Who Is In Control

Who is the boss of your life anyway?

Do you push God out and tell Him to stay away?

Those questions need to be asked, if you are trying to move forward away from your past.

Perhaps it is time to let God in. 

Perhaps it is time you confessed your sin.

Perhaps it is time you let God win.

Do you know in your heart what your answer should be?

Then humbly as God to come into your life and set you free.

He knows the plans he has for you, and they are good and they are right.

So, move toward God leaving your past far out of sight.

His Holy Spirit will fill you with a new desire.

It will fill your mind and soul, setting your heart on fire.

Then move forward in the power of His strength not yours.

Watch as He directs your life and opens all the right doors.

Now thank Him and praise Him he so loves to hear that glorious sound.

Joining in the earthly chorus of His children singing Hallelujah. “We were lost but now we are found.” Amen!

Valentine’s Day Poem

They say that love is in the air

Some find it fast, for others it is rare

There is a love that can be received by all

We just need to listen and hear its call

A love more precious than all the diamonds and gold in the ground

Where is that kind of love? Where can it be found?

It is the love of God for all His creation

For each person it is realized when they receive their salvation

His love can be found everywhere and anywhere

It is transferred through His children when they care and when they share

Jesus brought it down and left it in His sisters and brothers

It must be experienced, for it is a love like no other

This Valentine’s Day I hope you hear its call

His love was given for everyone, that includes us all

And remember, love is always in the air when god is there      Lionel   Copyright 2018

          What He Has For You

Look up into the sky and count the stars if you can.

With the same power used to create them he used to create man.

Recognize he is God and Let go.

This is His world, he made it and he has control.

So, change that image you have of yourself on the inside.

Stand up tall, receive His power and blessing and never again will you have to hide.

In the light of His presence be receptive to His plan.

He has a divine purpose for every woman and man.

Don’t just keep busy and miss His very best he has for you.

Spend time in prayer asking then listening for what he has for you to do.

He knows exactly what your day will contain with each turn and twist.

He will prepare you for each item that is on His list.

He will open-up each step right before your face.

Praise Him and thank Him, then step forward in His grace.

Remember, when you hold on to the Lord very, very tightly.

Then no good thing will He withhold from them that walk up rightly.
