I love the Lord with all my heart,and am a gloriously saved Christian. He has been so good to me and made my life whole. I thank Him daily for his goodness, His grace and mercy, and the way He has taken care of me and my family. That is why my favorite verse is I Peter 5:7, "Casting ALL your care upon Him, for He (truly does) cares about you." I pray that I can be a living example of the love that He has shown to me, to others.  I have a deep peace and joy from within, and like it when I can impart some of that to others.          In this hectic world we live in, sometimes it's just good to take a moment and smell the roses...and know that there is someone out there who truly cares about you. :)        In the Evening..... Walking through the woods in  evening, starring at the shadows of trees. Hearing all the sounds of the woodland, rustling and stirring of the leaves. How my heart aches to see your countenance, feel your touch on my outstretched hand. Hear your tender words calling to me sense your presence where I stand. Shadows crawl amongst the grass and linger as all the fears inside my heart remain. The sounds of night draw closer, enveloping my being once again. I seek to find the lightness in your sunshine, but find it lost within the nighttime sky. Grasping for the tenderness of your gentle words I search your scriptures again to try. The psalms bring me to pastures, so green, and cool and clean. The testimonies of enduring saints uplift my fainting heart's lost dream. I travel down the rugged path where your feet once did walk And lift my eyes to see the cross Feeling shame of all my talk. You took my feeble shaky fears made them your burden to bear create in me new courage oh Lord I’ll walk now in your care.                                 JT - 8/14/99 HIS ARMS He stretched them out     his arms for me With grace enduring pain No greater love, my needs he met With no regrets he died. His arms were used      to calm men's fears Heal sick and lame and sore Wrapped up the sorrows of forlorn Held children young and small. Then in the dawn      of early morn While most were still asleep Those arms again he stretched for me To rise out from the grave. No longer would death      weigh them down Or shrouded threads keep still He stretched his arms enfolding me To save me from death's chill. Engulfed now in     love's warm embrace World's fears on every hand They touch me not nor block my path My life held safely in his care.                                      ~JT    Click here to go back>>>>>Go back to my homepage>>>     The owner of this page does not necessarily support all of the below mentioned advertisements. :-)  Yahoo!
