II Peter 1:5-7

For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness, and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.

His Light Brightens



I wander lost,
As a blind man searching
Hands stretched out
Groping to find my way
Ebony surrounds
Bleakness abounds

When darkness is at its peak

Incredible light pierces
Hope dawns
A Messiah appears
A Redeemer,
A Rescuer

He turns my darkness into day
Fear lessens
Faith heightens
His light brightens

God Sent His Son






For God has sent His Son to shine,
He warms my heart with love and grace.
My world He formed with bold design.
For God has sent His Son to shine
and on His Word I daily dine,
then gaze upon His gentle face
For God has sent His Son to shine.
He warms my heart with love and grace.

More Than Just a Shoe





 
It’s interesting how God can use simple objects
in our lives to teach us lessons about Him and
His love.

I know you are looking at the picture of my shoe
and wondering what you could learn from a shoe.
I really like my new shoes. Notice the pink against
the black; isn’t it pretty?

Reflecting on the black reminded me of the trials
and problems in our lives. Sometimes we concentrate
so much on the problems that there seems to be
no light, no good things in our lives. Then God sends
some beautiful color into our lives. Something that
brightens our day and gives us comfort during the
storms.  Maybe He sends a person who says an
encouraging word or we spend time with God in His
Word.

I hope these few thoughts make you reflect on God’s
love and blessings for you even during the storms.
