Since the very first day I found You,
You have made me a happier man;
It's so hard to even imagine,
Being happier than what I am.
I’m not saying that life was bad before,
It just had so many twists and turns;
The pressure was crazy, the heat was on,
You calmed me down and You treated my burns.
My Dear Lord, I am a happier man,
And I owe this great feeling to You;
All the kindness and compassion You send,
You show it in everything You do.
From the simplest conversation we share,
To an emotional heart to heart;
Pure love You send me from Your Spirit,
As You always have, right from the start.
With the many ways You have blessed me,
Though I know Your plan is far from done;
The seeds You have planted inside my heart,
Are telling me that my battle’s been won.
EXCELLENT AND INDEED A KEEPER! PRAISE GOD...A TESTIMONY OF FAITH AND TRUST IN OUR ONLY HOPE...JESUS CHRIST. THANKS FOR SHARING AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS, LOVE, JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS
Inspirational and a heart-warmer, Paul. We know where I Grace and Spirit come from, yet we oftimes forget to thank Him enough! Blessings and love...Micke
All of us need to be more thankful as you have been in your poem. We tend to call on God when we want or need something, but we forget that he likes to receive thanks as reward for a job well done.

Much needed words of assurance. No matter the trials we know the battle is won. Wonderful poem! Deborah
Because of His dying for us, our future has been sealed. And it is up to us if we choose or reject Him. I am so glad we chose Christ! Beautiful faith-building write, Paul; bravo!

Reflections and Nature Watercolors is a collection of Margaret's spontaneous positive thoughts in celebrating and reflecting on life and her nature watercolors.
These song lyrics and art are tales, tides and twinkling lights - tunes telling stories of warmth and sun, city and sand, paths that lead, and the coins we can keep in the Karma Bank. Spirit's been bypassed for sorrow, dreaming of a better tomorrow .
Be always safe,
