Matthew 7:11 A Childs Trust

 "If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?"


An infant has no worries, 

Concerns, anguish or fear,

On parents, they will fully trust

Through each infantile year.


If parents throw them in the air,

The child KNOWS, they'll be caught,

That trust is something quite innate,

Nothing, that was taught.


We hear them laugh and giggle,

They're having so much fun,

In their wee minds they never will

Be harmed, by anyone. 


They fear not, that each mealtime,

A meal, 'twill be prepared

By someone who is capable,

And with them, will be shared.


We're called to be like children,

By Father God, above,

In providence by Him, to trust,

He'll shower us, with love.


He knows each individual,

Their needs, - already met,

Trusting Heavenly Father, 

He's just not informed us, yet.

Addenda to 'Who is this man'

Who is this Man Addenda (in blue) to an anthem by Mary Kay Beall entitled Who is this Man? sung in my home church choir a few years ago. Who is this man upon a cross By love's decree, brought low? They say He came to save the world Because God loved us so The King of Kings And Lord of Lords Eternally He'll reign Can it be true He died for me And yes, would die again Who is this man upon the cross? He is a friend to me And though I oft Him disappoint His love has set me free The King of Kings And Lord of Lords He took my sin and pain And yes it's true He died for me, But will return again

To Know, Know, Know Him. {song}

To know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him, Just to walk His way, In His will, to stay, Yes. to know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him, And I do, yes I do, do you? When He died for me, On that cruel tree, He endured such agony Just so He could set me free, He rose again triumphantly And He lives in Heav'n eternally, He wants you and me there too. Why can't men see How vast His love be? Some day He'll return To take His own to Glory. To know, really know Him, Is to love, truly love Him Live for Him each day, In His will, obey, Yes to know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him And I know, He loves you too.                                                                                       ...

"Wake me up before you go go"

 I heard this song this morning  On local radio Evoking strong memory Of really long ago. Was travelling from homeland That's Belfast, (north, six miles) To London's Heathrow airport, The song brought back some smiles. I sailed to Stranraar's harbour From our port, town of Larne Then o'ernight train going southbound Arriving there earl' morn. To catch my next connection Vancouver bound was I, The train ride, it was cheaper Than 'nother plane to fly Whene'er the train I boarded No seats avail'ble were Some military men were on them, Stretched out, without a care. I couldn't hear them snoring Or see the dreams they had But felt their tired demeanour To waken, would've been bad. Recall me having thought tough, How 'xhausted those men were, And how I'd feel if woken, To do so, wouldn't dare. The lines of song to my mind Came flooding back to me As coming from the soldiers So loved ones, they would see. So I just hunkered down, me, Near tr...
