My Daily Prayer {By Hazel K Boyd}

Midst the hustle and bustle
of a busy day
I pause and take time
to kneel and pray –
A prayer for all my friends,
Near and far,
For God to keep them safely
Wherever they are,
To fill their hearts with His love,
That nurtures all each day,
To show that hope will better things,
That have gone astray.
These gifts of patience, love and hope
We can always share
Then peace will dwell within our hearts
And banish every care.

If You”ll Only Ask {By Kay Hoffman}

Whatever is your problem,

Whatever you are going through,

You need not face it all alone,

God is there for you.

But you must humbly kneel in prayer

And call upon His name;

He will never forsake you

When His promise you will claim.

Whatever is your heartache,

Whatever is your task,

God is always there to help you

If  you will only ask.

Thought For Today

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Thought For Today

Never give up on your hopes and your dreams.  The going will not always be easy.  You may have to stop and take a rest sometimes.  At times you may feel like giving up.  It is at these times you have to dig deep within for that inner strength to go on.  Trust in God, believe in Him and He will see you through.  No matter what the problem is, it is never too great for him to solve.  Life is full of trials and obstacles to overcome but at the end of the dark clouds there is a silver lining and one day you will find yours.

Thought For Today

The Lord is my strength and my shield, in whom my heart trusted and found help.  So my heart rejoices; with my song I praise God.   {Psalm 28 V 7}

Reach Out For Him {By Anna Lee Winters}

When your days are darkest,
The whole world seems bleak and bare,
Just reach out your hand
And you will find him there.
When you are afraid or lonely,
Need someone to really care,
Just reach out your hand,
And you will find him there.
When your thoughts run rampant,
You think, “Can this be fair?”
Just reach out your hand
And you will find him there.
Although your steps may falter,
As you climb life’s winding stair,
Just reach out your hand
And you will find him there.
And then when you travel on again,
With many years to spare,
Remember, that when you reach out,
He is always there.

Thought For Today {M. Williams}

The act of helping others should arise as a result of a desire from the heart and not because we feel pity, otherwise we would have failed to grasp the true understanding of kindness which then becomes meaningless”

Thought For Today

There are six things the Lord hates- no seven things he detests: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill the innocent, a heart that plots evil, feet that race to do wrong, a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord in a family.

Lord, Give Me Faith {By Phyllis C Michael}

Praying Black Woman Stock Photo - 5626367

Help me to walk with patience, Lord
Help me watch and pray;
I know that You have heard me cry,
The sun will shine some day.

Help me to seek Your will, dear Lord.
O, keep me brave and true;
I know not what is best for me.
Send faith to see me through.

Help me to walk each step with hope
Though I can’t see the light;
Lord, take my hand and lead the way;
Oh, guide me day and night!

Hour by hour, Lord, give me faith,
Faith that never ask why;
Whatever it is Lord, help me say,
“Safe in your care am I.”

Thought For Today

 

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all H is benefits; He pardons all your iniquities, He heals all your ills.  He redeems your life from destruction, He crowns you with kindness and compassion.   {Psalms 103 V 2-4}
