There can be miracles … when you believe.
Though hope is frail,
Its hard to kill.
Who knows what miracles you will receive
When you believe,
Somehow you will…
You will when you believe
They don’t always happen when you ask
And its easy to give in to your fears
But when you’re blinded by your pain
Can’t see your way safe through the rain
A small, but still resilient voice, says
“Hope is very near”
-Kenneth Edmonds and Stephen Schwartz
“O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the Rock of our salvation.
Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto Him with psalms.
For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
In His hand are the deep places of the earth:the strength of the hills is His also.
The sea is His, and He made it: and His Hands formed the dry land. O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.”
Psalm 95:1-6
I will make the darkness light before thee,
What is wrong I’ll make it right before thee,
All thy battles I will fight before thee,
And the high place I’ll bring down.
When thou walkest by the way I’ll lead thee,
On the fatness of the land I’ll feed thee,
And a mansion in the sky I’ll deed thee,
And the high place I’ll bring down.
With an everlasting love I’ll love thee,
Though with trials deep and sore I’ll prove thee,
But there’s nothing that can hurt or move thee,
And the high place I’ll bring down.
Although Satan in his rage would tear thee,
And with all his winning arts would snare thee,
Even down to thine old age I’ll bear thee,
And the high place I’ll bring down.
I will make the darkness light before thee,
I will make the crooked straight before thee,
I will spread My wings protecting o’er thee,
“And the high place I’ll bring down.”
Charles P. Jones
“…I will make the darkness light before them.” Isaiah 42:16-
“It gives me a deep, comforting sense, that things seen are temporal…
and things unseen are eternal.”
Helen Keller
“When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion,
We were like them that dream.
Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the nations,
The LORD has done great things for them.
The LORD has done great things for us; and we are glad.
Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the South.
They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.”
Psalm 126:1-5
“A smile costs nothing, but gives much”
It takes but a moment, but the memory of it usually lasts forever.
None are so rich that can get along without it-
And none are so poor but that can’t be made rich by it.
It enriches those who receive, without making poor those who give-
It creates sunshine in the home,
Fosters good will in business,
And is the best antidote for trouble
And yet it cannot be begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is of no value
Unless it is given away.
Some people are too busy to give you a smile-
Give them one of yours
For the good Lord knows that no one needs a smile so badly
As he or she who has no more smiles left to give.

“Lord, when I feel that what I’m doing is insignificant and unimportant,
Help me to remember that everything I do is significant and important in Your eyes,
Because You love me,
And You put me here, and
No one else can do what I am doing in exactly the way I do it.”
― Brennan Manning
His Name is Wonderful, His Name is Wonderful, His Name is Wonderful, Jesus my Lord
He is the mighty King,
Master of everything,
His name is wonderful, Jesus my Lord.
He’s the Great Shepherd,
The Rock of all ages,
Almighty God is He,
Bow down before Him,
Love and adore Him,
His name is wonderful,
Jesus my Lord.
