His mercies are new every morning
Great is thy faithfulness
From the rising of the sun
To the going down
The lord's name be praised
Guess that's what it's all about. Looking for God in the ordinary, in the mundane. Having a synergy in our spiritual and secular lives that it may be one.
That we'll carry His presence wherever we go.
That's when there's joy and peace walking in His ways every step we move and take.
Difficult as life may be
But as surely as the sun rises
As the waves reach the shores
God is always working
Give me a sense of Godly awareness
That i may carry joy and peace
I believe that peace lies within the small and the magnificent. Born in blades of grass, living in golden sunlight, filtering through dusty shadows that whisper of tinkling piano keys. Growing in the quiet that can be found in a world that is never silent, and dying in the abandon that comes after the rain, only to be born again. Search and you will find beauty.
-- Sonya Kitchell
For many are the trials and temptations
That swere and come my way
Circumstances, people that i can't control
But how i respond i can
By the grace of God
By His first love
I trudge through
Sometimes falling
Sometimes bitter
Sometimes screaming
Sometimes crying
But always being picked up
And held by His love
I may falter
But may i never stop getting up
So help us God
I was ahead in the slalom. But in the second run, everyone fell on a dangerous spot. I was beaten by a woman who got up faster than I did. I learned that people fall down, winners get up, and gold medal winners just get up faster.
-- Bonnie St. JohnIn 1984, she was the second-fastest amputee skier in the world, and the first African-American Olympic ski medalist.
A new me
I hope to be
So help me God
Spread your wings Lord
On eagle's wings you carried me
Your grace will be my strength
On your wings i'll soar
