Forever Life

Forever Life....... Music Click ~♫ Picards Flute♫

"There shall be eternity.....

There I will be
   like a fledgling alive,
   with eyes looking upward
claiming His life
   and there will be bliss...
by dying to keep,
the warmth in my arms
as life I will kiss

My Jesus will smile
with purest delight,
there I will laugh
and sing of His love,
In life everlasting-
my Jesus my heart.

And here I stand, mere mortal man, touched deep within my soul
By painted skies that stun my eyes with the beauty I behold.
Bill Hazel

I could not see one step ahead
"I might as well be blind" I said
But, faith said "Walk along with me
I'll lead you, so you don't have to see"
I took faith's hand, it was no fraud
for Faith is but the hand of God

~ And We Shall Fly ~

And we shall fly, on clouds so high,
and never go away,
For, we shall soar, as you and I,
Where we will ever stay.

And, we shall fly with wings so light,
between the stars above,
Together, we shall freely glide,
in life, in truth, in love.

For now we bear the life of Christ, Eternal, is our lift,
Our bodies will not tie us down....

when eternity's our gift.
This moment, here, our spirit's soar, We will not wait, til then,
Our souls borne high within His love, already kept in heaven.
Yes, now, we soar on wings of joy, Everlasting our delight,
We fly this day, for evermore, upon our wings of flight.

Jesus said "Peace I leave with you,
My peace I give unto you,
do not be afraid...
I go to prepare a place for you,
that where I am, you may be also...

God is bigger than time, dates, and appointments.
He wants you to move
through this day with a quiet heart,
an inward assurance that
He is in control, a peaceful certainty
that your life is in His hands,
a deep trust in His plan and purposes,
and a thankful disposition,
toward all that He allows.
He wants you to put your faith in Him,
not in a timetable.
He wants you to wait on Him
and wait for Him.
In His perfect way He will put everything together, see to every detail...
arrange every circumstance...
and order every step to bring
to pass what He has for you.
Roy Lessin

"We need not grasp at tomorrow,
when life's sweetest delight comes,
from believing today all we know is true, (but may not now see)
the daily gifts of life
held by eternal love"

But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ, even when we were dead in transgressions--
it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the
heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might show the incomparable riches of His grace, expressed in His kindness to us in Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 2: 4-7

~ Wings of peace ~

Carry me away beyond today, on Your wings of flight,
Lift my spirit to the sky, where the sun is bright.
Then I can walk with joy, my footsteps every day,
On wings so light and carefree, to carry me away.

No matter then, the waves of grief, they cannot weigh me down,
I know true peace within, for heaven's love I found.
I may not leave my sorrows, nor burdens that I bear,
But joy rests deep inside, to overshadow every care.
The winds may blow, and dark clouds pour
On days that I may mourn>

.

~ Life's ABC's ~

As things are not perfect.
Because of trial or pain;
Continue in thanksgiving
Do not begin to blame.

Even when the times seem hard,
Fierce winds are bound to blow;
GOD is forever able,
Hold on to what you know.

Imagine life without HIS love,
Joy would cease to be;
Keep thanking HIM for all the things.
His love imparts to thee.

But safe within the harbour I am sheltered in the storm.
A lightness settles in my spirit, for in the grace of God, I stand,
He holds my every moment, safe in His loving hand.
No heartache for tomorrow, as all my struggles cease
For the miracle of life has come-
I fly on wings of peace.

Where reasons are given
we don't need faith.
But, where only darkness surrounds-
we have no means for seeing,
except by faith.~
** Elisabeth Elliot

Move out of 'camp complaining'...
No weapon that is known;
On earth can yield the power,
Praise can do alone.

Quit looking at the future,
Redeem the time at hand;
Start every day with worship...
To 'thank' is a command!

Until we see HIM coming...
Victorious in the sky;
We'll run the race with gratitude,
Exalting GOD MOST HIGH!
Yes, there are good times and the bad, but
Zion awaits us...where none are ever sad.

~ Your Candle Burns Forever ~
Your candle will glow on forever, for,
  God in you can never die
  Your life will burn e'er brighter, higher,
  for your spirit freely flies
Never shall you be a fading evening star, You are of eternal joy,
A sad legend, you can never be

For your flame can never flicker to,
  the merest memory.
  you remain a morning light, your life can only shine the more,
to never fade from sight.
  Your journey holds no mournful ending,
for each day you rise to live anew,
In the beauty set within, the precious heart of you.
More than a million ruby roses, or untold
rainbows on a hill,  you will be
for God has made it so, called you only by His will.
He has lifted you in His Lord Jesus, cleansed
and made you truly whole,
Born anew a heavenly princess, everlasting is your call.

For those who live to touch
another with the gentle love of God,
Can only live forever, where eternal hearts belong.
In endless pleasure of no sorrow, no lonesome road to walk,
No cold night, no closing petals, nor dark shadow, ever more.
Eternity is in you always, the promise yet is coming true,
Morning light and joy e'er
dawn- in you for aye, your God has planned it all

Everlasting is the candle lit by the very Love of God

~ Invisible~

Come, walk with me on secret paths,
to view the never seen,
The hidden mysteries, the gifts,
that are, but cannot be.
Come, find of the invisible,
unveil the naught, the not,
The undesired, unknown, unsought...
the very heart of God.

