He'll never cease to amaze me,
God's messages come through quite clear;
If we open up and listen,
We'll never need to walk in fear.
I went for a walk this morning,
On the ice of the frozen lake;
With me was my faithful dog, Luv,
Her friendship isn't hard to take.
I just needed to talk with God,
To clear up some things in my mind;
To put my weary soul at rest,
Peace for my heart I longed to find.
The sun came over the mountain,
Overcoming the dark of night;
Sending its warmth right to my soul,
Making this new day clear and bright.
I stopped and looked up to the sky,
And humbly I started to pray;
I spilled my heart and soul to Him,
Asking that He show me the way.
Then I felf His mighty power,
The message He sent came quite clear; "In your heart, you did the right thing,
With faith in me, you need not fear.
"There's no one righteous among you,
No one on Earth that's free from sin;
What matters is, I know the truth,
And all will know it in the end."
I felt all the pain drain away,
Knowing I had done nothing wrong;
The words that I write come from God,
That helps us all keep our faith strong.
Thank You, my Lord...I love You so,
Once again You've restored my soul;
Forgive me for having some doubt,
Make my faith strong as I grow old.

This writing was such a help to me this morning as I read it. I had a sleepless night last night and woke up praying to God for how to handle a family problem and feeling lost and empty. This brought tears to my eyes and hope to my heart.
In "A Touch of Your Presence" are words that would inspire, encourage and strengthen one's soul when faced with challenges and difficulties and to know the awesomeness of God's power.
Thank you...
This line says it all:
He'll never cease to amaze me,
God's messages come through quite clear;
If we open up and listen,
We'll never need to walk in fear.
Your opening line is the bottom line.
If we will ONLY open up to listen...
How many folks will open their hearts and minds this Christmas???
If ONLY...
Thank you for being a TRUE Christian.
Yes we may have a doubt now and then.
But know that we are not perfect and free from sin.
Amen!
Blessings,
