My Peace

In a world where there seems to be so much chaos around me 
And noise that is hitting me from every side, 
As I sit still or even in my movement,
He continues to be my peace. 
Sights seen and unseen He handles
Taking away the fears that stem from the cares of this world
 He is my peace
Who is this He I speak of - This he would be Jesus, my Lord and Savior, 
My peace. 
He walks with me, He talks with me, but then sometimes he’s with me - And He's- silent-
Silently providing me with His peace 
The peace that allows me to shake off negativity
You know
The negative things people have said to me
The negative things that have happened to me
The things that rocked my soul-until I gave them to Him
Though their words bang in my hearing like cymbals clanging together in a disturbing rhythm.
 Daily clouding my judgement,and judging me
 Silence
My peace 
My peace in the lost of love ones
My peace when I don’t understand
My peace is He the one who created me
 It was He who said there will be trouble in this world 
And He who told me not to fear
 It is He who provides my covering, my shelter, my every need.
He feeds my hungry soul,
The soul that hungers for him and the nourishment He provides.
He is my peace when I don’t understand what going on
And when events in life have turned over and flipped me to another side of who-I-think I am
His peace calms my stirring soul 
His peace allows me to sleep with ease
He is the God of my salvation, He is the King of Kings, the Lord or lords- he is the all mighty,
He is a strong tower, the rock in the weary land, He is the rose of Sharon the lily of the valley,
He is my peace, my Savior, my father, my peace.

Rest In Peace

I'm trying to wrap my mind around the fact that my friend is gone.  The thought of only seeing her in pictures and /or old video is one I find hard to bear.  It's amazing when you think about how often we take the relationships we have with others for granted.  She called me a few days before her passing because she couldn't find Oprah's new network on her Canadian station.  We'll I wasn't much interested in Oprah's network and didn't know what channel it  was on on the US station so I figured I'd call her back when I knew something.   After a couple of days had gone by one of my friends on facebook had a site with Oprah's information and it appeared that there wasn't a station for Canada.  I'd been meaning to call her and tell her that but knowing how resourceful she was I figured she'd found it.  That was the last message I received and will ever receive from her.  The thought of that brings tears to my eyes.  People...

Red Truck of Mercy

That’s it, I quit, I give up!! That’s right I’m throwing in the towel, waving the white flag. I’m finish, I’m done. If I never see snow again it will be too soon for me. I just finished working an eight hour overnight shift and the last thing I want to do is shovel. As a child I couldn’t wait until it snowed. My cousins and I would spend hours playing in the snow we were supposed to be shoveling. Now when the weather man predicts snow I hope and pray he’s wrong. I thank God for snow blowers, plows, and throwers. Unfortunately my little snow throwers are gone for the weekend, I don’t have a snow blower and didn’t reach my neighbor who has a snow plow until I was half way done. The bible says to give thanks in all things. When I saw him pull up in his red truck I said ‘Thank you Lord, because you know I’m tired'. A happy heart is good medicine and a cheerful mind works healing…. (Proverbs 17:22 ) Merry Christmas & God Bless

Strings of Faith

“Behold I am the Lord the God of all flesh. Is there anything to hard for me? Jeremiah 32:27 Has the joy that once filled you slowly deserted you? As talks of lay-offs and businesses going bankrupt sweep across the nation stirring fear in the hearts of many during this holiday season. Unemployment is at an all time high and jobs an all time low. Gas prices seem to be dropping as the price of food continues to increase. Though there have been lay-offs in the postal service the bill keep on coming. As all times this is truly a time we have never seen before. Brothers and sisters this is not the time to loosen the strings of your faith. Our father is the same yesterday, today, and forever more. He doesn’t punch a time clock nor is he bound by the restraints of this world. The condition of this nation is scary for many but it's nothing for God. Its times like these I am glad He works in the realm we can’t see. If you’ve ever been in a crisis and made it through by what some may call a ...
