THINGS CAN CHANGE

 







THINGS CAN CHANGE!


Have you ever felt

SO HOPELESS=that you

Wanted your life to end?


I have=and it is

A terrible feeling=

Many people take their own life

Every day=over something

Very important to them


I WISH I could HELP

Them understand=to hang on

FOR ANOTHER DAY


Things=life and circumstances=

Can change=and they USUALLY DO=

THINGS CAN CHANGE!


“Let justice descend=

O heavens=

Like DEW from above


Like gentle rain

Let the skies drop it down”                                                                                       Isaiah 45:8


LIFE CHANGES= like the

Changing of the seasons=

Summer becomes fall=

Winter becomes spring


And in a dry climate=

The dew really falls

On summer nights


It becomes wet and welcome

Like rain=to NOURISH

All that grows


Hang on one more day

THINGS CAN CHANGE!=

Life is worth LIVING


“Then the Lord God

Formed a man

From the dust

Of the ground


And breathed into his nostrils

The BREATH OF LIFE=

And the man became

A LIVING BEING”                                                                                             Genesis 2:7


“Whoever of you=LOVES LIFE

And desires to see=many good days


Keep your tongue from evil

And your lips from telling lies”                                                                            Psalm 34:12-13


“For those who find me=

FIND LIFE=

And receive favor

From the Lord”                                                                                                    Proverbs 8:35


Hang in there for another day=

THINGS CAN CHANGE!-

Live for another day


Life wears us down=

It is easy to become

Bitter and hard=

Easy to become=EMPTY and arid=

We can become=withered and faded


It SEEMS hard to believe

That things will ever change=

But the readings today-

SHOW that all

Hurts and harms CAN BE HEALED


Find the Lord=and FIND LIFE=

THINGS CAN CHANGE!


“Jesus answered'=

'I am the way=and the truth

AND THE LIFE


No one comes

To the Father

Except through me'”                                                                                              John 14:6


“For physical training

IS of some value


But godliness has value

For all things=holding promise

For both the PRESENT LIFE

And the LIFE to come”                                                                                            1 Timothy 4:8


KEEP your faith and hope

And always know

THINGS CAN CHANGE!

LIVE for another day


In Jesus' name=and in the name=of our holy LIFE-GIVING FATHER!
