My faith sees everyday as radiant
Gleaming with bright spiritual revival
Since God blesses beyond mere survival
Assuring His grace, indeed abundant.
With heart always yearning for serene bliss
Blessed Bible studies bestow sweet rest
Divine respite while ascending worship crest
Fellowshipping* with the Lord I can’t miss.
Exploring the Saviour’s love, so gracious
Against discontentment caused by dearth’s pain
My soul He lifts allowing praise to reign
Vanquishing doubts that make my mind anxious.
Hoisting spirit toward gratitude heights
Gladly directing for service ascent
Christ in His wondrous ways bestows present
Marked with prayerful reaching-out delights.
*1John 1:3…Truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.

There's no neutral position at all
in the spiritual battle forward and back
that's the only two positions that exist
so Peter tells us how to keep on track
If you're going forward that's good
for then you're not going back
but if you're going in reverse
you're letting yourself go off track
Peter the apostle speaks clearly
giving an exhortation to grow
in the grace and knowledge of our Lord
Jesus Christ the saviour the one we know
Being instructed in what Jesus taught
is the source to be scripturally mature
moving on praying in Jesus name
to your heavenly father for your cure
Filled with God's Holy Spirit
fellowshipping with His own ransomed crew
continually putting sin to death
showing marks of holiness and humility to name a few
This indeed is what God requires
from His blood-bought ones
for to Him, glory will they bring
showing they are real true sons
AUTHOR NOTES: 'But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.' 2 Peter 3 v. 18(ESV)

LORD Jesus, while on earth, was fully human - shelving His divinity by submitting His will to the Father's - without "discarding" His full deity. So on earth Jesus was born out of womb via birth canal, and probably got s slap on His back to gulp the first air outside Mary's womb. (LORD, help me with these next few lines, amen)
1. Whose sin did Jesus pay for with the first SLAP on the back He got from the attending "midwife or medical expert" in the day? Maybe the person who helped with the delivery, LOL!
2. What would the Disciples have said whenever Jesus would sneeze or FART - or pass gas?
BLESS US, LORD, or simply "More, LORD!"
(Jesus in His Eternity and Omniscience knew He died for my sins and words including these very human considerations and cogitations about Our LORD's humanity and KOINONIA, or fellowshipping, with the closest Disciples.

Talking, communion, releasing,
Fellowshipping, worshipping
A freedom of soul; senses, heart,
Emotion, feeling, mind, to breathe
Into his presence of silence.
“Honouring God the father ".
To quite our thoughts and motives
To feel and think, to ask favour,
Forgiveness, request, guidance,
And blessing.
To in tune to the highest excellence
Of God, to surrender to his majesty.
To trust, to believe.
Prayer... a words to connect our
Innermost being to the father
Almighty in heaven.
To whisper words in prayer.

WHEN TWO OR MORE GATHER TOGETHER (GOD IS IN THE MIDST OF THEM)
When two or more are gather together
When two or more are gather together
It is said, it is said, God is, God with them
When two or more are gather together
When two or more are gather together
It is said, it is said, God is, God with them
God is with you
He's with me
And when we come together
We'll be
A gathering
Fellowshipping
And when we come together
We'll be
A gathering
Fellowshipping
When two or more are gather together
When two or more are gather together
It is said, it is said, God is, God with them
In the midst of them, in the midst of them
And in the twixt of things
In the presents of the Lord
Come before the Lord
And things happen
God don't need you, you need him
When two or more are gather together
When two or more are gather together
It is said, it is said, God is, God with them
So go ahead, go on and get your praise on
Standout on your faith, praise Him
When two or more are gather together
God is in the midst of them

Once a year we have Homecoming
At our church and we celebrate
With relatives, friends, and neighbors,
Whom we have not seen of late!
What joy just sitting together
Singing the songs of long ago,
Worshipping God and praising Him-
The one from whom all blessings flow!
O, the beauty of tables laden
With a feast from God’s bountiful store,
And what a delight partaking-
Filling our plates with more and more!
It’s a wonderful time of year
When we renew the ties that bind,
While worshipping God, and fellowshipping
With friends…what amazing peace we find!

Early in the morning before you start your day...
Reach for something that will stabilize your way.
It cost nothing, but the dividends are great...
Pressures and demands, they can wait.
Reach for faith-that's the first thing you need to do...
When you have your faith, it invigorates you.
Think of God and all He's done...
Then thank Him for all the victories you have won.
A verse of scripture is good too...
Faith is the answer for me and you.
This gift is free and its benefits are great...
And it's our one action on which God seems to wait.
Prayer is power for our spiritual sight...
Fellowshipping with God from morning until night.
A great routine to follow each and every day...
Walking with Jesus as you follow His way.
