ART & POETRY BY PAUL & KATHY BOECHER©

I often wonder how all the cries of God’s people can be deciphered and put into action. So many prayers go out to God each day. So many concerns, hopes, dreams, anxious moments are prayed in earnest with the promise that those prayers will be answered. It’s impossible for the human mind to understand. Yet, we pray. Sometimes more than others. This is our open line of communication with our Almighty Creator. I know the power of corporate prayer, and I thank everyone who has prayed for my Amy this week. Her surgery was successful, but she faces the recovery with some obstacles. Those obstacles have been addressed, and it looks like she will soon be going home. We are all included in God’s unconditional love. Without Him, there would be no hope. The solid rock upon which we can rely, will never leave us. He hears our prayers and acts upon them in His own timing.

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, voice heard through eagles’ song,

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

His love for us is 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!
