The War

I have an older brother that was
sent to fight in the war
And they sent him home a stranger
my brother was no more.
We used to be the best of friends
we used to be so close,
but that part of him stayed overseas
the part I miss the most.
He said that nothing can be done for him
no matter what they do,
so all I can do is just pray for him
and hope God can pull him through..

Just Knowing

As I sit in this house all alone in the night
I'm so glad to have Jesus to show me the light.
For without him I'm nothing, and when in despair
I can feel his love in me as I go to him in prayer.
And while I may not get the answers that I pray
for from the start, I still add all the families left
this year with broken hearts.
And I pray for understanding of the trials I must go through,
as my mind drifts to his death on the cross,
saying "this I did for you"..
I suddenly then came to realize, it wasn't only for me but for all
he died. 
And everyday he let's us know he wants us in his life, as
we read our Bible daily telling of his sacrifice.
And just knowing his love for all will never die, as
I kneel down to pray and a tear fills my eye..
Because no matter what I say or do, I know his
love for me is true.....

For My Husband

My love for you will always be a love that lasts forever,
And my love for you these past few years is stronger now than ever.
For only in your loving arms I feel that I belong,and I've
wondered if deep inside your heart your love was just as strong.
My love for you has always burned
like a long eternal flame,
and it's warmth heats up my body
as I whisper out your name.
My love for you is deeper than the 
deepest ocean floor,
And as I close my eyes and think 
of you my heart still yearns for more.
My love for you is that one of a kind,
that everyone wants but is so hard 
to find, and another thing I want you to know
that my dying day I'll still love you so.....

The Test

When there's times in your life
all you feel is despair,
just look to the Savior and know 
that he cares.
And the days you feel your life's
such a mess, just
try to remember it's only a test.
We will go through trials the rest
of our life, 
Don't let them leave you bitter, or
fill you with strife.
Just remember what you're going 
is only a  test,
And when you make it through,
you'll truly be blessed....
