Beauty in Everything

“He has made everything beautiful in its time…” (Ecclesiastes 3:11)

My child, please savor
The beauty in everything:
The glory of morning,
The majesty of evening,

The warmth of summer,
The sparkles of snow,
The colors of the fall,
The spring blossoms to grow,

The smiles of children,
The wisdom of parents dear,
The laughter with loved ones
When they are near.

Yes, savor the beauty
Of everything I give,
As endless is the beauty
In life you live.

Perfect is the peace
When you travel My way,
Wonderful the wisdom
Of every word I say,

Bright is the joy,
Limitless the love,
Timeless the treasures
From Heaven above,

When to Me
You keep always near,
When in your heart
My truth rings clear,

When faithfully
My path you follow,
When wherever I lead
So too you go…

Yes, sweet child,
To My hand please cling,
As you will then savor
Beauty in everything!

“…give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians 5:18)

To You, O Lord,
Endless thanks we give,
For Your limitless love,
For life to live,

For grace abounding,
For beauty in all things,
For the deep joy
Your divine love brings,

For smiling children,
For families so dear,
For seasonal celebrations
Drawing loved ones near.

Yes, Lord Jesus,
Thanksgiving we raise
With songs of love,
With hymns of praise.

Thankful each day
May we be,
With our eyes fixed
On eternity,

Holding You
To our hearts so dear,
Rejoicing how You
Are always near,

Smiling in radiance
Your presence brings,
Lifting our hearts
As on angel’s wings.

Yes, wonderful it is
This life to live…
So to You, Lord Jesus,
Endless thanks we give!

Poem: Choose Love

Choose Love

Image courtesy Marcus at www.freedigitalphotos.net

“But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you…” (Matthew 5:44)

Choose love, My child,
No matter what may,
Choose love, little one,
Throughout your day,

Choose love faithfully
When all is awry,
Choose love surely
When you find yourself cry,

Yes, choose love
Through joy and pain,
Through mountains and valleys,
Through sunshine and rain,

Through each gain,
Through each defeat,
Through times of loss,
Through victory sweet.

No matter what comes
Let love be your choice,
Let it be the reason
Your heart does rejoice,

Let it be sunshine
To wash away the rain,
The brilliant beams
To melt the pain,

The miraculous light
Every raindrop to dry,
The rainbow to follow
When tears you cry.

Yes, choose love, child,
No matter what may…
And blessed will be
Your Heaven-bound way!

Poem: Beautiful Is Your Creation

Beautiful Is Your Creation

Image courtesy porbital at www.freedigitalphotos.net

“And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good.” (Genesis 1:31)

Beautiful is Your creation,
Yes, beauty You create,
Beautiful is Your creation,
Inspiring me to celebrate:

The leaves of the trees
Radiant in the Fall,
The glory of mountains
Stretching so tall,

The stillness of the lake,
A mirror divine,
The dance of the clouds
As they intertwine,

The songs of the birds
Flying high above,
The rays of the sun
Warming with love…

Yes, blissfully beautiful
Is the world I see,
Lord, I thank You
For all You give me.

In the beauty You make
How can I but see You?
Your creation reflects
Your love ever true.

Endless are blessings
I find are mine
By Your grace,
By Your love divine,

Surely in everything,
Both big and small,
You are the beauty
In the midst of it all,

Yes, beautiful is Your creation,
Beauty You create…
You, my Lord Jesus,
I celebrate!

Poem: Nothing Can Stop Jesus’ Love

Nothing Can Stop Jesus’ Love

Image courtesy Ikunl at wwwl.freedigitalphotos.net

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:38-39)

Nothing can stop

My love for you,

Dear little child,

Trust this is true:

No challenge, no mountain,

No hill too high,

No rain, no storm,

No cloud in the sky,

No angel, no demon,

No queen, no king,

No height, no depth,

No, truly nothing…

So why do allow

Your eyes to tear?

Why do you give in

To worry and fear?

Trust, little one,

Yes, trust in My love;

Keep your eyes fastened

On Heaven above,

Surely My grace

There you will see,

As you are a treasure

Forever to Me.

This is a promise

From Jesus, Your King:

My love abounds

Through everything,

It spans the distances,

Stretches across the sky,

Fills the oceans,

Climbs the mountain high…

So, My little one,

Trust this to be true:

Nothing can stop

My love for you!

I Am The Way

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me…” (John 14:6)

Child, why do you

Search the way to go?

Do you not know

The way I will show?

