IN THE NIGHT......SEASONS

In the SPRING of my life,
I feel you near me as always.
Never leaving nor forsaking me
As you promised.

Our fellowship has a sweet smell
As wild flowers in early bloom.
Day after day, new growth appears
When I lean not on my own understanding,
But yours.

In my obedience and by your grace,
Showers of blessings come down.
Your living water feeds my soul
And gives strength.

I will love thee, O Lord.

As the warmth of your radiant glory
Beams upon my face,
I grow nearer to you in prayer and thought.
Let me be acceptable to you, Father,
Now that it is SUMMER.

The pressures and demands on my life
Make my heart like wax.
It is melted in the midst of
every trial and tribulation.
Yet I know that you will be my rock
and my health.

Though my strength dry up like a potsherd,
In love you take my tears and work with me.
You are the potter.
I am fashioned in your image.

I will love thee O Lord.

As the deer panteth after
The water brooks,
My soul thirsteth
For the living God.

In this season of change,
I have grown.
My roots are deeper and
Now I am ready for the gardener.
Withhold not your tender mercies Lord...
For I know your truth will preserve me.
Why are thou cast down my soul?
Hope in God....
FALL is necessary.
The old things must pass away and
Make way for the new.

Sometimes Lord, my mind is
Stilled with the chill of fear.
Fear that you are not pleased with me
And fruit that I bear.

In loving kindness and forgiveness,
You wrap a white woolen robe around me
And tell me to be still...
And know that you are God.

In the WINTER
I am covered with your grace and majesty.
You protect me
From the bitterness of this cold world.

In secret places you heal my soul.
You make me clean, and whiter than snow.
In these times, I am naked before you Lord-
As a majestic oak without her leaves.

Truly you know the very source of my being.
When I am afraid in this darkness,
I will trust in thee.
In the shadow of thy wings
Will I make my refuge.

I will cry to you, Most High.
For you performeth all things for me.
Your Son you sent to redeem me
And lift me up.

Awake my soul and sing.
Praise your Holy Name.
For you giveth life more abundantly.
Make me alive and quickened.

It is SPRING again. Use me Lord.
Help me to grow nearer to thee.
May all the beauty of my life
Magnify your precious name.

I will love thee, O Lord.
in all the seasons of my life.
