Each Day You Live

Each day you live be grateful
You are alive another day
Take time to gather flowers,
In abundance, to give away.
Give the flowers to the living
We were taught long ago...
Speak while they can hear you,
If you love them tell them so.
Seek no man out to slander
Or to ridicule his name...
We all belong to Jesus and
He loves each one the same.
Do what you can for others,
Hear their distressful cry...
God sees how we treat others,
He knows when we pass them by.
Never leave kind words unspoken,
Greet each one with a smile...
Each day will grow brighter
Each day more worthwhile.

My Journey

I walked one day with Pleasure,
We sang a little song,
But, at our parting, not a measure
Remained to help my steps along.

I walked one day with Sorrow,
The journey sad, and long,
But the faith she had for tomorrow
Left me with a song.

I walked one day the road alone,
Or so I thought I did,
But soon God's love-light shone:
My sadness disappeared, and hid.

I know I'll never walk alone,
For I can hold His hand,
And, when my burdens seem a stone,
On the Rock of Faith I'll stand!

How To Find Happiness

Everybody, everywhere
seeks happiness, it's true,
But finding it and keeping it
seems difficult to do.
Difficult because we think
that happiness is found
Only in the places where
wealth and fame abound-
And so we go on searching
in "palaces of pleasure"
Seeking recognition
and monetary treasure.
Unaware that happiness
is just a "state of mind"
Within the reach of everyone
who takes time to be kind
For in making others happy
we will be happy, too.
For the happiness you give away
returns to "shine on you."

RE: Hi There

Hello JB & welcome to CS

Be Good

Be a heart of love and kindness-
As you journey through this earth-
And, forever, know the blessings
That endear a Christian's worth;
And, forever, know the rapture
Of Contentment and embrace
In the loving arms of Jesus
And the glories of His Grace.

Be a giver of His Goodness,
On each path and road you trod,
And a sharer of the fortunes
That were willed to you by God;
Let there never be a moment
That is stained by hate or greed
Or a moment's hesitation
To fulfill a neighbor's need.

Live and love with Christian virtues
That are glorified, above,
And a heart of God's compassions-
That attest to Christian love;
You will reap the joys of Heaven-
For your cares to human strife-
When you find the Lord, in waiting,
On your final road of life.

RE: Small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life...

Maybe this poem will help you!

The Light-The Way

I felt the world had turned me down
And life had me low;
Though I looked on every side.
My eyes could not find woe.

My friends were gone, and all alone
I argued with despair;
Until I grew so weak and worn
And life was filled with care.

All hope was gone, and as I walked
In darkness and defeat,
I cried, "I quit! There's no way out!"
And death I did intreat.

But in the middle of my darkness
A gentle voice did say:
"Come unto me-no need to fear
I am The Light-The Way.

Though trouble walks on every side,
I shall dwell within
To strengthen and protect you
And keep your heart from sin."

The choice was mine, to live or die,
To lose, or even win;
Without a word, I fell at His feet,
Such peace there came within.

Somehow I knew that I could be
Whatever He should bid,
And on my feet I stood and said,
"I shall not die, but live!"

Now when I'm tested, tossed and tried,
I still can hear Him say,
"Come unto me, no need to fear,
I am The Light-The Way."

Awesome poem rozebud

Thinking

If you think you are beaten, you are
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you'd like to win but you think you can't,
It's almost a cinch you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you're lost,
For out of the world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will-
It's all in the state of mind.

If you think you're outcasted, you are;
You've got to think high to rise;
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.

Life's battle don't always go
To stronger or faster man;
But soon or late the man who wins,
Is the one who thinks he can.
