GOD'S PEACE
Though this
maybe difficult, one thing I know is true.
That the
God of Peace and Love, has His Angels watching over you.
When the
pain is great and we cry with deep despair,
there is
a peace that will some day come,
because
I know God cares, and God still answers prayers.
All things
that happen in our life, will work out for our good
and though
we can not understand:
Even our
agony has a place within God's master plan.
If we could
see around the bend, a year ahead or maybe even two.
We may
begin to understand the things, God has brought us through.
My heart
does not ache and hurt quite as bad as yours;
but there
is still pain within my heart
and a void
to which there are no cures.
Time we
are told, will heal the pain within our hearts we feel;
but I'm
so glad to know until it does,
we can
rest assured that God's love and peace are real.
God is
watching us through His eyes of love and grace,
to give
us peace and comfort, until we see His blessed face.
Please
remember this my friend,
GOD HAS
YOU IN HIS HANDS.
So close
your eyes and climb right into the open hands of God, and as
you feel
God's presence; may He fill you with His peace,
and grace
and love.
God will
never leave you, no matter what you go through.
God's love
is there to guide you, no matter what the task.
One day
when we can see all the trials, God has carried us through,
Then we
will understand and know that we are finally home at last.
As God's
angels hover around you, doing what God has said;
May you
find the comfort you are seeking as you rest your weary head.
May God's
peace fill your heart, as you rest within God's might hands,
to save
and love and comfort you, is God's master plan.

Joy in the Morning
As we make
it to the top of the hill
and look
behind at where we've been,
It's hard
to believe we made it, but here we are at last.
Taking
a look at what awaits us beyond the next ridge,
Helps us
to realize that our lives have been extremely blessed,
by the
lives we have touched and the lives that have touched us.
Knowing
that the places we will go
will far
exceed the places we have been.
So look
to the mountains from them we will get our strength,
The places
that we have been can scarcely hold a light,
To the
joy that will come in the morning from the tears we have shed tonight.
