Walking with Jesus
Faithful and true companion
Always by my side
Each step He gives me strength
And guidance for the day

Restoration
Bowed, not broken.
Bruised, but will rise again.
In His mighty strength
And His tender compassion,
He will bring new life to me.
Tanka
(based on Matthew 12:20
A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, till he send forth judgment to victory.)
Hard Times
Times are hard
Troubles come everyday
Trying to keep the faith
I talk to my Father daily
And His Word reassures me

Thankful
Freshly picked flowers
Beautiful birthday gift
On my special day
Though life has it’s ups and downs
I am thankful I was born

Persistent Visitor
Incessently it beats
Loud upon my windowpane
My mind wants it not
Earnestly my ears try to ignore
Yet persistant is the rain

Friend of God
Scripture fulfilled
Imputation was given
Abraham believed
Righteousness was bestowed
He was called “Friend of God”

And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. James 2:23
Positive Thinking
Yes, things may be bad
But they could always be worse
Focus on blessings
Negativity reverse
Mind in gratitude immerse

Home Again
Home looks the same
Nothing has changed but me
Taking baby steps
Now recovery begins
I’m learning to walk again

Heading Home
Time to head home
Leaving hospital today
This goodbye is easy
Everyone was very nice
But my home sounds good to me
