I Met This Family What a Joyful Experience
I Met This family… What A Joyful Experience!
I met this family. What a joyful experience!
They displayed Christ’ love by their
gracious appearance!
At first I couldn’t hardly believe what I was seeing!
The love and joy of Christ I was now receiving!
They didn’t have much in the way of entertainment.
They had God’s peace and a joyous contentment!
They were happy about God and also excited.
They talked about the good things in life.
And were delighted!
The simple things in their family did abound!
A peace and warmth in their home,
I certainly found!
A love for God in this home I was able to see!
What’s good for them...
Is also good for me!
A respect for the parents was clear and evident.
I knew the Holy Spirit is the “chief resident!”
I’m thankful to God for the blessing they’ve been.
I’m glad that I know them and to call them friend!
May we all be encouraged by our families too!
May we not forget to say; “I LOVE YOU!”
May the love of Christ keep us all together!
May we seek his will today and forever!
Thank you lord for your goodness and grace!
We welcome you into our dwelling place!
