January 2/10 Poems

Traveling Along Life's Way

As I travel down life’s highway
My Savior leads me on
Down the winding pathway
As I face another hard day

Jesus keeps me day by day
I walk with him and He walks with me
Keeping me on the straight and narrow way
In His will I will always stay

At times I want to run ahead a ways

Then the road gets more winding

Yet, from Him I do not stray
For He is with me each day

He has promised to never leave me
Nor to forsake me
Never to leave me alone
He will be with me each and every day.

God’s presence brings great comfort along life's way

(Ps. 25:4-10, Gen. 28:15, Heb. 13:5)

Poem 2010

Another Year At The Door
January 1

Search God's word and find for yourself
Hidden treasures and precious things in store
Dig a little deeper, day after day
You will be surprised as you find more and more.

As a miner digs for mineral deposits
When all is said and done he finds ore;
So as you dig into God's word
You to will find wisdom three score

Search, and you will surely find
Answers to your questions galore
Treasures you will find, enriching your mind
Thus to the future opening the door

As we enter in to 2010 a gift awaits
What do we have in store
Wait and watch for opportunities to shine
You will be surprised, as to what crosses the floor

God’s rich treasures that are proven and true
are there just waiting for you to explore.
(Prov. 2:1-9)