I am the life,

The truth, the way,

I will lead you, little one,

Yes, every day,

I will keep you on track

Toward Heaven’s gate,

Inspiring your heart

To sing and celebrate.

So take My hand,

So much I love you,

Follow My path

Perfect and true,

Walk with Me,

Stay here by My side,

In My sacred heart

Joyfully abide,

Embrace the beauty

Of this path I pave:

I love, I bless,

I inspire, I save.

Come, little one,

This path celebrate,

For I lead you onward

Toward Heaven’s gate,

Follow Me closely,

Hear the words I say,

As I am your life,

I am the way,

Yes, I am the way,

So this way follow,

As eternal joy

You will surely know!

Poem: Child, I Am Close to You

Child, I Am Close to You

Image courtesy Evgeni Dinev at www.freedigitalphotos.net

“Yet you are near, LORD, and all your commands are true.” (Psalm 119:151)

Sweet child of mine,
If you only knew
Always how close
I am to you,

How near I am
Throughout the day,
How I am next to you
Paving the way,

How I am smiling
To hold your hand,
How I unfold for you
All I have planned…

Yes, if you knew
How close I am always,
Endless would be
Your joy, your praise,

Perfect your peace,
Rich your love,
Fastened your eyes
On heaven above.

So I ask you now
My closeness to feel,
How strong it is,
How divine and real,

How sweet it is
To hold my hand,
How happy to embrace,
All I have planned,

How blissful it is
To walk this pathway,
How blessed it is
To hear all I say…

Yes, sweet child,
Know this to be true:
Each and every moment
I am close to you!

Poem: Seasons of Change

Seasons of Change

Image courtesy Evgeni Dinev at www.freedigitalphotos.net

“For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven…” (Ecclesiastes 3:1)

Crisp morning air,

Whispers of change,

Glory of seasons

You beautifully arrange,

Songs in the winds,

Celebrations in the sky,

Expectations of new things

Sparkle in my eye,

Colors transforming,

Leaves aglow,

Fragrance of Autumn

Wherever I go…

Yes, in the crisp air

My heart soars with delight,

In Your arms, Jesus,

My spirit takes flight,

For surely You whisper

In this season new,

You speak of treasures

Timeless and true,

You assure me

Good things await

When You and Your love

I celebrate.

So as the seasons

Change now blissfully,

I sing to everyone

All You do for me,

I share of Your love

Wherever I go,

As my eyes sparkle,

As my heart is aglow,

I keep my eyes fixed

On the heavenly sky,

For You alone, Jesus,

Make my heart fly…

Yes, the seasons

You beautifully arrange,

And I embrace Your love,

I embrace sweet change!

Love Abounds

“And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight…” (Philippians 1:9)

Joy fills my heart,

Love abounds each day,

Blessings grace the steps

Of my pathway,

Hope uplifts my soul,

Peace comforts my mind,

Beauty and bliss

Are in all that I find,

Wisdom enriches thoughts,

Happiness sings in all I do…

Why, sweet Lord Jesus?

Because I have You!

Yes, You are my joy,

My song to sing,

My happiness, my bliss,

My endless blessing,

My unfailing hope,

My peace to endure,

Yes, everything lovely,

Everything pure.

So I lift my heart

In grateful adoration,

I sing a song

Of love and adoration,

I rejoice in all things,

In all that I do,

I sing of Your treasures

Timeless and true,

I share Your love

With all mankind,

As Your sweet love

Captivates my mind…

Yes, joy fills my heart,

Love abounds each day,

Because You are with me

Every step of the way!

Poem: God’s Goodness

God’s Goodness

Image courtesy zirconicusso at www.freedigitalphotos.net

“You are good and do good; Teach me Your statutes.” (Psalm 119:68)

Melodies of birds

Play around me,

Gentle breezes

Dance through the tree,

Sunshine embraces,

Blue skies stretch above,

Green fields invite

With refreshing love,

Joyful music plays

Deep in my heart…

To count God’s blessings,

Where can I start?

For His goodness

Is all around,

His sweet mercies

Surely abound,

His tender touch

Is in everything,

His happy voice

Makes the birds sing,

His endless grace

Kisses each flower,

His majesty radiates

In mountains that tower.

Yes, God’s goodness

Is here and everywhere,

Inspiring every bliss,

Drying every tear.

From our Father

All goodness starts,

Refreshing our spirits,

Uplifting our hearts,

Reminding us of heaven,

Of treasures above,

Filling our hearts with joy,

With limitless love…

Yes, as birds sing

Joyfully in the tree,

Let us sing of God’s goodness

Now and eternally!
