ART & POETRY BY PAUL & KATHY BOECHER©

This weekend has proven the glory of God through His control of the weather. He sent much needed rain to areas that were beginning to show signs of draught. He sent winds to dry the surface after the rain, so the land could then be worked. He sent refreshment with just the breath of His mouth and the power of His hand. We can and do try to replicate His glory, but there is no other that can imitate His strength. We can strive to create intelligence through science and technology, but there is no other that can take His place. Look at the signs all around us. He alone has a perfect plan for every individual that walks the surface of the earth. He will lead us in everything we do.

Within the mountain’s early dawn, His majesty is seen,

The skies fill up with brilliance, and glorious golden sheen,

His breath is seen in morning mist, His voice through eagles’ song,

His power displays in sunlit rays, He shines the whole day long,

His love for us unspoken, but seen in every rock,

He leads us like a shepherd protects his wandering flock,

I am so weak and fragile, like many a stubborn sheep,

My trust oft wanes, my fears o’er take, I toss through dream filled sleep,

My tears won’t stop, my faith grows weak, I stumble all the way,

But He’s right there, surrounding me, protecting me each day,

I’ll never grow to understand His unconditional love,

But thank Him that He grants it from His throne high up above,

My God, you are my fortress, my strength when I am weak,

You carry me through deserts, you lead me when you speak,

Through pastures green and waters clean, fulfilling every need,

You fill my heart with gratitude; my soul your Word does feed.

THANK YOU, JESUS, FOR ANOTHER DAY
