In My
Eyes
Beautifully human
Always full of
flaws
Yet My child,
you're amazing
And destined
for great things
You might act
evil
And selfish and
proud
Yet My child,
you're a saint
For My Son
accepted you
And He's not
letting go
Not now and not
ever
Wonderfully
wrong
Amazingly
arrogant
Yet My child,
you're just free-willed
And overall
kind
You might act
merciless
And stupid and
mean
Yet My child, I
choose you
To spread My
word
And share My
love
With all of the
world
I've seen the
good deeds
And the evil
ones too
One day, you
are humble
But the next,
you are proud
Always
blissfully unaware
I'm watching
everything you do
One day, full
of hatred
But the next,
unfailing love
Thankfully
Mine, forever more
So I Prayed
Today I was
feeling happy so I thanked the Lord
Yesterday I was
feeling lonely so I talked with the
Lord
Last week I was
feeling embarrassed so I laughed
with the Lord
Last year I
hardly knew the Lord so I said
enough
Tomorrow I
might not be alive so I love the
Lord
Two days from
now I might die so I praise the Lord
A week from now
I might perish so I follow the Lord
A year from now
I might be in heaven so I trust the
Lord
The sun will
rise
The sun will
set
But will it
really?
There is never
a guarantee
And so I prayed
The Willow Tree
Dewdrops go
down my leaves like tears
My branches
fall softly under their own weight
The cool breeze
flows right through me
And I, the
weeping willow, cries
I gradually
grow stronger
Day by day
taller
But as winter
comes
I gradually
wither away
And die
Even as my
trunk is cut down
Even as my
branches are burning
My soul still
remains
Immortal and
glorious
More beautiful
than life itself
All because of
Thy blessed name
This is What I Preach to You
Someone once
asked me,
"How can you
believe in something you can't see,
touch, hear, taste, or smell?"
I had no words
at the time
But now, I say,
"I feel Him in
my heart and I feel Him in life.
I see Him in
the beauty of earth and space.
I hear Him in
the songs the wind sings.
I taste Him in
the air I breathe.
I smell Him in
the petals of a rose."
Someone once
told me,
“You God does
exist, he is your personal
delusion.”
I protested
weakly at the moment
But now I tell
her,
“God is alive
and well!
He is glorious
and merciful!
If He is a
delusion,
Over one
million people feel the same way!
You dare call
me a liar
When you are
nothing more!
You will burn
in Hell’s fire,
Because you are
a liar to the core.”
Inner Desires
Do you desire
love?
Do you desire
friendship?
Do you desire
wealth?
Do you desire
comfort?
What is it that
you truly desire?
I know for a
fact it isn’t wealth
It is
affection, companionship, and relief
And above all,
My acceptance
I will grant
you all these things
And so much
more!
But just like
all good things
This will come
to you with a price
If you want My
acceptance
You must first
accept Me
If you want to
delight in My gifts
You must first
delight in My presence
If you want My
love
You must first
love Me
If you want My
friendship
You must first
befriend others.
In Your Eyes
In your eyes of
green
I can see a
forest
With a swirl of
mist
And a trail of
dreams
In your eyes of
blue
I can see an
ocean
Blinking puts
the waves in motion
I see the ocean
of love grew
In your eyes of
brown
I can see a
gentle doe
With her peace
dancing to and fro
When I look
around
In your eyes of
red
I can see a
burning fire
The same image
of a liar
An evil pure
bred
I look into His
eyes
I see a
reflection of
Not what I am
right now
But what I will
become
