your mind and heart;

Rest in My presence,

Know we will never part.

I invite you here often,

To these precious moments still;

Bask in My brilliance here,

Delight in doing My will.

Forever we are together,

United for all eternity;

Savor My limitless love,

Sit in stillness with Me.

Rest here in My arms,

Still your heart and soul;

Feel the beat of My heart,

I shall make you whole.

Is it not sweet to be here?

To focus solely on Me?

Feel My embrace of love,

My kiss of eternity.

Yea, be still, My child,

Know I am here;

Be still, and know I love you,

Forever I am near.

The Lord tells us, “Be still and know that I am God.”

How do you savor the Presence of God in stillness?

My Peace I Give to You

Reflections in the Lake by Tom Curtis

“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.”

John 14:27

My peace I give to you, My child,

May it your soul embrace;

My peace I give to you,

Do you feel My showering grace?

Not as the world gives to you

Is the peace that I now give;

It does not waver in the wind,

It endures in the life you live.

Indeed the peace I give you

Endures for all eternity;

Precious is this peace I give,

My child, this do you see?

Come to Me, My daughter,

In My arms I shall hold you;

Here you will feel My love,

You will taste My peace true.

Should the winds rage about,

Should the storms be fierce,

I shall hold you, My child,

In these hands once pierced.

I can calm the ocean waves,

The raging winds I can still;

I ask only that you cling to Me,

That you abide in My will.

Stay nigh unto Me, child,

Do not wander from My way;

I shall pave your path with peace,

Shining upon you day to day.

“Lord, I delight to be with You,

Your presence is my peace;

My life I live for Your glory,

To You all things I do release.”

“What have I to worry, Lord,

When I am in Your arms?

Here nothing my soul fears,

Nothing my heart alarms.”

“The ocean waves may crash,

The angry winds may blow,

Yet peace I know here with You,

As I follow the Way You go.”

Daughter, My heart delights

To hear these words you say;

Yea, cling to Me, your Lord,

I shall grace your pathway.

I shall fill you with My peace

This day and for all eternity;

Precious is this peace I give,

I know, My child, you see.

Not as the world gives to you

Is the peace to you I give;

Lo, I am with you always, child,

In your very heart I live.

My peace I give to you, child,

May it your soul embrace;

Sing of this peace with Me,

Dance in My showering grace.

~*~

How have you experienced the peace Jesus gives?

How is the peace of God different than the peace of the world?

Labor Day

Poem: Labor Day

Jesus said to them, “My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working.” John 5:17

(Send as an Inspirational Christian eCard!)

~*~

May peace and rest embrace you

On this Labor Day;

How fervently you labor,

Faithful are you to the Way.

Throughout our great Nation

Our workers we celebrate;

Yet let us not forget also

The One who does create.

Always at His work

Is our dear Father above;

Unceasing He is in His mercy,

Limitless in His love.

With hearts of rejoicing,

Let us praise the Holy One;

Glory and honor belong

To the Father, Spirit and Son.

God gives the power to work,

He gives also the gift to rest;

He works all things for our good,

Indeed all things for best.

My brother, sister and friend,

How grateful I am for you;

Our Father gives us strength

For all the work we do.

Brother, sister, one and all,

Come and rejoice with me;

Rest and refresh on Labor Day,

Lift songs for God’s glory.

For unceasing is His labor,

He is Life, the Truth, the Way;

Let us embrace the rest God gives

On this Labor Day.

~*~

How will you embrace rest and peace on Labor Day?

How will you celebrate God’s unceasing labor and love?
