Experiencing Life

I shall miss the laughter and shouts -

Of the children when school is out.

God make them a blessing as they spend their holidays,

Enjoying the outdoors, helping parents and others in many ways!

Love indeed -

To love indeed!

For many, love is just a word, a passing emotion;

But love that honors Jesus our Lord,

Responds to Him with deep devotion.

Love is doing little things on little wings

Which bear little souls to heaven.

If things are tough, remember that

Every flower that bloomed had to go

Through a lot of dirt to get there,

Yet it brought joy everywhere!

When someone does something good, applaud!

You will make two people happy and they will laud.

When sorrows assail us our sorrows draw nigh,

He will not fail us, so don't sigh!

When we are fainting and ready to fail,

He will give what is lacking and make us prevail.

Rest your assurance on God's love in your heart,

Not on fear in your mind, but let it depart!
