Cast Not a Stone {By Kay Hoffman}

Cast not the first stone, my friend,

When someone goes astray;

When a brother slips and falls,

Lift him up, instead and pray.

Pass not along the sordid news

Of someone’s sin displayed;

Lift him up and help him stand

Because for him you’ve prayed.

God Sheds His Love Around Us {By Linda C. Grazulis}

God sheds His love around us
As spring brings forth her blossoms –
The mountain peaks, the canyons deep
Speak that He is so awesome!
One cannot view a rainbow
Or hear a cardinal sing,
Smell the sweet aroma of the honeysuckle
And watch an eagle take to wing
Without believing in miracles
That occur everyday,
Which we often take for granted,
Enlightening our way.

The rolling of the ocean,
A shell washed upon the shore,
Hummingbirds so tiny –
Yet who could ask for more?
The pitter- patter of each raindrop,
Dew upon a rose,
An acorn falling from an oak
It’s amazing how it grows!
God sheds his love around us,
For He just loves to share
The bounty of this beautiful world
And how much He really cares!

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

Ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you  {Matthew 7 V 7}

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}

 

Live Life To The Fullest {By Shirley M Powell}

One never knows what tomorrow will bring,
So live life to the fullest today.
Enjoy the treasures that God has given
And never give into dismay.

Don’t let dark clouds get you down,
Be happy and carefree in mind.
Each cloud has a silver lining
That you must search for and find.

Always look for the good in others
And life will be happier for you.
Goodness and love will always make
Dark skies seem brighter and blue.

Love each other as God has loved you
And peace will be yours to share.
Know that whatever tomorrow brings
Will find you safe in God’s care.
