Jehovah God. My Father. My Lord
I never could have taken those blows
If you had not been by my side. In me, supporting me. my heart.
Oh, it would have been torn to shreds by all the mean words
But with each one, I cried to you for grace. I zipped my lips and held on to you.
Mingled with the tears of sadness that coursed down my cheeks,
Were more tears of gratitude to a God who is a veritable Pillar of power.
Your power powered my joy and my joy would not die. It refused to be quenched.
Praise the Lord!
Jesus, you are THE PILLAR of my life.
I am so grateful to have you for a friend and Saviour.
For that is what has kept me today. Till now. Regardless.....
Thank you Jesus. I love you.

Thanks To You O Lord!
Dear Daddy in Heaven
How can I ever thank you enough.
You really are a good and attentive listener.
Just a whispered prayer reaches your glorious ears
and in your love, you move, you act, you provide.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Its like a dream!
But I know its real, cos I serve a living and very REAL God.
Praise you! Praise you! Praise you!
Yes, for the air I breathe
Yes, for waking me up in the morning
Yes, for letting me live those four decades plus ago
when my mother pushed me into this world
Yes, you caused air to push through my lungs
Yes, you caused a shrill cry to push through my teeny weeny lips
Oh, Lord I praise you! Praise you! Praise you!
Glorify your name!
For all the stuff you give me that I can see
For all the stuff you do, that I dont even have a clue
The provision. The protection. The peace even in the midst of the wailing storms
Dear Daddy in Heaven, how many ways do I love you?
I cannot count the ways!
I just cannot, so for now, I will just go on thanking you! thanking you! thanking......

Grace Lord! More Grace
Heavenly Father. How come its still so hard?
To let things go when people hurt me?
I don't want to hold on but I do
I don't want to stay upset but I do
I don't want to 'stay silent' but I do
Lord, please hear the cry of my heart
And give me me grace to do that which the 'I' in me does not want to do
More Grace Lord!
Just more grace
In Jesus Christ name I pray.
Amen!
