Decisions Made

Sitting at the kitchen table
Where topics are discussed, and decisions made
Looking at an empty chair
I felt the presence of You sitting there

This got me thinking or caused a flashback
Of how through all these years and many tough times
You treated me special by showing unconditional favor and love
Whether I caused myself to fall or got knocked down
You always lifted me up

Like the time You settled the case before it went to trial
The time You healed when doctors couldn’t treat what they found
The broken relationships You allowed to be restored
The many infractions and sins committed that You ignored
The many ways You blessed financially
Time and time again, you responded to my pleas

Many decisions hade to be made by just me
many days of lonely
But You was always there
Providing guidance, love and care
Thank you, Lord, thank you Jesus for your mercy and grace
Thanks for helping me with decisions made.

Supper With Jesus

Jesus said He stands at the door and knocks
And He will come in and sup with whoever hears his voice (Revelation 3:20)
If He was still in physical form among us
I would love to sit down and have supper with Jesus
I would bring out my best china, linens and flatware
Buy the freshest vegetables and meats to prepare
Invite my closest to partake and share

What a privilege it is to have a personal relationship with Jesus
With Him there are no boundaries on what I can discuss
Nothing gets repeated, so Him I trust
I don’t have to ashamed to say anything because He lifts me up
In fact, the meal conversation would center around what He’s done
The blessings He’s bestowed, the miracles He’s performed
It would be a thank You for the care and love He’s shown

But I know I don’t need a meal to converse with the Lord
He’s always available through prayer
And the Holy Spirit is any and every where
It just would be nice to see Him face to face
But I’ll wait until I get up there.
