Sheep eating
Grass growing
Rocks staying
Water flowing
Spring gushing
Christ sustaining

Each day is a choice
A choice for peace or war
A choice for love or hate
A choice for smiling or scowling
A choice for laughter or crying
A choice for following Jesus or turning away
The things of this world will call out for the negative
But Jesus Christ calls out for us to follow, to choose, to focus, to love.

Dear Lord, please help me to make the choice, every moment, for the things of You. Help me keep my eyes fixed on You. Love, Lisa
Days and weeks without a song
Reticence enfolding
Thoughts swirling quickly but never formed
Outward form withholding
But birds kept singing on and on
And blue skies filled the morning
The trees broke forth in full array
The scent of flowers forming
You say if I will not sing out, the rocks will praise Your Name
I choose to sing, to praise, to say
You are my God, the Way

If stones could talk, I bet they’d say
Just sit and listen to our day
The things we’ve seen, the people here
Could make you laugh and cry and cheer
History comes, history goes
But we have stood and never show
The stress, the rain, the wind, the woes
Because we are stones that time froze
We always will support each other
And be here for you to soon discover
