Is this what God would have you do:

take away a life its right to live...

prevent a birth into the world

when he has so much to love and give?



I know the sorrow you will feel.

Oh choose the gift of life,  not to destroy!

Hold me in your arms for just a while

and soon your pain will turn to joy.



Did you not know that all my days

were written in God's Great Master Plan?

I was woven together from the depths of earth

long before the… Continue

If only I had this life to live over again,

oh the changes I would have made.



I would have gone sleigh riding on the winters' snow,

marveled at the sight of a rainbow...

gazed at a sunset across a meadow.

It doesn't seem so very long ago.

Forgive me Lord! I just did not know!



If only I had my life to live over again,

oh the changes I would have made.



I would have hiked through a forest and hugged a tree,

spent more time with friends… Continue

All the beauty that surrounds me

I know was made by Thee,

the glorious multicolored leaves

which fall from the trees.



The musical tones of a song bird,

spiritually captures me!

What could compare

to their sweet melodies.



Everything I sense around me,

as I walk through trails and forest:

The rocks, the streams, the furry animals,

I rejoice in!

For I know were made by Thee.

I lived this life my own way.

What else can I say?

"Arise! It's Judgment Day!"



I misused the life He gave.

Angrily His fist has raised!

Was it worth the price I paid?



It's the day of recompense I fear!

Is this just a horrible nightmare?

"No my son, I am really here!"



Everyone's hysterical and unstrung.

"My wrath has now begun...

pay back time for sinful things done!"



The ground is starting to shake!

I hear… Continue

Are you lonely?

Are you sad?

Are you troubled?

Feelin' bad?



Are you worried?

Are you down?

Find yourself

on a merry-go-round?



Take away your sorrow.

Forget yesterday don't think about tomorrow!

Your storm will turn to calm,

when you hold a baby in your arms.



They don't care if you're tall or short,

or whether you're fat or thin.

They don't care what religion you are,

where you're from or the color of your… Continue

Why all the hustle and bustle

and dashing through the snow?

Why bother sending greeting cards

or stand under a mistletoe?





Why chop down a pine tree

and dress it with tinsel and light?

What is the purpose of gift giving,

or days that are merry and bright?



Unless we keep Jesus in Christmas,

it isn't Christmas at all!

Unless we celebrate The Virgin Birth,

nothing we do has meaning or worth!



Christmas isn't the holy and… Continue

If you're brought up Jewish, don't assume that you can lean back in the arms of your religion and take it easy, feeling smug because you're an insider to God's revelation, a connoisseur of the best things of God, informed on the latest doctrines! O have a special word of caution for you who are sure that have it all together yourselves and, because you know God's revealed Word inside and out, feel qualified to guide others through their blind alleys and dark nights and confused emotions to… Continue
