Eight Beautiful Attitudes 7

To live in peace and spread God’s peace,

to all who come my way

To soothe those troubled waters

of the battle and the fray

To speak words of peace and keep the peace

in all I say and do

To remain at peace and trust the God of peace

when the devil turns the screw

Blessed are the peacemakers

Eight Beautiful Attitudes 6

Purity, integrity, sincerity

are a battle that I daily face

A battle I would lose each day

without God’s saving grace

I strive to form my character

in God’s refining fire

To purge myself of all my faults

for this is my desire

Blessed are the pure in heart

Eight Beautiful Attitudes 5

When it comes to God’s forgiveness

it is I who is in need

And when others come to me

I will refrain to make them plead

As forgiveness has been given me

so I shall freely give

For as humans we will surely err,

but in forgiving I will truly live

Blessed are the meek

Eight Beautiful Attitudes 4

What I feed will grow in me

and what I starve will die

I choose to feed the hunger

I have found for God on high

I choose to feed the kingdom

He’s planted here in me

And when God asks who’s hungry

I will lodge a guilty plea

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness

Eight Beautiful Attitudes 3

I used to long for riches,

for gold and precious rings

I wanted more, I wanted fame

and all these worldly things

But I have turned my back on this

and my God gives second chances

And I have learnt to be content

in all life’s circumstances Blessed are the meek

Thank You

Thank you so much to all who purchased my new book Christian Thoughts for Every Day of the Year. If you liked it, I would really appreciate you reviewing it for me on Amazon. Just click the link https://www.bklnk.com/review/B09M5KZSVG to go to the review page. It doesn’t need to be long or fancy, a few sentences will do. I really appreciate you taking the time to do this for me and support me in my writing.

Eight Beautiful Attitudes 2

When I look at my poverty,

the lack in my walk

My heart is sad,

I sit and cry and grasp the final stalk

I mourn for what my life could be,

I mourn over my sin

Yet I know that God will hear my cry

and the blessing will begin

Blessed are those who mourn

Eight Beautiful Attitudes 1

When honesty abounds

and the truth is what I speak

I know my faith is pretty poor,

I know my spirit life is weak

Yet when I choose to thirst for God

with all that is within

I know that God will hear my cry

and the blessing will begin

Blessed are the poor in spirit

Leaders

You don’t have to run a church to be a leader in God’s eyes. You don’t have to travel the world to be a missionary. You are a leader over anyone with whom you have influence. You are a missionary wherever you are and to whoever you meet. Everyone is important in the service of God, everyone is important in the eyes of God.

Forgiveness

If we fail to forgive we are no better than the one who we need to forgive. To forgive is a command, not an option. However hard it is, however much we wrestle with it and ask God for help, in the end it is simply a decision of the mind that we need to make. If we fail to forgive we keep ourselves trapped as a prisoner and the one who we need to forgive continues to triumph.
