When you are tired and discouraged
from fruitless efforts…
God knows how hard you have tried.
When you’ve cried so long and
your heart is in anguish…
God has counted your tears.

When You….
Melody of Thanksgiving
Any man can sing in the day. When the cup is full, man draws inspiration from it. When wealth rolls in abundance around him, any man can praise the God who gives a plenteous harvest or sends home a loaded argosy. It is easy enough for an Aeolian harp to whisper music when the winds blow-the difficulty is for music to swell forth when no wind is stirring. It is easy to sing when we can read the notes by daylight; but he is skillful who sings when there is not a ray of light to read by-who sings from his heart.

A Small Candle
A small candle was carried by a man who was climbing the stairs of a lighthouse. On their way up, the candle asked the man, “Where are we going?”
“We’re going to the top of this lighthouse and give signals to the big ships on the ocean,” the man answered.
“What? How could it be possible for me with my small light to give signals to those big ships?”
“They will never be able to see my light”, replied the candle weakly.

Quiet Time With God
Time with God is not a five-minute quiet time or even an hour. Time with God is a 24-hour lifestyle! Sure, there may be times in the day when we get away from our routine to pray or read or journal or sing or … whatever. But we need to worship God all the time, when we’re in school, playing basketball, going out or coming in, laughing with friends … you get the idea.
I love to spend quiet time with God, God; You are my closest friend. I share with You my innermost thoughts, And with You, I never pretend. I am always open and honest with You, For You perceive what I’m going through. You are near and ready to minister me, If I give all my burdens to You.
When I feel I’m on a merry-go-round, My world spinning out of control. You hear my cries as I call to You. Your Spirit flows and soothes my soul. You remind me You’re walking beside me, During the times I’m tossed and blown. You admonish me “walk by faith not sight,” For You’re with me ~ I’m never alone. Because I’m one of Your children, And You’re my Father whom I wish to obey. I’ll remember Your promise You give me. You won’t forsake or cast me away. When life’s problems come my way, My response will glorify You. I will be joyful and give You praise, No matter what I have to go through. After spending this quiet time with You, Just the two of us together. I can then go out and face the world, For there’s nothing “we” can’t weather.
Thank you Jesus. Amen.
God bless you all.

WORLD’S GREATEST CHEF
I love the taste of T-bone steak,
Delicious every bite,
But there's nothing like the Word of God,
For my spiritual appetite.
The Word of God has milk and meat,
And even ice cream and cake.
Take a slice of the Bread of Life,
You could make the ole' enemy shake
