THE SHOWER OF GOD'S BLESSINGS

 

THE SHOWER OF GOD'S BLESSINGS

Every day=God SHOWERS US

With his BLESSINGS

In fact=we wouldn't even

Have TODAY= to live our life

As we want=IF it wasn't

For the shower of HIS BLESSING

God showers us=BLESSES us

With life=and then lays

BLESSING upon blessing

On top of it=LAYER upon layer

A job for sustenance=

A FAMILY=and CHILDREN to love

And extended family and

CLOSE FRIENDS

“BLESSED be God

Who refused me NOT

My prayer=or his kindness!”                                                                                     Psalm 66:20

Yes our God is KIND=

Our God is MERCIFUL=

All we have to do

IS RECEIVE IT

The shower of God's BLESSINGS=

The gift of life

“I will make them

And the places

Surrounding my hill

A BLESSING

I will send down

SHOWERS in season=

There will be SHOWERS

OF BLESSING”                                                                                                               Ezekiel 34:26

“Sow righteousness for yourselves

Reap the fruit-

Of unfailing love

And break up

Your unplowed ground

For it is time

To seek the Lord

Until he comes

And SHOWERS his righteousness

On you”                                                                                                                         Hosea 10:12

God NEVER rejects us

He never

Rejects our PRAYER

He is just WAITING

To hear from us

Sometimes he says=

“NOT right now”=or “WAIT”

Or he says

“I have a BETTER IDEA” and

“I will surprise you”

But he always hears us=

And today's PSALMIST-

Reminds us

That he never ceases

To RESPOND to us

With his MERCY

“Praise be

To the Lord

For he has heard

My cry for MERCY”                                                                                                  Psalm 28:6

“Whoever conceals their sins

Does not prosper

But the one

Who confesses

And renounces them

FINDS MERCY”                                                                                                                Proverbs 28:13

“For God has bound

Everyone=over to disobedience

So that he

May have MERCY

On them ALL”                                                                                                                 Romans 11:32

Dear Lord=as MOTHER'S DAY

Approaches=we want to GIVE THANKS

For all of our BLESSINGS

LIFE itself=and the BLESSING

Of our FAMILIES

We pray to you TODAY=and say

THANK YOU=for always

SHOWERING us with your KINDNESSES

And your blessings

In Jesus' name and in the name=of our ALL MERCIFUL FATHER!
