I am awakening to the grace of the Lord.
I am falling in love with Him more and more.
I have taken a stand to serve only Him.
I will honor my Lord with the life that I live.
I want to be known only as His child.
I want my service to Him to be seen as worthwhile.
It’s the lease I can do to give back to Thee.
My most humble thanks for dying for me.
Lord Jesus, come and fill me today.
Give the places to go, things to do, words to say.
Show me how to grown in you love.
Lead me on to Heaven above

America - Do You Remember
Written: May 29, 2005
America! Do you remember…
All the brave men and women who weathered peril and storms on the seas to come and settle in a new land. Those courageous patriots who stood up to a tyranny from across the ocean in the name of freedom.
America! Do you remember…
The spirit of the pioneers traveling across a land, leaving the comforts of home for the promise of adventure and new life and what about the families torn apart when part of our nation wanted progress and freedom for all while the other part just wanted to protect a way of life.
America! Do you remember…
All the men and women who have given their lives on foreign soil to protect freedom
America! Do you remember…
To pray daily for those now serving in our military
Christians in America! Do we remember…
To thank God for his grace and for Jesus‘ sacrifice on Calvary and do we remember to share that grace with others.
America! We need to remember…
The past lest we be destined to repeat it and to praise God for all those who gave and still give their all so we can be free.

Prayer for the Day
Lord help me get thru this day
As only you can
Give me the strength to go on
To carry out Your will and Your plans
Give me a kind word to say
To those who irritate me
Help me lift them in prayer
Their problems to see
I know I will stumble
At least once today
Not do what I should do
Or say what I should say
With you holding my hand
Showing me where I should go
I will get thru this day
I will let your love flow.
As only you can
Give me the strength to go on
To carry out Your will and Your plans
Give me a kind word to say
To those who irritate me
Help me lift them in prayer
Their problems to see
I know I will stumble
At least once today
Not do what I should do
Or say what I should say
With you holding my hand
Showing me where I should go
I will get thru this day
I will let your love flow.
A Visit to the Stable
Let’s take a trip in our minds
Back in the days of yore
To visit the stable in Bethlehem
Where Jesus Christ was born
It’s just an ordinary barn
Where cows and chickens lived
But became a nursery late that night
As there was no room in the inn
With walls of wood and a floor of dirt
Animals tethered all around
A cattle trough filled with hay
Was where the baby was found
It was just a simple building
For housing animals large and small
But on that night so long ago
It housed the Savior of us all
I’m grateful that the inn was full
And Mary slept in the stable that night
It set in motion a chain of events
That led to redemption for you and I
Let’s take a trip to visit
The stable in Bethlehem
And take the time to say “Thank You, God,
For sending a Savior to men.”

The Pledge
The Pledge
Written: June 12, 2005
We all have stood as children
With or hand upon our heart
And pledged loyalty to our flag
And that we would do our part
That we will work and strive to keep
Life in America free
A land of blessings & choices to make
This United States the best country it can be
I made another pledge one day
But not to the Old Red, White and Blue
My pledge was made to an old rugged cross
Where Jesus died for me and for you
I pledge my allegiance day by day
To the Lamb on Calvary slain
And serve this Lamb as I go about
Worshipping and honoring His name
Is this a pledge that you have made?
Do you serve the Lord this day?
If not, please while you still have time
Stand with me, Raise your hand high
And boldly proudly say…..
I wrote this to read as an introduction when singing the song I Pledge Allegiance to the Lamb by Ray Boltz...
[at this point the introductory music begans]
“ I pledge allegiance to the lamb
With all my strength
With all I am
I will seek to honor his commands
I pledge allegience to the Lamb”

Personal Prayer
Lord, what do you see when you look at me?
Am I really being all You want me to be?
Do I give You the time I really should?
Am I ministering to every person I could?
Or do I let the world come crashing in?
And do I get consumed with the ways of me?
As I travel down the road of life
Through this world filled with trouble and strife
I want to be led by Your nail pierced hands
To boldly proclaim Your name and take a stand
I hope to be known as a child of the King
For people to cling to the message I bring
And then one day when my life is through
I'll forever live in Heaven with You!
Am I really being all You want me to be?
Do I give You the time I really should?
Am I ministering to every person I could?
Or do I let the world come crashing in?
And do I get consumed with the ways of me?
As I travel down the road of life
Through this world filled with trouble and strife
I want to be led by Your nail pierced hands
To boldly proclaim Your name and take a stand
I hope to be known as a child of the King
For people to cling to the message I bring
And then one day when my life is through
I'll forever live in Heaven with You!
A New Day
Darkness bathes the sleeping land
All is still withing the night
You lie enveloped in the land of dreams
Not one thought of daily life
Suddenly a light breaks thru
The sky is a glorious sight
Blue, orange, pink and white
A new day dawns for you
A new day is a brand new chance
To be as salt and light
To bear your cross and go forth
As a messenger of Christ
What will you do with this gift you've been given
This gift to go and serve?
Will you go to seek those lost in sin
With the message of His word?
Darkness creeps across the land
Bringing this day to an end
You pray thanking God for all He's done
Then sleep 'til it's a new day once again.
All is still withing the night
