GIFTS TO JESUS

                                 If you would give a gift to Jesus, Give it to the poor of the earth.

          If you would serve his love and missions, Serve by deeds of Christian worth.

         If you would give him gifts of comfort, Comfort others with his grace.

          If you would dry his tears of sorrow, Dry them on another’s face/

          Every act of love and kindness, You bestow on one in need,

          Is a precious gift to Jesus, And a service in his creed.

          Give of heart and hand and spirit.

Every gift you can afford in giving unto others, You are giving to the Lord.

FEED YOUR FAITH AND DOUBT WILL STARVE TO DEATH

 

FAITH

Lord, give me faith--- to live from day to day,

with tranquil heart to do my simple part,

and, with my hand in thine, to go thy way.

 

Lord, give me faith--- to trust, if not to know;

with quiet mind in all things thee to find,

and child-like, go where thou wouldst have me go.

 

Lord, give me faith--- to leave it all to thee,

The future is thy gift; I would not lift

The veil thy love has hung between it and me.

                                                   

                                                            - John Oxenham

 

Plant For Eternity

If you would plant for a year, plant grain:

yours shall be man, an ear of grain.

If you would plant for a decade, plant trees:

yours shall be olives and shade and ease.

To plant for eternity, plant men:

Eternal harvests shall be yours then.
