My heart

Feels everything

The joy life can bring

It spreads the love

That comes from heaven above

It knows a peace

It will never release

It praises God

Then offers a wink and nod

It feels a touch

That means so much

It knows what God can do

How He’s carried me through

It holds my faith close

Cause faith matters most

It keeps me strong

Whether I’m right or wrong

It embraces every journey

Meant just for me only

It rests in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

It hangs on the word

I’ve always heard

My heart

Feels God’s affection

It has His protection

It keeps me going

All while knowing

That what I see is real

Too difficult to conceal

It shows the way

I live every day

It’s part of my soul

It makes me whole

It helps me stand

As I hold God’s hand

It unveils my smile

It makes me laugh awhile

It sees the plan

God will reveal when He can

It continues to travel far

Without leaving a scar

It ignores my naysayers

As I say my prayers

It knows where to start

My heart

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for the love

That comes from heaven above

The eternal peace

Our hearts can’t release

Our renewed strength

Whenever we talk with you at length

The blessings we gain

Through heartache and pain

The divine purpose

We see lying at the surface

Our solid ground

All the joy we found

For proving an answered prayer

Shows you’re always there

For removing all doubt

That things will work out

For teaching us to smile

Making us laugh a little while

For showing us what to ignore

While filling us to the core

And making us see

What’s truly meant to be

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for the journey

Meant for us only

All the dreams

That make us burst at the seams

For lifting us up

Filling every cup

Removing every fear

Whenever we see you standing near

For the life lessons

That have become heartfelt confessions

Giving us a home

Where our souls can roam

For every moment of pleasure

Beyond all measure

For letting us feel your power

Hour after hour

For revealing what’s in stone

Never leaving us alone

For every day

For showing us the way

For all you do

Heavenly Father, We love  you

Don’t stay on the boat when God is calling you to walk on water.

Keep hoping. Keep praying. Keep believing. God is on the move.

God has plans for you. Receive it.

Let go and let God.

I’ve been down

Had my smile turned to a frown

I’ve wondered where to go

How to share what I know

I’ve searched for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

I’ve faced every day

While trying to find my way

I’ve longed for a home

Where my soul can roam

I’ve faced my naysayers

While saying my prayers

Wondering if there’s a plan

God will reveal when He can

I’ve wondered what to do

How I’d make it through

I’ve gotten turned around

While searching for solid ground

I’ve longed for affection

As well as protection

Until God revealed His plan

As only He can

I’ve fallen and risen again

Discovered faith helped me win

I’ve traveled far

While healing every scar

I’ve longed for something to hold

Wondered if my story would be told

I’ve wanted a moment of pleasure

Beyond all measure

I’ve embraced every journey

Meant for me only

Knowing God was with me

The moment was meant to be

God removed every cloud

Provided moments that made me proud

I’ve learned my name

Gotten rid of my shame

Learned what to ignore

As God filled me to the core

Talked with God a while

And I’m learning to smile

We’ve faced some dark days

While accepting God’s ways

We’ve fallen off course

But returned without remorse

We’ve gotten lost

Not knowing the cost

Until God showed us the path

Without unleashing His wrath

We’ve searched for love

Coming from heaven above

We’ve longed for peace

Our hearts can’t release

We’ve searched for a home

Where our souls can roam

Before God filled us to the core

Then offered us more

We’ve grappled with doubt

Until God worked things out

We’ve been weak

Until we heard God speak

We’ve wondered what’s by design

Until faith showed everything is fine

We’ve learned to smile

Even laugh a little while

We’ve searched for a place

To run our race

Until God offered us direction

As well as protection

We’ve faced our naysayers

While saying our prayers

We’ve traveled far

While healing every scar

We’ve listened to the word

That deserves to be heard

We’ve longed for something to hold

Until our story was told

We’ve opened our eyes

To a wonderful surprise

Cause God revealed His plan

As only He can

We’ve learned to stand

While holding God’s hand

We hold our faith close

Cause faith matters most

We got a second chance

So, we’re doing the victory dance

You glow differently when you see yourself as God sees you.

Our greatest blessing is to know Jesus and be known by Him.
