Baptized In The Spirit

A strange statement I must say
I never really understood until today

The HOLY SPIRIT comes with HIM
When we ask JESUS to come in

HE always abides with us
If we don’t acknowledge HIM
It can create a fuss

HE acts as our communication with GOD
Without Him, we only Pray in Vain
Asking GOD for almost everything. 

He sent HIS SON to save our SOLES 
He sent the HOLY SPIRIT that we might grow

Without HIM we would remain like Little Children
Not ever growing in the Faith
So that we might see HIS RADIANT FACE

YESTER YEAR

Seems like Yesterday 
We were frolicking and running along the way

We had Children and we were so Proud
Even though sometimes they were very loud

Then the Grandchildren came along
They were even more loving and sure did belong 

Now We have more time for Ourselves 
Time to Remember The Love we’ve shared 
Relishing the Thoughts of How Much We Cared

We have many more days behind than Ahead of us now
We are So Pleased With What GOD Has Allowed

We are So Happy and Blessed
For GOD Has Walked with us all the way through
And we know he will always Continue too

Romance Is A Funny Thing

Romance is a funny feeling 
You may be deceived in every dealing

The Truth You will only Feel, when You seek GOD’S Wil
This is not easily done, If you do not know GOD’S SON

So Where does the Answer Lie
Moving Slow and trying not to Cry

So What You think is Right as Rain
It May very well be only in Vain

So what should I do  I do not know
The only answer is to move very slow

Generations

Is this Generation Greater or Less
Because of what has happened in the Past

It’s Always Been the Same down through the Ages
Because GOD’S LOVE is written in the Pages

He Sent HIS LOVE in the form of HIS SON
So We Might Win the Race We Run

HIS LOVE Caries Us Through
No Matter What We Do

This Seems Impossible to Me and You
Because We Can’t Understand What God Can Do

GOD Touched Me

GOD Touched Me I Don’t Understand 
It just seems to be in HIS Plan

Is it for Better or for Worse
I guess it’s how You See It
If you are not Cursed 

If You Look Through JESUS EYES, All You See Is GOOD
GOD HIS FATHER Designed it that Way Because HE Could

The Question I Suppose
Has GOD Touched You

Do You Even Know
Do You Even Want Him Too

It’s So Simple it Passes Us By
Just bow your head, ask, HE will be with you

Through The Ages

It’s all been out there through the Ages
If only when We Believe in HIM and Trust

It’s all been out there for the Healing
If Only Our Faith We Trust

GOD’S Love is out there through the Ages
If in HIS SON We will only Trust and Obey

GOD’S Wisdom and Glory will be with us
If only We Ask and Believe

HE will walk with Us through Eternity 
If only we ask and receive

GOD is So Great and So Good
HE will Never be Understood

My Heart Was Broken

My Heart Was Broken by a statement I heard
I Hate Christmas, it’s become absurd

We control our feelings you know
And the Path We Choose to Go

How can we take the Most Wonderful time on Earth
And not See the Love in GOD’S SONS 
BIRTH

We Have To Look For Jesus You See The Eternal Love He Can Give Me

Oh the Wonderful Joy HE can bring 
Making our hearts start to sing

That’s Why We Should Bow Our Heads Every Day
And Say Thank You GOD For Your Love you Sent Our Way

Keep Me Safe Today

Dear LORD
As I travel along the road today
I Pray you Keep Me Safe from Harm Along the Way

Give Me the Wisdom to Take the Right Route
So there will be less traffic driving about

Keep My Family Safe Back Home
They Pray for Me Wherever I Roam

Help Me to be a Witness wherever I go
For Your Son JESUS that I Love So

If I see Someone Less Fortunate today
Show Me How to Encourage Them I Pray

As my Long Day Comes to an end Thank You, GOD, For being my Friend
