My world seems such a simple place to me It’s full of kindness, love, and joy that I see Other’s worlds seem to be the opposite of mine Full of hate, distrust, and many people unkind What is the difference, I ask? Their world is based on earthly faith My world is based on Heavenly faith, removing all wrath The moral of this story is God is so very good Finding His love in your world will be understood September 24, 2023 MarkWaldrop
Did you ever take a risk and immediately swet pop out on your brow You wondered why I did that. I should have never made that vow A risk-based solely on physical things you can see It is a risky decision. Divine intervention will set you free It's not a risk if you have prayed and feel good inside For there are no risks with God walking by your side September 24, 2023 MarkWaldrop
He noticed when I was in my room crying all alone He noticed at school when my heart turned to stone He noticed when I went with my friends to the bar that night He noticed my fowl language and that I got into a nasty fight He was watching me all this time I had no clue I didn’t give a dime Then one day my head spun around when a drunk driver ran me down I didn’t have time to think or repent I noticed a face that was Heaven sent When I awoke a different person was I Noticing Him out of the corner of my eye September 23, 2023 MarkWaldrop
In autumn's embrace, the world transforms, With hues of gold and red, nature performs. A symphony of colors, a painter's delight, In fall's gentle embrace, everything feels right. Leaves flutter down like confetti from the trees, Carried by the breeze, dancing with ease. The air is filled with fragrances so sweet, Crisp apples, pumpkin spice, a cozy retreat. As daylight wanes, the firelight glows, In the hearth's warm embrace, stories compose. Fall's magic whispers in every cool night, A season of wonder, a pure delight. So let's savor this moment, let's take it all in, For fall is a treasure, where memories begin. With colors and aromas that fill the air, In this wonderful season, we find joy everywhere.

Keep on keeping on. One foot in front of the other. Through faith in God you will make it my brother No matter where you find yourself in this old world Faith will protect you from the darts being hurled Put on the Armor of God that you may be protected From the devils demented thoughts of rejection Jesus will walk with you through the flames of fire in your life Not having a burned hair on your head Dividing good from evil like a sharp knife September 22, 2023 MarkWaldrop
In life's grand tapestry, we weave our deeds, Seeking purpose, chasing dreams, and planting seeds. Accomplishments and triumphs, we may amass, But when the final moment dawns, we see, alas, The greatest story ever told, in humble grace, Of Jesus, who suffered and rose, His saving embrace. For nothing in this world, no laurels we've won, Can compare to the gift of God's beloved Son. He bore our burdens, our sins, and our strife, Offered redemption, the promise of eternal life. In the grandest symphony of history, we find our place, Through Jesus Christ, God's love and saving grace. So let us, in our communities, with hearts unfurled, Share the greatest gift, the hope of the world. In our circle of friends, in our own special way, Spread the message of salvation, day by day.

Where there’s a Will there’s a way That’s what I’ve heard people say Finding my will is difficult most days Leaving me lost in a dense foggy haze Clearing my mind and calming my soul Will lead in the direction of self control At last I have found my Will I must say Just over the horizon I will find my way September 21, 2023 MarkWaldrop
Oh Lord, let my heart's fire blaze, For Your love, my soul does raise. In Your light, I seek to learn, To cleanse my heart, for You I yearn. Replace my guile and frailties, I pray, With love, mercy, and guidance each day. By the Holy Spirit, let me be led, To walk the path Your word has spread. In this burning heart, a fervent desire, To be closer to You, to aim even higher. With each beat, let Your presence ignite, A love that shines forever bright.

Which bus do I find myself on these days Is it a bus of understanding a bus of Praise The old bus picks me up every morning To take me to my destination After a day of hard work I board returning home with no hesitation It’s not the bus that makes my life it’s what’s in my heart that brings love or strife The old bus just takes me where I need to go It is left up to me to find what my heart should know September 20, 2023 MarkWaldrop
Come with me on my journey I pray As I stroll down life’s pathway today Around each winding turn and curve We will discover our unexpected love The distress of climbing up the steep mountain Reaching the plateau discovering an overflowing fountain It was worth the pain to ascend to the summit To view a brilliant sparkling speeding commet Faith leads us from one mountain top to another Leaving the trials in the valleys of my brother Come to that yonder hill we see To forever spend a life in eternity September 19, 2023 MarkWaldrop
