Keep us off the treadmill Lord, we pray for our path to be sure and steadfast away from the pitfalls and crevies, so that we may not repeat our mistakes and be sure of a safe arrival. In Jesus name. Amen.

Oh Splended God of all surprises. To wake to the morning sun or rain upon the window pane. The blue birds around the trees and flower heads waving in the breeze is such a blessing. Thank you Lord our Shepherd for these delights. In Jesus name. Amen.

See the flame of the candle light the room. Shadows cast of reminiscences of a small child. Let the light burn into our soul to hear your voice in peace. For you are our blessed assurance. In Jesus name. Amen.

Take A Moment

Take a moment in time

when a tranquil memory

of the misty mountains

so mysterious one can

feel the touch of God.

He speaks in fleeting moments

that are blessed by his hand

when the heart skips a

Beat in awe of wonder

Of a moment in time

Long ago I was in darkness with a depressive illness everyday was a struggle. Then one day I asked Jesus into my heart and from then on every day and month and year I slowly improved. Jesus brought me into the autumn of life through trials and I feel blessed now each day. Thank you Lord for your grace and presence in my life. In Jesus name. Amen.

Each effort we make as small as a mustard seed can produce fruit. To sow seeds in the spring and see them flourish into flowers and things to eat is a blessing to enjoy. We thank you Lord for the small things in life. In Jesus name. Amen.