Come, see a death e'er dying,
that blooms as desert rose,
Come, find a spring e'er gushing,
where few would seek to go.

. Gaze long on barren wastelands,

where sweetest waters flow,
Climb higher than you've been before,
a greater good to know.

Seek there, for untold value,
but, pain will be the path,
Cold barbs of thrashing thought,
will pierce your inner heart.
Great loss will fall behind you,
from toiling on this way,
But, brighter far the diamonds,
that will not spoil or fade.

Come, live in the invisible,

where only God can see,
Within the ebb and flow of life,
that throbs eternally.
Come, know the heart of Jesus,
and live for God alone,
For you will not be seen by man,
when earth is not your home.

Like bees that harvest pollen,
all for another's need,
Like worms in darkest soil,
who cause the earth to breathe,
like clouds that race
across the sky, as agents in the night,

Like sunbeam's unseen warmth,

to bring God's glorious light.
Like owls that hoot in darkness
or secrets of the deep,
That God makes for His purpose,
for this, we yet must weep.
Yes, weep for unseen treasure,
worn richly in unknown,
That God is calling for His glory,
the building of His home.

Come, live in the invisible,
the hidden stitching of His world,

Where day and night,

God's loving heart,
whispers secrets to unfurl.

"The work of life within our heart
Is but the work of One,
This work of God is His alone
It is His heart of love"
~blossoms~

. ~ I Think I'll Be A Buggy Bear ~

I think I'll be a buggy bear,
and hide in pretty leaves,
Creep among the flower buds,
camouflaged in ruby red, unseen.
Immersed in sweet perfume,
I'll chat with inching worms,
Giggle soft, when birds fly by,
and sleep in golden blooms.
I won't wake up to mysteries,
of earth and all mankind,
Nor fear the storms or darkness,
weakness at any time.

I'll live within the canopy,
of childlike innocence,
Where all seems safe and ordered
no thoughts of cold duress.
Oh, I'll think I am in heaven,
a garden's glorious dream,
I'll think I've died and gone to Jesus,
with you right here with me.
Oh, but we are there, right now, in sweet and sure repose,
Believing our dear God who said
that He is on the throne.

We're already safe in Jesus, who died to make us pure,
Breathing in God's lovely garden, in Him we are secure.
We can just relax, rest back, about the struggles and the pain,
Live only in His Spirit world, where love is all arranged.

Our hearts forever flying free, to soar within this sphere,
Warmly covered by His Son-shine, protected from all fear.

Poetry from the Heart

I do not ask that He must prove His Word is true to me,
And that before I can believe, He first must let me see.
It is enough for me to know - 'Tis true because He says 'tis so;
On His unchanging Word I'll stand and trust till I can understand.
--E. M. Winter

I am a child of God, By God's mercy and grace,
Through His Son Jesus, Who is The Sacrificial Lamb.
The One that hung on the cross in our place,
To buy back the human race,
from The Master of sin and slaver!
I am a child of God,
When my days are over in this earthly place,
My name shall not be erased from The Book Of Life.
For I have not received Eternal Life by my good deeds,
but by FAITH in Jesus The Christ!

~ Beyond The Bridge ~

Beyond the bridge, in beauty,
our darling treasure waits,
Because they lived in Jesus' love, their song now resonates.
Beyond the bridge, in glory, our sweetheart's now at rest,
No toil or trouble, for their life, is only ever blessed.
Beyond the bridge, in wonder, our cherished is at peace,
For there, in everlasting life,
their joy will never cease.

Beyond the bridge, in gardens, our dear beloved blooms,
And there 'mongst fragrant roses,
With Jesus they commune.
Beyond the bridge, now perfect,
Our precious lovely lives,
In all that is most beautiful,
in all that Jesus is.

In flower-strewn meadows
they now walk
In rest of heart, devoid of fear.
Breathing life all bathed in light,
Healed and cleansed
of dust of years,
Sweetest laughter on their lips,

Eyes so clear, that know no tears.
In meadows healed, in sweet release--
They are walking running, dancing free
in blissful perfect joyous peace.

Despite God's assurance that He's absolutely crazy about us,
most of us can't believe He means US.
But God's Word is full of our identity and position
as a believer in Jesus Christ.
We are:
Fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14)
Precious to God (Isaiah 43:4)
Cared about since our conception (Isaiah 46:3)
God's child (John 1:12)
Jesus' friend (John 15:15)
Chosen by Jesus (John 15:16)
Loved dearly by God (John 16:27)
Free from condemnation (Romans 8:1)
A temple - a dwelling place - of God's Spirit (1 Corinthians 3:16)
Redeemed and forgiven for all our sins (Colossians 1:14)
God loved us so much, He chose to sacrifice
what was most precious to Him: His only Son.

God is be the only Person we'll ever know,
Who loves us unconditionally,- but once that truth sinks in,
God's opinion becomes the only one that really matters.
