He Remembers Prayers

/ pastorpete51 / 7 Comments 
Prayer is not an idle wish
And more than wondering
If God might be too busy with
Some more important things

It puts down its deepest roots
In the garden of our cares
Knowing God has scheduled us
In His appointment book of prayer

And bends low to listen for
Each child of His who seeks
For He well remembers when
At Calvary He was weak

For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Hebrews 4:15 ESV

Jesus Hungered Yet He fed

/ pastorpete51 / Leave a comment 
And after fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. Matthew 4:2 ESV

Jesus hungered yet he fed
Five thousand with five loaves of bread
He thirsted but He promised all
Living streams for those who call
Yes - Jesus walked and Jesus wept
Jesus rested and He slept
Till His suffering on the cross
Where He paid sin’s awful cost
Now He’s gone to Father’s home
To make a place where we may come
There in Heaven He waits for them
Who by faith will follow Him
And will serve in love till He
Returns so with Him we will be.

He Goes With Them

How do the birds know when to gather? 
Who sets the alarm that they hear? 
Why do they prepare when the wind still blows warm 
To fly away year after year? 

Who guides their course in the evening 
And tells them the time that is best 
How can they know that the place that is waiting 
Has food and protection and rest? 

Their designer who fashioned each feather 
And has given a voice for their song 
He watches them all 
Even sees when one falls 
And goes with them 
On their journey so long
