FORGIVE AND LIVE
by RFH
In forgiveness
godly strength awaits;
Lord God, help us
to be strong:
That we would
forgive and live;
forgiving all
who have done us wrong.
Luke 23:34 "Father, forgive them,
for they know not what they do." (c) RFH 6/18/2016

- - - - - - - - BEHOLD OR WITHHOLD by RFH The choice is ours:
To behold or
to withhold;
By beholding
we become changed;
by withholding
we become worse.
Proverbs 23:7, "As a man
thinketh in his heart, so is he."
2 Cor. 3:18, "By beholding
we become changed."

WHEN ACCUSATIONS ABOUND
By RFH There was a certain Man who suffered centuries ago
by the hand of His accusers
who wrenched Him to and fro.
Many who have followed Him have suffered His same fate,
accusers being persistent,
vindication coming too late.
When you are accused falsely and God knows you didn't do it,
think upon that gentle Soul
and He will get you through it.
RFH 10/6/1998 "Come to me, all ye heavy laden,
and I will give you rest."

SHOW ME THE BEAUTY
by RFH
Show me the beauty
left in this world;
the sky, the sea,
the land, the trees.
Don't pull my mind
into bad thoughts,
but steer it
to the things
that please.
I'm no escapist;
a lot is wrong
with the world
and with all
who live here,
But so much is
right and beautiful
to behold
from afar
and up near.
So show me
the beauty
of what's here,
blind me to
the things
that numb;
So we can enjoy
the life we live
and more so
the life yet
to come.
(c) RFH 5/2/1997 .
