In these days

In these days life is never perfect

Troubles always come our way

Many are here for a while

Some are here to stay


Conflict, Distraction, Disappointment

These are all our fare

But in our time of trouble

There are those who care


Christian friends who comfort

And join us as we pray

But most of all our Father

Who is with us everyday


Precious family members

Who take us as we are

When our need is greatest

Which they are never far


Sights and sounds delight us

If only we see and hear

Take the time to listen careful

God is always and will be near


His beauty all around us

Comfort, warmth, leisure, play

Flowers, trees, rivers, mountains

Quiet nights and bright new days


A peaceful Sabbath morning

Hearing church bells ring

Choir music so sweet and soft

It makes the heart sing and rejoice


There are many treasures and riches

God gives to us each day

But sometimes we don’t see them

Moving blindly on our way


Take the time to thank Him

For all He is and does for us

He will surely lift your spirit

And fill your heart with pure love.

  6. Great Job and as Jessica said this is a great start.

    Just to encourage you not to force yourself or God into writing. I find it counter productive when I try to force things. Writing for God must be directly from your heart. Another tip is to pray before you begin. Ask that he will use you and that you allow him to use your hands as his mouth.(Do not use my words for a prayer. Make it meaningful to him and use your own words. he would love that because it is coming from the heart.)
