What kind of team are you on today?
I hope it is a team you enjoy I pray.
Are you an owner, coach, or player?
Whatever your position, pursue it with much prayer.
There are many positions on a team.
It takes the giving of all, to reach your dream.
Owner to waterboy and all in-between
It takes practice, patience, and love to produce a Championship team.

A Crisp Autumn Day, enticing aromas filling the air
cool breezes flirting with my stringy auburn hair
Leaves, like a rainbow shimmering in the radiant sunlight
Fills us with overflowing joy, to our heart’s delight
God’s little creatures, scurrying here and there
Sensing a time of urgency, for winter is near
The warm feeling on such a cool blissful day
Recalling fond memories, of where I used to play
Autumn will be short-lived, sprinting fast away
Making every magic moment linger, is what I pray

Hymns reaching into the depths of our soul
Connecting every fiber, making us whole
Bringing back memories of earlier times
Often reminding us of church bell chimes
Hymns anchor our faith in God
Drawing closer, daily we are awed
The comfort from the music we feel
Bringing us peace and time to heal
Old hymns will never fade away
Entwined in us, leaving earth one day

What makes us feel guilty you might ask
It is how you feel, after doing a wrong task
You can carry the guilt and strife through the rest of your life
It is better to cut it loose with a very sharp knife
Jesus is a two-edged sword, the Bible says
Ask Him to come in, letting the deliverance be His
The burden will be lifted, a new Joy in your heart
Feeling His Love, you will never depart

He came to me to set me free
That His Glorious Love I might See
Not deserving that he die for me
His love completely overwhelmed me
My task in life is to spread the word
That the Holy Gospel may be heard
Nothing earthly can save man from sin and strife
Only Jesus's Great Love, can give eternal life
Oh the Loving Joy that comes within,
when we open our hearts and ask Jesus in
Since it is by faith, we come to know him
We often overlook, because our sight is dim
When our hearts turn from the things of this world
His Glorious Love will slowly start to be unfurled

First Baptist Church Louisa, Ky“
Wanting the Best and giving the Best are two completely different actions.
One turned inwardly, one outwardly, resulting in two different reactions.
The person who wants is not concerned about his brothers.
The person who gives has much love for others.
Give of Your Best to The Master it is said.
The Master gave His Best, His Son who bled.
The Best we have is not measured by our brothers.
It's measure by GOD, in us showing His Love to others.
Faith is the secret to finding God’s Love.
Caring is the yardstick He uses from above.
The best offering we can give back to Our Loving God
is sharing His Love with others wherever we trod.

Have you heard of such, as A Still Small Voice?
What does it mean? Is it by our own choice?
Some people say they feel a hunch about something.
Is this the same or does this feeling amount to nothing?
The still small voice becomes loud in the silence.
Understanding putting aside our impatience.
Where does this voice come from, you may ask?
Searching for the Creator of The Universe is the task.
The answer lies in what I choose to read and hear
The answer is in God’s Word if I keep it very near.
Since the voice comes by faith and faith is unseen,
I often pass it by, only looking at my path of green.

Where did I come from and where am I going?
The exact answer is in understanding, always growing.
In my daily life, I can say, I'm coming from here going to there.
Beyond that realm of speculation, the answer is somewhere.
Much confusion in my life has been surrounded by this query.
I have found the very answer lies,
Closeness to God is the Best Theory.

Love and Kindness go a long way
In most any situation I would say
The more you give, the more you get
Never having any doubtful regrets
Love and kindness will bring out the best in anyone
Even when they have lost all hope in almost everyone
The next chance you have, give all the Love and kindness you can spare
For this will surely make this world a much better place, when we share

Inspired from
On the Road with Steve Hartman
An assistant manager at McDonald's
Gave so much Love and Kindness to
The young people employed at her store.
Why this why that, a very daunting topic I must say.
We never have a firm answer, always asking why at the end of the day.
We can ask why about most anything I suppose.
When it comes to the very heart of the matter, only God knows.
The closer we are to him, the more We will understand.
The answer only being revealed in the Promise Land.
