What is contentment, and where do I discover it It alluded me just over the hill from where I sat Always searching, always wanting peace, unable to find I was beginning to believe it was a fantasy in my mind Then, one day, the author of Contentment I met Peace flowed through my being with no regret The Maker of The Universe was the creator of my Soul Coming face-to-face with Him brought Contentment, making me whole September 26, 2023 MarkWaldrop
In life’s gentle flow, blessings quietly bestow, Miracles around, wherever you may go. Moments of grace, like a soft, hidden glow, In the midst of chaos, they quietly show. A world of wonder, a celestial tableau, Each step you take, let your heart aglow. For in the ordinary, there’s beauty to sow, Embrace the magic, let your spirit grow. Created by MarkWaldrop
In the quietness of my soul I feel God’s Majesty unfold As the soft wind blows through the trees I feel His presence as I go to my knees One moment of silence is greater than all the sounds on earth Through listening to the silence of God I found rebirth I have a new song beating in my heart today Thank You, God, for sending your love my way September 25, 2023 MarkWaldrop
Kindness changes things, I must say It will send the bitter heart far away Kindness will change all things around you Many adverse conditions it will bring you through A little kindness goes a very long way Changing the most hardened heart of clay Kindness is most infectious, creating a vast epidemic Spreading like wildlife in the hearts of the most systemic Kindness overcomes much hate in the world today Thank You, God, for the kindness You sent my way September 24, 2023 MarkWaldrop
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
What is it I need? Everything that needs to be. Everything that my life and heart desires for me. Is there something out there that will fulfill all my desires? Always looking for the Faith and hope my soul requires. It is all wrapped up into one name I must say. I found it in the Name of Jesus when I begun to pray. September 22, 2023 MarkWaldrop
