GENTLE THOUGHTS

IN THE QUIETNESS OF MY HEART, I PONDER ALL THE QUESTIONS FOR A NEW START.

I THINK OF OLD DAYS AND HOW THEY WERE SO TRUE.  SO EASY SO SPECIAL WITH RAINBOWS OF MANY HUES.

IT WAS SO EASY THEN NO COMPLICATIONS, JUST LAUGHING AND SMILING THE DAY AWAY.  NOT EVEN THINKING I SHOULD EVER GET ON MY KNEES TO PRAY.

NOW THAT I AM OLDER AND MY THOUGHTS THINK OF YOU.  I WONDER IF I HAVE PLEASED YOU, IF I'VE DONE THE THINGS YOU'VE TOLD ME TOO.

I WONDER IF I WILL SEE YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL LIGHT.  WILL I BE AT PEACE WITHOUT ANY FRIGHT.

WHEN THE SHADOW OF AGE COMES CLOSE TO US, AND WE SEE  THAT THE DAYS ARE GETTING SHORT.  IT'S THEN OUR MINDS BEGIN TO MEDITATE, AND THINK AND WONDER OF HIS HEAVENLY COURT.

THEN HE SAID TO THEM ALL," IF ANYONE DESIRES TO COME AFTER ME , LET HIM DENY HIMSELF, AND TAKE UP HIS CROSS DAILY," AND FOLLOW ME.   FOR WHOEVER DESIRES TO SAVE HIS LIFE WILL LOSE IT, BUT WHOEVER LOSES HIS LIFE FOR MY SAKE WILL SAVE IT.  FOR WHAT PROPHET IS IT TO A MAN IF HE GAIN THE WHOLE  WORLD, AND IS HIMSELF DESTROYED OR LOST.
