( A lot of my friends are going through some "trying" times, so I thought this might help, even though it was only about a month ago when I wrote it. Love and prayers sent your way. Carol K )

And The Words Keep Flowing
*
Sometimes we have a very rough day, but everything that happens to us, is a learning experience.
*
You know, with my memory, I'm not very good with chapter and verse, {maybe why He gave me the gift of poems and songs,} but you remember when Job had his rough experience, and still he kept his faith in, and relied on God to help see him, through? And, you know how, when you are given more responsibility in a job, you are tested to be sure you'll be able to handle it, with someone "hovering" over you?
*
We will all be tested in different ways, to be sure we can stay strong, and when "we" cannot, we know Who to turn to, for He is ready and able.
*
We can't let pride get in our way, thinking, "I can do it, myself," for we will be dealing with ones who are "drawing their power from their father.""I" cannot do it "myself," but must draw on the Lord's strength, in Jesus name, and "We" can do it, together.

HELP DRY MY TEARS
*
Lord, help dry my tears and let me smile,
As I sing Your songs, Your way,
And let Your love shine out through me,
When all else has gone astray.
*
When life goes wrong, and the pain is deep,
And I don't know what I can do,
I rest in faith that You're in charge,
Since I gave my life to You.

*
Sometimes we have not been able to forgive someone for something, and this prevents Father from being able to fully answer our prayers.
*
This is part of one of the prayer poems Father gave me when I was still keeping anger inside for members of my own family. It was not until I realized that I had to totally forgive all, before I was able to get right with our Father.
*
When bitterness is on your mind,
Then love and truth you will not find.
Belief in the Lord who died for you,
Lets prayers be heard and answered, too.
*
*
ON JUDGING OTHERS
*
Have we gone so far, that there is no way,
For compassion and mercy on Judgement Day?
Alone, we must stand, for what we do and say,
Let'a not judge each other, or for this we will pay.
*
"Who art thou that judgest another man's servant?
"In the Bible's the answer, for all those observant.
"To his own master, he standeth or falleth,
"Not by man, but by God, can this be resolveth.
*
"Yea, he shall be holden up,"
For God is able to make him stand.
Is your righteousness so great,
That for another you can command?
