The ABCs of God
My wife Karen gave this to me this week. She had used it as part of the Bible study group with whom she participates. Not only is it appropriate at all times in our faith walk, but it really speaks to the sentiments of this week, the week that Ashley went to heaven. There were several lines that seemed to practically reach out to me, to touch my heart. Anyway, I hope your read it, and that it will speak to your heart as well.
Although things are not perfect
Because of trial or pain
Continue in thanksgiving
Do not begin to blame
Even when the times are hard
Fierce winds are bound to blow
God is forever able
Hold on to what you know
Imagine life without His love
Joy would cease to be
Keep thanking Him for all the things
Love imparts to thee
Move out of “Camp Complaining”
No weapon that is known
On earth can yield the power
Praise can do alone
Quit looking at the future
Redeem the time at hand
Start every day with worship
To “thank” is a command
Until we Him coming
Victorious in the sky
We’ll run the race with gratitude
Xalting God most high
Yes, there’ll be good times and yes some will be bad,
but…
Zion waits in glory…where none are ever sad!
Serving in Love,
Fred Friedrichs
