When You Know

When you know that the path of life before you

Is secure – that you cannot lose your way.

That you hold in your hands the Holy Bible,

That with time or circumstance will never sway.

Dropping Leaves

2 Corinthians 3:2 – “Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men.”

Way of Escape

I Corinthians 10:13: “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”

Who Is the One?

Who was the shelter we ran to in fear?

Who, with her gentle hands, comforted our tears?

Who was the teacher, who prepared us for life?

Who heard the conflicts, and calmed sibling strife?

What Manner of Man We Are

James 1:23-25 – “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.”

For One Step More

Psalm 9:10 – “And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.”

One Precious Day

I may never see tomorrow;

There’s no written guarantee,

And things that happened yesterday

Belong to history.
