Joy!

Joy is in my heart

'Cause that's where Jesus lives,

The peace and hope I have in Him

Is because it's what He gives...

...But oh, so much more

And I know Him as my Lord

And that is why my heart is full

And what I'm living for!

I know no other reason

For why my heart does sing,

It goes beyond coincidence

It's because of Christ, my King.

You make me glad by Your deeds,

O Lord; I sing for joy at the works

of Your hands Psalm 92:4

Three Hearts!

Two people seeking acceptance and love

Wanting the will of the Father above,

But living their lives away from God's plan

And living in ways accepted by man.

Each coming back to the place they belong

With repentant hearts, each with a new song,

Giving their lives to God and each other

Exploring new life with love to discover.

Looking ahead to God's perfect will

Purpose and plans and dreams to fulfill,

Finding the one whose heart wants the same

To love and obey and praise God's Holy Name.

To make Him the focus and always a part

And give Him His place in both of their hearts.

Sharing their lives, rejoicing and free

Together with God they are now hearts of three.

As summer approaches and the wedding "season"

does, too, wouldn't it be nice for all marrieds to

"renew" their wedding vows? My husband and I

will celebrate our 44th anniversary this year. We

are so thankful that God has made us one in Christ♥

I love him, he loves me - We both love the Lord!

Best of all: He loves us:)

If I Could Pray...

one prayer today

Lord, it would be and I would say:

Please guide my loved ones as You will

Guard their hearts and bless them still;

Make them strong in their faith

And help them see their mistakes;

Give them tender love for all

And for their loved ones most of all;

Don't let the sun go down on them

With hurting hearts that need to mend;

Fill them with the desire that burns

For all of You they can learn;

Then give them peace and joy so great

With excited hearts as they wait;

For all You have in Your great plan

Hold them up and help them stand;

Bring them to that special place

Where joy is seen on each face;

Where Your love is deep within

And thankfulness and blessing win.

I pray this prayer because I know

In Jesus, You will make it so.

Amen.

Teach us to number our days aright,

that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

Psalm 90:12

God who began a good work in you

will carry it on to completion until

the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:6
