Sidewalk Chalk

Like chalk lines on the sidewalk
With pink and green and gold
Our lives are sketched out day by day
A portrait to behold

But when those things we love so much
Sunny days and moments sweet
Are washed away by raindrops
Or get tracked by little feet

We must remember God’s design
Can’t be lost or erased
For He will draw again each line
With His cross and by His grace

Go To the Ant


Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:
Proverbs 6:6 KJV

Go to the ant my Father said
Who knows to do My will
And crumb by crumb fills up his home
Before the winter’s chill

Each day he does his tiny part
Each night without complaint
And works beside a thousand brothers
With the patience of a saint!

If he can please his Maker’s heart
With just his little task
How much more should you and I
Do all that God may ask!

Eyes

To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. 1 Timothy 1:17 ESV

Eyes were made to see
Since the moment of creation
Watching dust specks in the sun
Spinning wildly with elation

Each sunrise with its colors
The wave tops as they break
And the smiles on lips of mothers
And the raindrops on the lake

He gave them light and focus
And His word to show them how
Our great unseen Creator
Is walking with us now
