Encouraging Words To Live By
As you start your day
Get down on your knees and pray
Use encouraging words to lift a soul
Those positive words can frame the goal
It takes strength to survive
It takes courage to live
What we see and what we do
Trust in your first instincts of what is true
Count your health instead of your wealth
Love your neighbor as much as yourself
Life is a gift, accept it
Enjoy it, and be happy with it
I was taught to count your joys instead of your woes
Also to count your friends instead of your foes
Whatever I decide to be, I will be
The evidence is all around me
"As God's children, we are all brothers and sisters in His eyes. Let us demonstrate that by helping each other." Catherine Pulsifer
