A Fox Sent

The devil sent a fox this day
To steal my joy away
In the midst of busyness
I was easy prey

I glimpsed within the morning mist
The sunrise on display
A little whisper said to me
Come my child and pray

In the dawning light
Past the clouds of gray
In the pasture wandering
The fox headed my way

I said a little prayer for him
And in its warmth, he lay
He felt the joy of morning light
And rolled, began to play

I couldn’t help but smile
His joy here to portray
What was meant for evil
Took another pathway

How beautiful this blessing
Of parable, convey
The joy meant to be stolen
God shared with all today

First Step

First thought’s to run away
From this cross I bear
Our Lord offers to me
Let me walk with you here

First step is to turn
And offer up a prayer
I can’t do it on my own
I need the grace You share

First word to acknowledge
Your words spoken clear
To let your Word live in me
That love conquers all fear

First sense is to receive
Blessings everywhere
To seek them many ways
The Spirit does appear

Each step to respond
Gratefully aware
To let love lead the way
And finding heaven there

Enough Love

When we can’t find our way
With no direction of
It’s just that we haven’t
Sought enough love

When we’re feeling worried
Living in fear of
It’s just that we haven’t
Received enough love

When we’re feeling blah
With no purpose of
It’s just that we haven’t
Shared enough love

For we just don’t have it
But we know the source of
Come to be enough
And dwell in His love

For He’s always enough
Our Lord above
The eternal source
Of the Word of love

Full

As His beloved ones
We find in all our days
That we all are blessed
And filled in many ways

Thankful and grateful
Hopeful and faithful
Cheerful and joyful
Graceful and helpful

For all souls of caring

There’s a Light

There’s a light that shines today
With a message to convey

As our life here to portray
That in it’s time will pass away

Here to see in this display
To meet us where we are this day

When the clouds are dark and gray
And through the light they pass away

The joy to share and humbly lay
To do the same let us obey

The love of God here to relay
The gifts we have to give away

To find within this passageway
The word of God heard when we pray

And when we follow in His Way
With grace will never pass away

Our Prayer

In the dark valley
Of your trial here
We offer our love
With hope in a prayer

To relieve in some way
The cross that you bear
On our journey of faith
We lift up our prayer

We suffer together
As One body we share
To trust in His healing
As we bind in prayer

And throughout this day
Hope you’ll be aware
The fruit of God’s blessing
When we say a prayer

He tracks every sorrow
And collects every tear
Records them in His book ( Ps. 56:8)
Know His word through our prayer

From this world of chaos
One day we’ll see clear
When the unknown is known
That God answers our prayer

Let Gratitude

In blessings surrounding
Through Spirit to hear
Let gratitude be

A glow as a halo
One of delight
For gratitude shines
The joy of His light

A taste of heaven
Of what is to be
For gratitude flows
Into eternity

A fragrance of peace
To all it is sent
For gratitude gives
A heart that’s content

A seed to blossom
In our soul to feel
For gratitude leads
To what God will reveal

Let gratitude fill
Our being whole
For in every sense
It is good for our soul

For our souls desire
Let us hope to share it
For gratitude leads to
The fruits of the Spirit

Colors Blend

Our God who paints the sky
A blessing that you send
A prayer to rest within
And watch the colors blend

Physical, spiritual
Of man and divine
Of the way of God
And this will of mine

Of clouds and the light
The seen and the unseen
Of our joys and sorrows
We dwell in in between

Horizon of our focus
To cherish here this day
The gifts of the Spirit
To lead us on the way

Becoming Aware

The source of surrounding
Becoming aware
Our soul is calling
Drawing us to prayer

The source of great blessings
That God has to share
Our soul becomes full
Of gratefulness here

From the source of love
Of all that we need
Our soul becomes joyful
Born from this seed

The fruits of the Spirit
Here overflow
Our source of becoming
His gifts to bestow

In bearing His image
Sent in His hand
Becoming a source of
His kingdom to expand
