God took care of me every day. I was not aware He was by my side Not realizing from where my blessings came, in Him I did not abide He took care of me then, and He takes care of me now Not understanding, only In God’s Love, l humbly bow October 1, 2023 MarkWaldrop
My whole life is something I want to share I am afraid I will be exposed to many a glare Do I need to change some things before I begin to pray Would I be embarrassed by what Jesus would see if he came to stay I found through my Saintly Mother one day My whole life is a constant prayer every day Thank you, God, for sending Jesus my way October 1, 2023 MarkWaldrop
With God, small is Great There is no need to hesitate Whatever befalls you on your way He will not let you go far astray He can take a small action of Love Turning it into something Heavenly from above Doing precisely what God says Shows faith in how Great God is I bow my head and thank Him every day For sending His Son Jesus to guide the way October 1, 2023 MarkWaldrop
The cool quiet and the calm of an early morning dawn The serenity of the moment brings to mind a Psalm Psalm 131: I have calmed and quieted my restless soul Awakening early to see Your Majestic Scenes unfold How Great Thou Art, Oh Lord, Your Creation beyond words Only explainable through the Heavenly sound of the birds Thank You, God, for Your beautiful creation That brings peace of mind and exultation September 30, 2023 MarkWaldrop Inspired by John Becton
Any day can be Springtime if we let it be Any day can be Springtime for you and me If you have Springtime in your heart and soul, it will surround you In the midst of Winter or a terrible storm, the sky will be blue Springtime is not just a season with Jesus; it is the reason The reason to live another day with a brand-new feeling September 29, 2023 MarkWaldrop
In a world of choices, where desires entwine, Water soothes the soul, a taste divine. Hold the wine for moments grand, A banquet of life, as dreams are planned. Asking for a miracle without reason would be a crime Always waiting for the most appropriate time Miracles are divinely sent from above Only to be used to show God’s great love Jesus performed miracles all the time Because God’s love for His Son was sublime September 29, 2023 MarkWaldrop
My spirit was blinded by the things of the world Constantly dodging the many darts the devil hurled What must I do in this day and time to see clearly Twenty Twenty sight I will have when I Love Him dearly My eyes were opened, and I could see one day When His shadow passed over me when I prayed September 29, 2023 MarkWaldrop
Don’t we all have the right to be wrong now and then I certainly hope so; otherwise, I would have no friends If I were right all the time, It would certainly be a crime Nobody would put up with me, not even my spouse, you see Lord, give me the wisdom to see how others view me Wisdom I know comes from you. Please, God, give me a dose too September 29, 2023 MarkWaldrop
Ping Pong Pop Pop
Ping Pong Pop Pop I play Pickel Ball until I drop What is the mystic lure of the court It is a noteworthy and admired sport Meeting with friends the challenge of competition Often meeting in the E.R. in a Most uncomfortable position September 28, 2023 MarkWaldrop
Catch the foxes, small and sly, In vineyards where blossoms lie, Guard our vines, so sweet and fair, From these thieves that prowl out there The vineyards of our life we view with care To keep the little foxes from driving us to despair Life is a trail of many crooks and turns We must control our hearts for which they yearn The little thrives so sly and quick Moving so fast, trying every trick Be alert and keep your focus Least the little foxes cause hocus-pocus September 28, 2023 MarkWaldrop
