Eyes on HIM

In this tunnel, moving forward

progressing to the light of my Lord

focusing on His way, His will

emptying me, with HIS spirit fill

Looking back down the path

I was not meant to suffer wrath

Steps I took outside HIS gate

are the steps that lead to pain

Focus on HIM, His will, His way

Lord don't let me ever stray

though things might enter to distract

Let it no part of my walk impact

Your Word within me, all consume

my love to You is sweet perfume

Put blinders on me so I won't see

the flesh the calls and beckons me

Give me strength to only press on

and Wisdom's insight dusk to dawn

clothed in your righteousness not mine

no greater peace for me to find

~Sandra

Love Is

written a long time ago... I have no idea when


Love is...

sacrificing one's desires for another's
Caring enough to point out the wrongs
Using your brain before your words
Listening to their worries, feeling their pain
Searching their heart for what they need and providing it
trying to make it as easy on them as possible
Holding their cares in the pit of your soul
remembering things that bother them and avoiding it
when making them happy makes you happy
when seeing them sad grieves you
when you go out of your way to please them
worrying for their safety
taking care of them and their needs is your first priority
you wish for good things in their life
praying for the removal of bad things
