We’ve had Some Struggles

I know we’ve had some struggles
Struggles in every way
But God is so much bigger
He seems bigger everyday

So, I just wanted to tell you
That I love you anyway
Even through all the hurt
God wipes our tears away

It doesn’t matter what you do
Or what I do that counts
As long as we put God first
Those things won’t weigh an ounce

Now today’s a day to start again
And with God we’ll always win
Loving and living selflessly
God will give us victory!

A True Friend

Photo by D. Sharon Pruitt

To find a true friend is rare
A friend that in not jealous
And who is always fair
A friend that champions you
And who really cares

A friend like this understands who you are
You have freedom to speak your mind
And you stay in touch even from afar
This friendship is made truly great
When both of you can shine -
Each a different star

My Imaginary Garden

In my garden are colorful flowers
And paths that you can walk for hours.
Hanging from a tree is a garden swing.
Alongside it runs a rocky stream.
There are also pockets of lush, green lawn
And a nook with a bench for sitting on.
It’s a place where kids can play
In their happy, carefree way.
Here I love to think and write
Enjoying the view within my sight.

Don’t Waste the Day

Every sunrise you see
Every new day you greet
Is a gift from above
Raining down with love
Don’t waste the day away
Be thankful when you pray
Make a difference in someone’s life
Bitterness cuts like a knife
Live with love and not hate
Destiny and not fate
Look back with no regret
Let peace reign and don’t fret
Look for the good and not the bad
Make someone else’s heart glad
Don’t hold back cautiously
Make today a memory
