"I'LL ALWAYS REMEMBER'

Tho I may not know what life may have in store I know that the Lord will Love me forever more He came into my life and it was filled so deep in sin He touched my left shoulder for me to let him in I saw my life before me as I felt His tender touch I knew right away that He loved me very much To take His time to show me about right and wrong And give me a chance to change my life as I go along I couldn’t see that I was so bad It took His eyes to open mine to what I had I’ll never forget His touch and never forget His hand that guided me forward to reach the Promise land Thank you Lord for your great Love I need your strength from above.

"JUST ME A HUMAN"

Many times I sit and wonder if there is anything in this life That I may have said or done That God might think was right I feel so low, unworthy of all I have been given That I hope He still sees in my heart and says I’m forgiven For there are many a bad thought I wish I could erase And many a word spoken in anger I’d like to be replaced And only have the good that God put deep in my heart to surface at all times and there would be no room for the mean parts Still I know I’m only human and have a lot of human ways but someday when this life is finished that will be my perfect days.

"FRIENDS"

God gives us friends to help us in need To lend a helping hand by doing great deeds We may think gifts and things are important in this life But love from friends and special prayers help in times of strife So if we look for friends we don’t have to look far Because God sends them to us as a special gift, where ever we are Always remember each special friend and give thanks often So they may receive what they give God bless my friends for he has sent me too many to count Give them the blessings in their life in very large amounts.

God gave this poem when my Grandmother died. It helped me in my sorrow. He gives me so many poems to ease pain, strive , worry and sorrows in my life. I wanted to share these special moments that I have had with Him. I am not a perfect Christian, I Love my Lord and Savior very much. He has helped me in so many ways and so many losses in my life. I have been through many lost, close loveones. They were so special to me. But, he blessed me by letting them be part of my life, and for them loving me just the way I am. I am nothing special or great, and I don’t want to be. I have everything in life I need, when the Lord touched my left shoulder about 24 years ago. I have been a very hard person for My Lord to try and teach. I still have so much I want to learn. You see I was just as low as anyone else that still lives in sin. I still have some of the things I would like to change. But, step by step the Lord is trying to teach me. I have to pray a lot, because I am not the best student. God Bless each person that reads these. I can not write poetry. The poems you see were given to me from God. I don’t know how, but they were given to me to help me heal my pains, hurts, and sorrows. They were given in times of troubles.

I am a person that has been through grief, mental brake down, failures, losses, turmoil, and disappointments. I am just like anyone else. I’m only human. I will continue with some more poems. Thanks for letting me share this message about me.

"IN MEMORY OF MY VERY SPECIAL GRANDMOTHER"

The gentle breeze that touches my hair The sunshine on a spring day All remind me of your Love That touches me in a special way A light summer shower that fills the air The flowers that bloom everywhere All remind me of your love That carries thru, even from above I picked a daisy small and blue It so reminded me of you That daisy bloomed just for you The pure loveliness was as true The Love you gave to all around Is in the air, the trees, and ground The Love so pure, true and great Was here for all from day to day That Love still shines, though you are gone It’s in our hearts where it belongs So soft, so sweet, so kind and free We’ll miss your smile, your warm embrace There will be no one to take your place The Love you gave was a special gift Now that is all we have left.

"My brother was a very smart and wonderful person. He was a collage professor. Very smart! He also had a special gift of Love for his family. I thank God that he was my brother. He died of cancer at the age of 45. I still miss him. This next poem God gave me when we found out that my brother had cancer to help me in the pain, maybe it will help someone else’s pain."

"AT MY JOURNEY’S END"

All alone in the valley I knelt with no one to feel what I felt Then my Lord heard my plea and He gently answered me. He said, child, I’m right here beside you I hear your cry, I know your pain, I understand just keep your eyes upon me and I’ll lead you to that promised land. So I keep my eyes on my Savior He is leading me today and when I fall or stumble He lifts me and clears my way. He carries me in my weakness He lifts my heavy loads I know I’m a troublesome soldier struggling on Calvery’s road. The journey at last is ending and I’m reaching canaan’s land There I can sing with the angels and join their happy band. No more pain, no sorrows Up there no more toll or strife Just rejoicing and praising in that wonderful eternal life.

"Everyone at some time get a feeling that someone else may be judging them. I had that feeling so great and the Lord gave me this:"

"JUDGE NOT

Judge not, for as you judge so shall you be judged

Though you may sting me with your words and scorn me to shame I shall not judge you because I know not your heart. You may be hurting or in great grief or pain Deep inside yu may not mean to hurt me So if I judge you wrong then when I am hurting or in pain and sting with words or deeds I will be judged the way that I have judged you.

"I often get in some kind of confussion and don’t know what to do. But I remember wanting to be better so bad that the Lord gave me this:"

"MAKE ME A BLESSING"

Lord, I needed your blessings you’ve given me today I need your tender mercies to lead for me the way I know I’ve often failed you and been so week and low I’m trusting in your precious Love to help me here below To lead and guide my footsteps and carry me across the tide To make me a blessing, Lord, forever with you to abide.

FORGIVENESS FROM THE HEART

We must forgive from our heart

To receive the peace that God gives

To see each day with gladness

And wipe away all our pain

To enjoy life with all richness

And love, peace and joy

We have to forgive from our heart

With all our humble self

To reach the highest of all highs

We can rise above the world

For when we forgive all others

We can forgive ourselves
