Quilted In Love

Quilted In Love

God- see's the beginning:

God see's the final end.

Life is stitched - in His love;

And sings within the wind.

Like a- loving mother;

Crochets or quilts a gift.

God is quilting in His love;

With golden threads adrift.

When troubles and great trials;

Seem to crash- all around.

Not a sin-gle voice of cheer;

In this world - can be found.

We find ourselves asking;

Is our Lord in control?

Has He left me here alone?

Does He care for my soul?

In this world of trouble;

Confusing, though it be.

God's golden threads of hope;

Gives hope, when we can't see.

Stitching here , mending there;

With precision, designed.

He is busy stitching;

A quilt that's golden lined.

Like a quilt upon His knee;

He holds each child with care.

He knows all our weaknesses'

He knows when there's despair.

He knows all of our needs;

and our choices and plans.

He knows the pain that we feel;

Like the prints in His hands.

Each quilt is valuable;

A golden lined life displayed.

A quilt designed, unique;

With worth that can't be weighed.

Will you yield to His quilting?

Will you desire His will?

As He's quilting His purpose;

In humility kneel?

If a quilt lays down yielded;

God's golden threads will gleam.

And to the world around it;

Jesus will clearly be seen.

Romans 6:13

Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

1John 3:16

Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

John 15:13

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

The Master Jeweler

The Master Jeweler

by: Susan Y Nikitenko

2009

I am a precious jewel;

In my Saviors sight.

Once a stone, within the ground;

Shining now, in His light.

I was dead, hid from sight;

Love, it dug me out.

When my night was brought to light;

Angels praised and jumped about.

I am special in His hand;

A diamond, dingy, dark and dim,

And He is busy molding me;

Into a perfect, Holy Gem.

In this world of dirt and rock;

There lies hidden treasures, lost.

Busy now, He looks for them;

He bought them at the cross.

While He chips your dross away;

With pressure, in the fire.

Remember, He’s the master jeweler;

Your beauty, His desire.

So put yourself, in His hands;

And take His change, as love.

When others see you shining;

They’ll trust in Him, above.

Have Faith My Child 2

Have Faith My Child 

Have Faith My Child 

Look not, to the storming waves.

Look not, to the thundering blasts.

But look to the horizon of Grace.

Look now, upon His Holy face.

Have Faith My Child

Look not, to the enemies arrows.

Look not, to doubting questions of why.

But look to the East of sweet vict'ry.

Our Father's in control and draws nigh.

Have Faith My Child

Look not, at the circumstances of grim.

Look not, to the heartaches of woe.

But look to the Master of comfort;

Upon Him, your head, lay down low.

Have Faith My Child

Look not, to the attacks of this world.

Look not, to the ravings of men in sin;

But lay your towering burdens down.

By Grace, through faith, trust Him.

Have Faith My Child

Look not, to trumpeting failures.

Look not, to the regrets of the night.

But look to our heavenly mansions;

And walk in the meadows of might.

Have Faith My Child

See then, the vict'rys of mountains removed.

See then, His power and might, so divine.

When walking in faith, the path of His grace;

Sweet joy and great peace you will find.

Have Faith My Child

Walk on waters of assurance.

Live by faith, in the hand of our God

Feast on manna of heavens joy

Stand strong, sing praise, cheer and applaud.

Applaud the Things Of God

His Reflection - By: Susan Y Nikitenko

His Reflection

By: Susan Y Nikitenko   2009

Here’s my best silver, glistening;

All polished, like new, it’s fine.

It took me many, many hours;

To see my own reflection shine.

Each piece, has an amazing story;

Of change in fire and flame.

Each unique piece must be tested;

Not one, beautiful piece is the same.

When it was carefully molded;

And all imperfections removed.

The silversmith closely watched it;

And skillfully made it smooth.

Placed in the hot spot of the heat;

It’s placed in the rolling fire.

The silversmith planned and purposed;

Each piece for his artistic desire.

Turning it, he handled it with care;

Removing all impurity.

Making works of art to be enjoyed;

As each one shines so beautifully.

This is our Saviours great desire.

In His grand and perfect design;

To purify us, through test and fire.

In His radiant grace we’ll shine.

His reflection, will be seen by all.

Our lives will reflect His loving face.

And when they see, His true love;

The truth of God, they will embrace.

We are dull silver in need of His shine;

Without Him we’re nothing but dross.

May I reflect His wonderful Grace;

And lead other souls to cross.
