Living & Giving

Another blessing on another day Just another chance to pray Pray for what, “Well lets see” Everything the Lord does for me Not to mention what he does for my wife Praise be to God what a wonderful life Facing life on its own terms Was a lesson we had to learn Had to learn to say “no’ to the high Stay on the ground and reach the sky Whatever we need we get for free Lord looking out for us you see Wanted some plants to landscape the yard Lady said no its all-free put up your card I’ll even come by and offer my advice Heard from Brian you folk are really nice Then I’ll bring the rest of the plants for free Need help planting count on my family and me Spiritual Enlightenment is all I can say Living and giving is the only right way Never pushing our forcing advice Let our actions be our words of life Living by example with no words said Come on in lets break us some bread Day started off in so much pain Getting out of bed seemed in vein But as I end this poem all I can say What a wonderfully beautiful special day Another day the Lord filled our need Man I love the joy of spreading seed For each seed planted ten more sprout We use what we need and give the rest out Which in turn brings so many more Living and giving is what life is for -------------------------------------------- Today I started my day on the site waiting on my Doctor worried i had a large blood clot in my leg - Thank God it wasn't and the rest of the day - God sure does bless us. God Bless and Good night from Michael, Toni & Michaela

A beautiful praise given the Lord,you have so much to tell and ain't that new high so much better. People have a hard time putting their whole trust in the Lord, but when we do we reach new plateaus. God Bless and keep writing and praising our Savior. Ron

A wonderful poem and testomony Micheal, God iss o good, we all have a lot to be thankful for, I had a lump on my foot but it is just a simple cyst but I joked about it when it came up unexpected, I said to josh darling my foot is antisocial, he looked puzzled and I Said yes my foots took the hump. LOL, but then a scripture came to mind, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter heaven, so every time I see my lump I know I am on the right track, God bless

Hi, Michael! First of all, I happy for your health, and second of all I have enjoyed reading your inspirational poem. You have so much faith in God; nowdays people have become their own gods, not giving honor and thanks to the Almighty, who created them. They aren't thankful for the food they eat, and the air they breath. We need more men of God, like yourself, to proclaim the Good News to the world. God bless you and your dear ones. I wish you continued success. Warmest Regards, Andrew.

The way you describe how God provides for you and your family is inspiring, Michael. I hope your injuries from the fall are healing well. Isn't it nice the people in your community are willing to help each other out! God bless you, Carolyn
