MATTHEW 11:28-30 28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE
Author, Robert Martin Campbell: Sometimes, in our deepest time of loneliness and difficulty, it’s not the hand of a spouse, a significant other, or other human hand that can help us. There might not be a human at hand to hold and hug you, to let your tears fall on their shoulder, to help lift you up when you have fallen. But that doesn’t mean there is no one to help.
Sometimes, our greatest help and comfort, is of a heavenly nature. Angels that watch over us. Hands reached out that can only be seen with eyes of faith. Our spiritual cheerleaders. Forces longing for our success.
So if you are lonely, your heart is aching, and you long for comfort – just realize that there is a team of God’s angels surrounding you, listening to your cries, comforting you in your pain, speaking peace to your heart at storm.
If only our eyes weren’t blind to the forces and powers Christ has sent to our aid, that He dwells with us and we can rest in Him, that His Holy Spirit longs to fill our empty hearts, and that His love is always enduring, and His grace always within prayers reach… We would never lose faith.
You don’t fight this battle alone. Even if it feels like it. Even when satan and his demonic forces try to speak lies into your heart, telling you that nobody wants you – remember that Christ loves you. He sends His angels to guard and protect you. He sends His Spirit to fill you with hope and truth.
You are not alone.
THE BRIDEGROOM COMETH
Look in the book of Revelation and you will see,
what our God has to tell you and me.
It is nearing the end of time as we now know it,
yet the beginning of an eternity for those who are fit.
Not fit in the normal way as perceived by most,
But, rather in a way that we may be ready for our Host.
The banquet is being prepared for those to come join.
Will you be one of the guests or will you stay at home?
What do you think of the invitation that was sent to you,
Are you joining the King round the table too?
So many are refusing for what they call more important things.
But I want to be ready when I hear that dinner bell ring!
Oh, I’m not wanting the feast above all the other reasons.
Though I know it will be wonderful with all kinds of seasonings.
I rather would be content just to look upon the face of our groom,
as He smiles wenst looking at the family gathering within the room.
For He is preparing to come and take His family home.
Never had He intended for His children this earth to roam.
But rather to gather round the banquet of blessings.
My, but I can’t wait to tell Him thank You for my many lessons.
Lessons of a lifetime He provided so I might understand how He cares.
So unworthy are we, yet God has even kept count of our every hair.
What can it possibly mean that the Lord of our universe,
has cared to take the time so we could have His word in Bible verses?
So let us patiently prepare for our groom to come and bring us home.
His word teaches in this world His Holy Spirit keeps us; we are never alone.
My heart with joy beyond this world’s understanding doth ring,
knowing that none will ever hurt God’s children or our Savior again.

TO MY FRIEND WHO LOVED ME (from your kitty)
I was sent to someone special to receive love,
For it was determined by the Lord above.
You would be my guardian angel on earth,
To hold and comfort away my awful hurt.
Don’t worry about me now, oh please,
For I am safe from harm sleeping and at ease.
I will see you again in the new earth someday,
Then nobody ever again shall take me away.
So, smile when you think of me, this I ask of you.
For we will be together when this world is made anew.
Love, your loving fur baby.
I hope this poem brings you comfort
Just as you have comforted
God’s little fur angel.
God bless.

MATTHEW 6:33-34 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. 34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
1 CORINTHIANS 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
GRACE HAS A FACE
Look in the mirror, and what do you see a reflection of
Mercy and grace of our holy Father from on high above
Unmerited favor of God for this soul’s reflection we see
Let us thank our Lord and Savior upon our bended knees
See the eyes of a soul looking back and closely observe
Ask what is it I might have said or done to possibly deserve
Gift of a new day of life on this earth of which I now dwell
I am not fit to be held worthy of anything less than hell
What reason did God have bringing me to this day I am in
What could he have been thinking to even want to send
This sinner guilty of so many audacious multiple sins
Into another day here on earth, even calling me friend
Unmerited favor toward all those that will believe
Choosing to walk in the light of his word received
Repenting of all our sins asking forgiveness we cry
Believing we receive a new life even if here we die
Nothing i do or say can ever take even one my sins away
Crimson they are and crimson forever they would stay
Were it not for the grace of my Savior who alone paid
The high price of my debt and now they are taken away

MATTHEW 7:7-8 7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
DONKEY’S TAIL
Donkey in the well how did you get in there
I cannot see how without there were stairs
It’s so far down that I barely am able to see
What will you do, someone help him please
No one can do it; it is not possible they say
He’s too far down, in the bottom he’ll stay
Not that we don’t care, really, we do indeed
It’s just that there’s no solution we can see
So, we began to cover him up, to fill the well
Ever so sad that into the well he had fell
He was such a sweet donkey to have around
But now we must bury him deep in the ground
What’s this we see, why he’s on higher ground
With each new shovel of dirt, we pitch down
Why he’s shaking the dirt right off of his back
And I do believe he’s smiling, now that’s a fact
Lo and behold, he’s climbing over the well
And, and all I see now is the back of his tail
Because he has trotted off to the barn
And with nary a single sign of bodily harm
The moral of this tail, I would like you to see
When all hope is gone, there is hope indeed
Never give up on God bringing you to where
He wants you to be, even without any stairs
