Day 253 Repeat and Release

Breathe on me breath of God

Fill my mind with your peace.

Breathe on me breath of God

Fill my heart with your love.

Breathe on my breath of God

Fill my soul with your mercy.

Breathe on my breath of God

Fill my ears with your words.

Breathe on me breath of God

Fill my eyes with your beauty.

Breathe on me breath of God

Fill my body with your grace.

Breathe on me breath of God

Fill my hands with your blessings to share.

Day 252 Time waits for no one

I've wasted days

in fear

when I should have had more faith.

I've lost weeks

to worry

when I should have been praying.

I've thrown away months

giving in to bad thought

when I should have grown in Christ.

I've gave up years

to negativity

when I should have been releasing it and

unleashing  positive thinking.

Day 251 Revisited Words

Peace comes from the

Quiet moments we hear

God’s whispers.

We hear him in

A bird’s song,

A creek’s trickle,

The wind’s sonnet.

Faith comes from within

The soul of man

Where God resides.

It grows through

Patience and waiting,

Sighs and mysteries,

A weary heart and soul.

Strength comes in the

Midst of weakness,

Where God is working.

We realize it when

Calm and receptive,

Willing and submissive,

Looking and seeking.

Day 250 Release yourself to the universe and see what happens!

I am working on a new blog to promote art sales.

A foggy morning

reminds me to clear my head

of negative thoughts.

The snow crusted ground

calls me to soften my heart.

The cold air forces me

breathe out,

releasing pent up emotions.

The light of another day

causes me to rethink

my life's purpose.

Moonlight stops me in my tracks,

and I know I must express gratitude

for surviving another day.

Turn to God.

Allow God.

Follow God.

I am not in control.

He is.

Day 248

Baptized in the spirit

We are renewed.

Old fears and worries

wash away.

A clean soul

provides space

for happiness and contentment

to reside.

A lighter heart

allows us to soar

beyond our

world weary bodies.

We release control

and follow the Master's path.

A well spring of reserve flows beneath the surface of each of God's children.

He fillst hat resevoir and we are ready to face the day,

knowing He will walk each step with us. We will zap negative thinking

arrows from piercing our skin by calling on our Protector.

Together we battle and triumph any earthly war.

There is no need to run and hide.

There is no need to waste time complaining.

There is no need to seek outside comforts.

Gos is our soul's guide in anthing and everything

each and every day.

Day 247 Winter

winter snow

reflects God's light

emphasizing His richness

winter cold

draws the soul within

finding forgotten peace

winter days pause life

and the spirit renews

for the next journey

winter years

remember life's blessings

and are grateful
