In Touch With God

A giant wall of water cascades into a pool below
Tiny drops of spray are caught by the sun's rays
Showing us a kaleidoscope of colors so beautiful
If these were man made it would take many days

With a roar the water falls on to the rocks below
Splashing water that goes high up in to the sky
Then forms a fog like cloud down at the bottom
Covering what can be seen by any man's eye

God has made so many things of great beauty
Some we wonder how He made them at all
Still we realize how much power our God has
He has made all things both great and small

We wonder why every one can't understand
It is with Him we must trust and we must pray
For us to find a better home up there in Heaven
We must keep in touch with God every day

It's Worth

A shroud of fog lifts from the landscape
Showing dazzling colors of the tall trees
Painted by the Masters hand so pristine
Each tint so exact and made to please

We hear sounds of birds this morning
Winged creatures that God made to fly
Darting to and fro among the tall trees
All of this beauty as the sun fills the sky

Rays of the early sun radiates the leaves
I see many colors yet some are still Green
God will paint these when they are ready
They will be the prettiest shades ever seen

While standing here in this beautiful sitting
I am reminded how perfect God made Earth
Everything He has put here is for our use
Yes, everything He put here has it's worth

God's Isle

As the sun sinks on this tropicial isle
Peace is felt by all that are living here
A light wind causes the palms to sway
Without a doubt it is paradise to share

As the moonlight casts long shadows
Hiding the night creatures in the dark
In the distance a bird's mate is calling
From a bonfire up goes another spark

A luau feast is being prepared tonight
Stringed music we will get to hear soon
Dancing will then be seen by the firelight
Looking like sillouettes cast by the moon

It is here God has made so much beauty
Flowers of rare colors seen all over this Isle
Just think if He made this place beautiful
It's sure that Heaven will make you smile

His Waterfalls

As the water cascades down the mountain
A loud roar is heard as water falls far below
Foam is seen where it splashes into a pool
Then onward down the mountain it will flow

Strange patterns have been carved by water
Mountain sides look as they had been hewn
By years of pounding by the savage weather
Perhaps it was caught up in a large monsoon

We can see moss grow on the mountain sides
There are a few scrub trees also growing there
So peaceful it is to live up in these mountains
No pollutions here to poison this rarefied air

God made this place of perfect beauty for us
Skillfully He has shown His awesome power
His detail work is nothing short of perfection
From this mountain to His most danity flower

Old Grist Mill

 This poem was written from the painting on the front of Shawnee Baptist Church bulliten dated Sept 4 2011


Creaking sound from that old grist mill
Is so much louder than the waterfall
We see emblazoned trees standing
High upon the hill they seem so tall

Seeing this beautiful scene He made
Makes me think back into a younger day
When things were so different back then
We were with God, not come what may

Today, it is a different world we live in
With no regard to the feelings of others
We should realize we need His strength
To help us as we are sisters and brothers

This old grist mill is much like our bodies
It will one day wear out and then fall apart
But unlike that old mill we will live eternally
But only if we have Jesus Christ in our heart

God's Garden

So peaceful is the garden this morning
Shafts of Sunlight shine on the flowers
My mood is such this beautiful morning
I want to stay here for many long hours

For it is here I know God spends time
I can feel His presence here this day
He made a place where I can worship
Where I can get on my knees and pray

This wonderful site He has given us
Where the colors are of different hues
I can see the Reds, Yellows, and Pinks 
There are many different shade of Blues

I see the park seat is empty right now
Afternoons and evenings it will be filled
They will come to see what God made
Before frost and the flowers are killed

No Shifting Sand

Turn your eyes up to the sky
Speak in a voice that is so clear
Knowing that with all of His love
That your Savior shall ever hear

He will be your guide all the time
Listen to each word He has to say
Your true love will bring you home
Let Him know tonight as you pray

No greater power will you ever find
For it was the whole world He made
Know through Him you can be saved
This thought you should never let fade

He will lead you to Heaven high above
Walk with you on that Golden Strand
Build you an eternal home upon rock
Where there shall be no shifting sand
