I Love My...





.

 I LOVE MY…

Comfort granted me in the simplest things.

I love my wonderful kitty.
I love my warm, comfy bed.
I love being able to eat good things,
and waiting until I WANT to eat
instead of meals having to be
on a certain time schedule.
I love bright sunny days
even though I don't get outside much.
I love the quiet nights here,
and the ability to sleep in, some mornings.
For all these things-- and so many more! --
I give thanks to God.
And most of all, I give thanks FOR God,
and for Jesus Christ my Savior.
May my main focus ever rest on him!

A FAMILIAR HYMN

A FAMILIAR HYMN

Take my life and let it be
consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days.
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
Take my hands and let them move,
at the impulse of thy love.
Take my feet and let them be
swift and beautiful for thee.

God of Infinite Variety

(The same base photo as in the last 2 posts, but what an infinite variety of  images emerge from my graphics program.)

God of Infinite Variety

God unchanging, God always the same.  Yet he has an infinite variety of beautiful, holy attributes.


God of mercy, God of glory.
God of Love and mystery.
Lord of rescue and salvation,
King of Everything Everywhere.
Tender, kind to those who believe,
Yet stern, holding accountable, those who rebel.

Christ the Savior and the Master,
Son of God with mighty power.
Look upon the forms of God,
Steadfast, unchanging, and yet,
Shows his traits and nature in infinite variety.

“His tender mercy is over all his works, and his will is ever directed toward his children’s good.”
