Lord Guide

So what should I do next?
I want to do what’s right
Lord, I am perplexed
And I need You to guide

I don’t want to lean on my own understanding
I learned to acknowledge You in all my ways
Tough situations You can handle
I trust You will keep me from going astray

I’ll be patient, for Your answer I’ll wait
The decision is tough to be made
So much is at stake
For a solution I pray
You are An Advisor, A Guide
And it’s so wonderful to have You on my side

Scripture Reference:
Proverbs 3:5-6  – Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Share Me (God Said)

I was in morning meditation
And thinking of all the good God has done for me throughout the years
And as I thanked a Him for this and thanked Him for that
I head His voice to say
“Share me”

He was telling me to share His goodness with others
Tell the world of all a His wondrous works
There’s someone out there suffering
There’s someone who doesn’t know that God is a healer, a deliverer
That He’s a problem solver and someone to talk to
And, He’ll walk through life with you

After all, if you ate in a restaurant and the food was delicious
Wouldn’t you tell others, so they can experience the goodness?
If you had good news like a job promotion, you’d tell everybody

The way I learned about God is someone shared Him
I would hear my relatives talk about how good He was
I didn’t know Him or have a relationship with Him
Until one day I prayed hard and asked Him to help me if He was real
He answered the prayer and, He proved He cared
So, it’s not enough for me to thank Him privately
He is to be shared.

Scripture Reference:
Psalm 105:10 Give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.

I’m So Glad To Be Your Child

As I look at you with adoration
I think of your Godly qualities
I just smile
You’re such a wonderful father
And I’m so glad to be your child

You’ve played many roles
Father, brother, uncle, son
And I’m sure the whole family will agree
That you’ve played these roles so importantly
As you’ve impacted our lives so positively

Usually kids will give parents a reason to boast
It ‘s the opposite this time
I want everyone to know
You’re such a wonderful father
And I’m so glad to be your child.

 

Written in honor of my earthly father who adhered to the heavenly Father’s words in Ephesians 6:4 that says “And ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord”.  And in Proverbs 22:6  that says “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”
