If your searching you haven't found it When you find it your life will show it Always be in search of what you can't find Never give up searching in your own mind There are many things to search for there are many hills to climb Never giving up will only give you peace of mind The more you search the more you will find In the end, you will find searching is what made you kind July 7, 2023 MarkWaldrop

Do I have a date of expiration According to the Good Book, I do Not like the food we purchase we're not stamped with a date that's due I should live every minute to get the fullest use of my life Not knowing my future fate could bring much strife If I trust my Maker who created me in the beginning He knows the exact time when my life will be ending Peace with Him will make my life whole Bringing complete commitment to my soul July 1, 2023 MarkWaldrop
All gave some Some gave all No one can have a greater call Whether for my country family or friends There is no greater love that God can send John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends. June 30, 2023 MarkWaldrop
Do your kids and friends see you as you are Do you want them too? Had you rather they gaze from afar Am I one person when I leave the house and another when I return home Do I walk the straight and narrow path or tend to weave and roam The Path to Heaven is as straight as an Arrow The path to hell is a very deep and a wide furrow Lord help me to walk the straight and narrow That my kids and friends see me as God sees the sparrow June 28, 2023 MarkWaldrop
We all have different priorities that's the way it should be What's important to me you shouldn't necessarily be able to see We are all different God made us that way for a reason We all grow and bloom in our own season Just because I'm an apple and you're an orange does not make me sad In the salad of life, many ingredients are needed to make me glad God's plan we cannot understand I can only trust Him grasping His Helping Hand June 28, 2023 MarkWaldrop
