Drinking From My Saucer

I'VE NEVER MADE A FORTUNE
AND IT'S PROBABLY TOO LATE NOW.
BUT I DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT MUCH.
I'M HAPPY ANYHOW.

AND AS I GO ALONG LIFE'S WAY
I'M REAPING BETTER THAN I SOWED.
I'M DRINKING FROM MY SAUCER
CAUSE MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED.

HAVEN'T GOT A LOT OF RICHES
AND SOMETIMES THE GOING'S ROUGH.
BUT I'VE GOT LOVING ARMS AROUND ME
AND THAT MAKES ME RICH ENOUGH.

I THANK GOD FOR HIS BLESSINGS
AND THE MERCIES HE'S BESTOWED.
I'M DRINKING FROM MY SAUCER
CAUSE MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED.

O. REMEMBER WHEN THINGS WENT WRONG
MY FAITH WORE SOMEWHAT THIN.
BUT ALL AT ONCE THE DARK CLOUDS BROKE
AND THE SUN PEEPED THROUGH AGAIN.

SO LORD, HELP ME NOT TO GRIPE
ABOUT THE TOUGH ROWS THAT I'VE HOED.
I'M DRINKING FROM MY SAUCER
CAUSE MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED.

IF GOD GIVES ME STRENGTH AND COURAGE
WHEN THE WAY GROWS STEEP AND ROUGH.
I'LL NOT ASK FOR OTHER BLESSINGS
I'M ALREADY BLESSED ENOUGH

AND MAY I NEVER BE TOO BUSY
TO HELP OTHERS WITH THEIR LOADS
THEN I'LL KEEP DRINKING FROM MY SAUCER
CAUSE MY CUP HAS OVERFLOWED.

Verses That Have Stuck Out To Me

PSALM 23:1-3, 6 1.The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3.He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. & 6.Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PSALM 25:1-5, 20-21 1.Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. 2.O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me. 3.Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause. 4.Shew me thy ways, O LORD, teach me thy paths. 5.Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day..... & 20.O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee. 21.Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee. ~~~~~~~~~~ PSALM 27:14 Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. ~~~~~~~~~~~ PSALM 28:6-7 6.Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. 7.The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. ~~~~~~~~~~~ ISAIAH 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you would like to, please go get your Bible and read the whole chapters, and not just the verses I have here, these are things that David, (and Isaiah), had to say to the Lord way back when, and I'm sooo thankful that the Lord gave the Bible to us so that we might learn from others who's lifes he was working through, in some of the same ways as he is working through us now'a'days. Thank you LORD.

I Believe

I believe that God made the universe in just the span of six days, I believe that Noah built a mighty boat that floated safe on the waves; I believe that Daniel slept his cares away on the floor of the lions' den, I believe that the word of God is sure and points our hearts to Him.

I believe, From Genesis to Revelation, yes, Lord, I believe; That Your word is sure, Your love is pure, Your grace I now receive, the two words of my heart, Lord, I believe.

I believe that Mary had a baby boy, but Joseph was not his dad, I believe that Jesus lived a perfect life, No one else ever has; I believe that He died on a rugged cross to pay for all my sins, I believe that early on the third day my Savior rose again.
