First Things First

Posted in Endless Poetry, Relationships on October 5, 2009 by schoolgirl777

Life would be so simple

if we just would

keep seeking things above

and reaching out with HIS  love

Life would be so simple

if we would keep first things first

then everything would be

so clear as we could see

beyond the shadows

as our trust daily grows in Thee!!!

“But seek first HIS kingdom, and HIS righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you as well (Matthew 6:33).”

What Life is All About…Read On…

Posted in Endless Poetry, Life Lessons on September 19, 2009 by schoolgirl777

Life is all about FAITH, the FAITH of a mustard seed that it takes to move a mountain.

Life is all about learning to TRUST, learning to trust HIS hand to lead and guide us.

Life is all about PEACE, the peace that comes from keeping a quiet heart and being devoted to HIM no matter what occurs around us.

Life is all about LOVE, loving God first, seeking HIM daily, and then reaching out and loving others as we follow in HIS steps.

“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me (Galatians 2:20-21).”

“Therefore, Be imitators of God as dearly loved children, and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God (Ephesians 5:1-2).”

It’s CRAZY….

Posted in Endless Poetry, Relationships on September 19, 2009 by schoolgirl777

…but that’s what girl’s do!!!

They dream

They desire

They love

to inspire

A girl’s heart is fragile

It must be handled with care

Not thrown around

by someone who doesn’t dare

to take the risk

to explore

the depth

of her inner core

a girl thinks long

a girl thinks hard

I know it sounds CRAZY

but guys,

That’s just what girls do!!!

I feel like I could fall

Posted in Endless Poetry, Relationships on September 5, 2009 by schoolgirl777

I feel like I could fall

for a guy like you

I feel like I could fall

these feelings are so true

I feel like I could fall

I think you feel it too

I feel like I could fall

but my heart is guarded still

and I wait with faith and patience

for His holy, perfect will

I feel like I could fall

so in love with you

so I keep my eyes upon HIM

to do only what HE can do!!!

The Journey

Posted in Endless Poetry, Life Lessons on September 5, 2009 by schoolgirl777

It’s all about the journey

all about the climb

this becomes more apparent

more and more

all of the time

It’s all about the journey

the one we take with YOU

always pushing forward

as our strength is daily renewed

It’s all about the journey

all about the climb

through the trials and insane times

they keep you traveling on

It’s all about the journey

and what HE does within

to keep our faith alive

because only then do we begin

to see straight past the trials

the challenges that may be

pushing us ever further

to place our trust in THEE

It’s all about the journey

all about the climb

one day we’ll see so clearly

HIS faithful hands

that guide us onward

toward Eternity!!!

(It is through the journey where we learn to rely fully on HIM for every next step in life.  Life is a journey, a journey that takes faith, faith that is an unutterable trust in God, a trust which never dreams that HE will not stand by us through it all.  It is through the journey that we learn to keep HIS perspective!!!)

Safety

Posted in Endless Poetry, Reflections on Scripture on August 20, 2009 by schoolgirl777

I am safe

wrapped in His arms

lost in a divine romance

trusting in the ONE

who has never let me down

reaching out to HIM

but at the same time

bowing down

in love

and in awe

HE is my refuge

HE is my strength

my everlasting help

when all else fades away

I am safe

when I look to HIM

when I take HIS hand

when I feel HIS grasp

I know

I can do all things

for my life is

safe

within HIS

outstretched arms!!!

“He who dwells in the shelter of the MOST HIGH, will rest in the shelter of the ALMIGHTY.  I will say of the LORD, HE is my refuge and strength, my GOD in whom I trust (Psalm 91:1-2).”

From my talks with God…

Posted in Endless Poetry, Faith, Relationships on August 9, 2009 by schoolgirl777

All of life, especially the best things, require us to step out of our comfort zones and walk by faith….and you are to rejoice before the LORD your GOD in everything you put your hand to (Deuteronomy 12:18).  God does not want us to be afraid, but to trust HIM although things might seem scary at first.  He never said it would be easy, especially new relationships, but He promises to be with us and guide us through it all!!!

I feel like I could fall

for someone I’ve never met

only talked to

only emailed

only one thousand miles away

I feel like I could fall

but I know I must guard my heart

to wait with patience

and faithfully

serve the LORD

He has given me dreams

and abilities

I want to be used

for Him so fully

but I feel like

I so

want to share

it with this person

I love it when we talk

to hear his voice

as he says my name

I am glad we can do this

from a thousand miles

apart

if we ever meet

then it will be so sweet

no matter what happens

because he will be a gift from heaven!!!

(Dedicated to someone who will remain nameless)

YOURS

Posted in Endless Poetry on August 9, 2009 by schoolgirl777

Yours is the adventure I want to seek

Yours is the treasure I want to keep

Yours is the heart I want to have

Yours is the beauty, in you I find

Yours is the life I want to live

You through me

there is no other way

Yours is the magesty

I want to praise

Yours is the glory

because I want you to reign

Yours is the hand I want to hold

faithfully guiding me

into places untold

In you is the peace

I want so much

In you is all control

I release my hand

In you is everything

I will ever need

In you

I will not be afraid

Yours is the hope

I have each day

Your life fully

is what I crave

Yours is the place

I know I will go

in the end when you

take us to your throne

Yours is the purpose

to which I serve

Yours is the love

that will never stray

Yours are the gifts

you give eternally

Yours and Yours alone

I will forever will be!!!

I’m Leaning on YOU

Posted in Changes, Endless Poetry, Faith, Reflections on Scripture on August 2, 2009 by schoolgirl777

I’m leaning on YOU

It is something I must do

to look in your eyes

to gaze at your face

to reach for your hand

because you help me stand

I’m leaning on YOU

and all that is true

as things in my life

are so very new

I’m leaning on YOU

because you’re what I need

and all that I want

is to follow your lead

I’m leaning on YOU

cause you’ve been the same

never changing

and I will remain

connected to YOU

as I learn to trust you anew

I’m leaning on YOU

as I press onward

with my eyes straight ahead

and my feet moving forward

I’m leaning on you!!!

“I will tell of the kindnesses of the LORD; the deeds for which HE is to be praised, according to all the LORD has done for us (Isaiah 63:7).  This is how you guided your people to make for yourself a glorious name.  They were given rest by the SPIRIT of the LORD.  Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who WAIT for HIM.  YOU come to the help of those who gladly do right, who remember your ways (Isaiah 64:4-5).  Yet, O LORD, YOU are our Father, we are the clay, YOU are the potter; we are all the work of your hands (Isaiah 64:8).”

Amen!!!

Affection…

Posted in Endless Poetry, Relationships on July 20, 2009 by schoolgirl777

The affection I have for you

makes it hard for me to sleep

I can’t stop thinking

about the possibilities

I pray my heart will be still

that I would rest and chill

the affection I have for you

is deeply running still

I hope and pray

we connect again soon

my heart is racing

and if it had wings

it would soar

the affection I have for you

is a wonder and so new

I think you like me to

which makes this

so real and so true

the affection I have for you

stems out of that

which you have for me

I cannot wait to see

where He takes us from here!!!
