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.

Reminder of God's Love

My Father sent a red bird today,
to sing a special song.
He knows me like no one else can.
He's Jehovah Rapha, healer
of my body, soul and mind.

When I'm in pain or anxious
He reveals Himself to me.
Many times He's sent a cardinal,
a reminder of Jesus' blood;
the ultimate gift of love.

The One Who Sees Me

El Roi, you're the One who sees me.
Your ear hears my fervent plea.
Even ebony dark of night
won't separate me from your sight.

Though I'm thousands of miles away,
your love like a bright shining ray
illuminates my frame and I
can't hide no matter how I try.

On your hand is written my name.
Each day your grace I will proclaim.
You know the number of my days.
I bow and worship you in praise!

Singing a God Song

Daaad” said big brother G.
H is disturbing me.
He's singing much too loud.
This cannot be allowed!”

Then H pleaded with Dad,
It's not something bad.
I'm singing a God song.
Now how can that be wrong?”

At this Dad had to smile.
G fell asleep meanwhile.
Dad said, “Please sing softly.”
Then he hugged him fondly.

Damaged

Damaged, frozen, broken, and bent
Shattered by everyday events
Worthless words cast into the wind
Cruel messages to hearts send

Scarred is the heart and mind by these
Thoughtless words said not just to tease
We should reflect before we speak
Kind and compassionate words seek

Gentle ones which strengthen are key
to help heal hearts and set minds free
Speak words which build up, not destroy
Those which lighten the heart with joy
