Keep the Faith

I keep the Faith no matter what comes my way
Man can plunder my belongings; Man can't take my soul away

I live in Joy no matter what comes today
I have a much greater possession. Man
can’t remove away

I have confidence that I stand firm
That I might have the endurance to do the Will of God

Striving every day to follow his commandments 
Oh Lord, please spare me the rod

Jesus came to save, not to condemn
Bowing my heart, thanking Him again and again

Hebrews 10 34-36

Heb 10:34  For you had compassion on those in prison, and you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an abiding one.
Heb 10:35  Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.
Heb 10:36  For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.

Oh Death

Oh, death, where is your victory
Oh, death, where is your sting
Jesus Christ removed them so that I might sing

He took the burden of all my sins
And cast them in the deepest sea
Setting me forever eternally free

What above heaven and earth could save me from my sins
The incredible power of God where His mighty love begins

Why do I have Joy in any circumstance today 
Because God's Son Jesus came into my heart to stay

I bow my head on bended knee
Continually thanking Him for being so gracious to me

1 Corinthians 55-56

55 
“Where, O death, is your victory?    Where, O death, is your sting?”[b]
56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ

Berkeley Ford

My visit to Berkeley Ford was a most pleasant experience
Everyone I met had great confidence 

From sales to service
No one there made me nervous

The greeting on the phone was most unexpected. 
A greeting with It's a Wonderful Day is rarely detected 

I would recommend anyone looking for a Ford Dealership 
 You only need to make one trip

Upon leaving the dealership today
Cassidy, Kerrie, and Darcy were helpful in every way

Praying

Painting by Spike O’Dell W4WGN Brentwood, Tennessee
He left me for another today
Taking part of my heart away

I'm not religious. I have nowhere to turn
I'm just praying somehow; he will See a way to return

If this is not possible, oh God, mend my broken heart
Could you help me in someway to find a new start

The price for shipping

Having shipped jars of honey by ups
The surprising cost gave me no rest

Oh Gods, precious Love was so free
The price he paid for shipping to me

After shipping, did I bring it inside
Is it on my doorstep, where it will reside

God, the most Precious Gift He sent
Without opening, I will never be content

His Love is Sweeter than the sweetest honey
Worth far more than any amount of earthly money

Thank You, God, again for sending Jesus, your son
That I might have eternal life, and the race won

We the People

We, the People, assemble at Christmas. 
Setting our differences aside.
We calm our spirits from the bustling world, removing our haughty Pride.

Peace arriving at this mystical time of year 
brings much Love and Joy with great cheer.

Taking a moment to bow our heads, asking for Peace on Earth and Good Will toward men.
Knowing beyond all Hope, this Love will be fulfilled over and over again.
