Hold your head high
Says Adonai
Hold firm and steady
Be on guard and ready
No need to balk
Steady will be your walk
You have freedom in the land
Protected by His sovereign hand
This you need to know
He is with you wherever you go
So with your head held high
Give thanks and praise to Adonai

Gratitude
An attitude
Of gratitude
One that’s not rude
It won’t cause decay
Do not delay
Do it today
Whether high or low
Wherever you go
Let gratitude show
It erases the mad
Then you’ll be glad
That you had
Weed
Lord, come and weed
Remove all greed
This one has to go
The Bible says so
Can’t have it around
Let none be found
~
Can’t have it about
Help us throw it out
Replace with thanksgiving
And a heart that’s giving
Lord, may all we do
Be pleasing to You
God’s Will *Eph. 5:15-21
15 Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. 18 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, 20 giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

God’s Word speaks for Itself.
~~~
The proof of who you are is seen and made known by what you say and by what you do. Actions speak louder than words.
~~~
Lord, God of Israel, may our actions and words reflect who we are in You. Help us to be faithful to You in all we think, say, and do. In Jesus Name, amen.

Criticize
It is wise
not to criticize
one must realize
what it implies.
Snoozing
In order to cruise
I cannot snooze
otherwise I’ll lose.
~
For my own sake
I have to stay awake
there is a lot at stake.
~
I cannot be lazy
this would be crazy
even if things look hazy.
~
I need to keep
away from sleep
when praying for sheep.
~
During the day no zzz’s
that would not please
for everything would freeze.
~
I can’t afford to be tired
nor can I be wired
for I’ve been hired.
Watching
I need to watch the news,
then I can cruise.
What has been imposing,
is the body dozing.
In order to care
I need to be aware.
I need to know
the news will show
what is going on
and what’s frowned upon.
I need to stay awake
in order to take
to the Lord my prayer
over each and every care.
