SIGN POST

We live in a world filled with hurt, disappointment, deceit, betrayal and the list of unkind things rolls on.
Uncertainty and the fact that we don't have the courage on our own is the most powerful force that will ever come into.
Jesus faced those things in his ministry and he laid down his life, to free us from out sin.
This poem was inspired by a sermon that was preached recently in my church.
The message was about the broken sign post in our lives that lead us away.

Our world is labeled
With words so curt
Spoken words aimed
To wound and hurt

Our world is labeled
With words so curt
Spoken words aimed
To wound and hurt

Jesus set injustice
To right from wrong
His resurrection
Brings peace that's strong

On that rugged cross
He gave everything
We are the ones to carry
The deep love Jesus brings

A small step to take
A stone makes a great ripple
Jesus reached out friend
He restored a cripple

A lamp shines it's light
To show a just way
Be near us Jesus
These words we pray

In His image we are made
Lead like a sign post
With hearts and hands
Lead towards our heavenly host

in Hope Poems

Where the ocean meets the sky
The setting colours stun
Breathe in the serenity
The scene was made by one

Where the ocean meets the sky
The setting colours stun
Breathe in the serenity
The scene was made by one

The very breeze he created.
It's soothing cooling touch
Sand sculptured between your toes
Lord than you very much

Be with my disquieted soul
Your peaceful breath I breathe
My heart yearns for you Lord
My soul longs to receive

Lift me Lord close to you
My hearts voice shall sing
Fill me oh Lord
The one is the King

My simple prayer I'll always pray
For a kind heart and caring hand
Acknowledging His truth and grace
Across the rippled sand

Faith Like A Mustard Seed
- Published: September 2022
What Is Faith?

in Faith Poems

It's a feeling
That brings certainty
It's the knowing
For all eternity

It's a feeling
That brings certainty
It's the knowing
For all eternity

It's not held in the human hand
Nor seen with the human eye
It's a deeper knowing
Like a rainbow in the sky

Like a mustard seed
Our faith grows in Him
Sung unto the Lord
In a lovely hymn

A tiny mustard seed
Nurtured by love and grace
Looking deeper for the Lord
Seeking His perfect face

Faith in every day
In every living breath
Lasting your lifetime
Until your earthy death

Pray man's faithfulness
Shines the glory of God
Our reward lays beyond
Earthly steps to be trod

A Child Is Born

The Beginning Of Great Joy

in Christmas Poems

Prayers and songs sung
To praise His holy name
A nativity scene began
The scene we've come to claim

Prayers and songs sung
To praise His holy name
A nativity scene began
The scene we've come to claim

He lay cradled in his mother's arms
She gazed into his face
Tiny baby born
To save the human race

Shepherds came to see
Born in a filthy cattle shed
A manger he lay swaddled
Straw for his tender head

From the womb to the tomb
He came to walk the land
Cobbled streets and hilltops
Led by His Father's hand

So very precious is the gift
More than frankincense, myrrh, and gold
Lasting through eternity's days
God's glory to behold

STEPS OF FAITH

We often feel overwhelmed and rightly so in the world we live in.
How many times have we been caught up in things that we can't control , but find we try.

Good had the calm, the love, the promise of much more than we can comprehend.
Simply believing in Him is the first step.

Keep your eyes on me child
Reach out for my hand
Take steps in great faith
Follow my footsteps in the sand

Keep your eyes on me child
Reach out for my hand
Take steps in great faith
Follow my footsteps in the sand

I'm with you every step
The road ahead with steps to tread
Winding and narrow is the way
Keep your eyes on me, be spirit lead

Keep your eyes on me child
I'll pick you up when you fall
You are mine
You've heard me call

You are stonger with my love
Child walk with me across the sands
I'm always with you
Follow my footsteps in the sands

PRAYERS OF FRAIL FAITH

We pray for an immediate answer, a quick fix.
God hears our prayers and answers them in time and over time.
His response is a slow travelling of the plan he has for us.
Our impatience leads us to think that God is deaf.

With a listening heart
Every heartfelt prayer
To our sovereign king
Love is open to declair

With a listening heart
Every heartfelt prayer
To our sovereign king
Love is open to declair

He hears every crying word
He wipes away the tears
Gods knows every prayer
He knows our every fear

Our frail faith is like a seed ,
Plant it in his mission field
Hold his guiding hand child
Against the enemy He will wield

His grace ,his love his truth
A passion of a farthers heart
He tore the veil apart
We're under his wings rampart

Cry out on bending knees
He'll hear your every prayer
Lift your hands unto him child
Nothing else compares

Find Your Calm, Quiet Space

Peace in Him
The calm and still
Close your eyes, child
The spirit will fill

Peace in Him
The calm and still
Close your eyes, child
The spirit will fill

Calm the storm
Smooth, silky waters
Lay still, child of mine
My sons and daughters

Find a quiet place
In a world away
Take that special time
Be and pray

Be refreshed
Fill with the spirit anew
God's always there, child
Always there for you

Hands in your hand
Footprints laid
Follow him always
His plans are laid

Poem About The Loss Of A Soul Mate

in Husband Death Poems

You're not here
For me to see
My heart longs for
The day to be

You're not here
For me to see
My heart longs for
The day to be

In your arms
Nothing harms
No tears fall
Your voice will call

Sun setting skies
Seagulls cries
You take my hand
In the soft cool sand

Always with me
My heart can see
The voice in my heart
Says you're with me

Poem On Love And Death: Saying Goodbye With Care

in Spiritual Poems about Death

Take a hand
Hold it near
Wipe away
The things we fear

Take a hand
Hold it near
Wipe away
The things we fear

Gently say
The whispered prayer
Caress the tear-streaked face
And gently care

A gentle touch
A promise to keep
Lay your head
Your soul to keep

Close your eyes
Seek his face
Waiting in heaven
For his embrace

The kindness
In a hand to touch
A moment in time
That means so much

Be the one
To say goodbye
Safe journey dear
In the heavenly sky

Poem About Redemption And The Grace Of God

in Religious Poems

To Him be the glory
To the alter, His call
His arms are open wide
It's open to all

To Him be the glory
To the alter, His call
His arms are open wide
It's open to all

Bow down before Him
He is the Lord of all
He is risen
Listen to His call

Hallelujah sing the angles
The resurrection of the Lamb
Fulfilling the greatest promise
He is the great I Am

His arms are wide open
His precious blood spilled
Let all the sinners'
Hearts be glory filled

Greatest treasures for us all
In heaven's high place
Cry and dance, dear ones
And seek His precious face
