Give God Thanks

Sometimes we just need to stop and give God thanks. We might be having a great day or a dreadful day but when we think about it we have so much to be thankful for. Whether it’s material stuff or friends and family, health, jobs, fresh air, salvation or food to eat we have so much. Even if life is really tough we have the option of focussing on our troubles or turning and thanking God for all the good things we have. Will you stop with me today and give God the thanks that He deserves?

Trust

In whom shall I put my trust?

Shall I place it in man who follows evil and selfish desires?

Shall I place it in my intellect which is fragile and very fallible?

Shall I place it in governments and authorities that come and go, rise and fall?

Shall I put it in science which gives me answers but gives me no reason or worth?

As for me I will put my trust in God who has never let me down and who keeps His promises forever.

When the Snow Comes

When the snow comes where will you find Him?

Down with the homeless in the underpasses with soup and with blankets.

With the frightened and marginalised giving comfort and hope.

Next to the ones fearful of reprisals standing right by them.

Carrying the lonely and fighting for the voiceless.

When the storm comes where will you find Him?

Down with the anxious giving peace and reassurance.

With the disenfranchised just sitting and listening.

Next to the dying bringing dignity and hope for the future.

Carrying the depressed with empathy and understanding.

When the rain comes where will you find Him?

Down with the oppressed fighting for freedom.

With the unwanted and unloved showing them that’s not true

Next to the prisoner showing them true freedom

Carrying the helpless, the diseased and the hurting.

When the snow comes,

When the storm comes,

When the rain comes,

Where will He find us?
