Storms of life. 'ello dad


The lifespan of a butterfly,

Is one of struggling toil,

From crawling caterpillar

To pupas toiling coil.

Caterpillar stage, just weeks long,

Pupa, can be two years

As a flying butterfly,

Four weeks or less, those dears.


Eventually the beauty shows

Their patterned, coloured, wings

I'm sure, that in their language,

Though we can't hear, she sings.

No announcement, weather forecast,

To them, innate it seems,

The sunny dryer climate,

Has them enjoy sun's beams.


Whene'er it rains, the butterfly,

Will rest, their wings, can't use,

So they'll relax from labouring

'Til clearer day, she views.

Since Creator made the butte'fly, 

HE also, mankind made,

We too, our rest times needed

Lest energy does fade.


Whene'er we go through trials,

Stand back, let go, take rest,

Recharge 'til we're more able,

Then we can show our best.

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.                                                                                       ...

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
