Beauty Doesn't Happen Overnight

Beauty in a tree in the Fall is a process. It slowly

changes and turns into a beautiful flaming red,

orange, or bright yellow. Beauty in a person doesn’t

happen overnight either. Beauty on the inside. It

is years of prayer; asking God to help us get rid of

our flaws and overcome weaknesses. We still need

a lot of grace.

It is a process that takes time. Eph 4:25-32 tells us

we must get rid of certain things in our lives like

lying and put on truth. Do not steal, but work so you

can give to others. Don’t let unwholesome words

come out of your mouth, but speak things that will

lift others up.

Also, all trees do not change colors at the same time.

They do it when they are ready. All people don’t

change at the same pace either. Our faith matures

at different times. We should not judge one

another’s faith. We should encourage one another

and lift each other up.

He's Everywhere




I feel God in the gentle breeze

as it blows through emerald trees.

I see Him way up in the sky

in birds that flap their wings and fly.


As I smell a fragrant flower 
 
I’m reminded of God’s power.

From seeds I watch new life grow

Even with my faith this is so.


As I touch a baby’s precious face

I feel my father’s sweet embrace.

In all this world signs of His grace

In heaven He’s reserved my place.

Father Dear




Father Dear

Hold my hand

My legs are wobbly and weak

Without You I can’t stand

Hold my hand


Father Dear

Don’t let go

Or I might stumble and fall

Won’t You please hear my call

Don’t let go


Father Dear

I’m Your child

Never go out of my sight

Hold me ever so tight

I’m Your child
