Desires of The Heart! SOMETIMES WHEN I SIT, LONGINGS COME TO ME, LONGINGS TO TRAVEL, TO FAR AWAY PLACES, TO HEAR DIFFERENT SOUNDS, DIFFERENT FACES SEE. LONGINGS TO WALK, ALONG MOUNTAIN TRAILS, ALONG THE SEAS, AND THROUGH GARDENS, MANY FLOWERS TO SEE. SOME DAYS I LONG, LONG FOR HEAVEN, THERE JESUS I WILL SEE, IN THIS HEAVENLY PLACE, NO PAIN AND SORROW, NO CLOUDY SKIES WILL BE, NO MORE LONGINGS FOR ME.

There is a trail, out back of the house, winding over the hill, so peaceful and still. On that old trail, I have walked, and watched the white tailed deer. On that old trail, I have heard, the wild goose call, echo through the cool air of fall. Om this old trail, I have watched, the wild flowers bloom, have heard the crows, and bumble bees zoom. Yes,  this old trail, takes me to and fro, my favorite place, where the red pine trees grow. On this old trail, I go, to meditate and pray, to my heavenly Father above, and say thank you, for His everlasting love.

Thanks Father! Thank you Father for your creation so fare, and for all these things you truly care. Thank you Father for the sun so bright, and the stars and moon that shine at night. Thank you Father for all the beauty you give us to see, may we use these to enlighten us about Thee. Thank you Father for the herbs and meat and all the good things you give us to eat. Thank you Father for the birds and bees, and all the blessings from the trees. Thank you Father for your word to me, and listening to my prayers, from where ever I might be. Thank you Father for sending Jesus your Son, that through Him salvation to mankind would come. Thank you Father for being our refuge in storms, and giving wisdom for your service to preform. Thank you Father for each morning, each a new beginning for a closer walk with you, one with less sinning. ~Winston Staples

Edifying Words! I find a lot of encouraging words in the Bible and heree are some found in Isaiah 40: 25-31King James Version 25  To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One. 26  Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth. 27  Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the Lord, and my judgment is passed over from my God? 28  Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. 29  He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. 30  Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 31  But they that wait upon the...

HEAVEN’S SPLENDOR O, to walk on those streets of gold, that are in Heaven, I’m told, to see the Jasper walls, and those gates of pearl, O, to live without sin, trouble or pain, no heartaches at all, and be able to talk, talk with Jesus and Apostle Paul. O, to see the crystal sea, and listen to the Angels sing, and gather around God’s thrown, and with every sound proclaim, worthy is the LAMB that was slain!

Psalm 12 King James Version 12 Help, Lord; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men. 2 They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak. 3 The Lord shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things: 4 Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us? 5 For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the Lord; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him. 6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O Lord, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. 8 The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exa
