Peace In My
Heart
by
Barbara Philbrook
Peace in my
heart as joy fills my mind,
to know I serve a God so loving and kind.
I woke up this
morning rested and refreshed,
my heart is not filled with any heaviness.
I am able to
breath and to fall to my knees,
I am able to pray for strength and needs.
I can Thank God
for the good in my life,
and show appreciation for trials and strife.
I can stand on
my feet and walk through the door,
and face anything this day has in store.
I can look for
the good in every event I face,
and give Praise to God for all of His grace.
I can share what
Jesus did for man,
and explain how each can accept the salvation plan.
I can reach out
to others suffering pain,
and share my hope which they too can attain.
I can give love
and devotion to all I meet,
because the Love of God within is complete.
I can uplift
those sunken in depression,
giving each of them a happier expression.
I can spend this
day spreading happiness and mirth,
since I know I'm a person of worth.
I once felt
useless and unworthy of love,
but then I discovered I have a Father above.
A Father who
knew me before the world began,
the Father who made the Salvation Plan.
A Father who's
acceptance and love,
had Him prepare a home for me with Him above.
A Father who
allowed His only Son to die on a cross,
so that I would not be eternally lost.
A peace in my
heart is what I feel today,
because I am loved in such a phenomenal way.
