A Christmas Poem

  Joyous is Christmas Tis this season of aliveness As we celebrate our Savior's birth To this season joyous is Christmas Filled with love and forgiveness As relationships kindle in rebirth Tis the season of aliveness A time of the year given in wiseness As our Savior's birth gave our life worth To this season joyous is Christmas Gathered in warmth of love that's showered Given in the spirit of the season Joy fills the air upon each it flowered Keeping in mind this season the reason To this one's soul leaps in joy abound For His return we observe preseason In the spirit of Christmas peace surround Tis this season of aliveness We honor this day our King now crowned To this season joyous is Christmas         ©Doris Elaine Thoughts: This season remember the reason for the season is the birth of Jesus Christ who gave His life for us so we may live eternally with Him. Sometimes the best gift you can give is the gift of giving in love. For instance: I bought part of my grandch

A Poem for Thought!

   Pretty Awesome World In this place there's much I've adored From birds in the air to waters below Thank You for a pretty awesome world, Lord Seeing what You created I'm floored Your thoughts of beauty surely does show In this place there's much I've adored As to our needs in this place You poured Food, clothing, and a place to rest bestow Thank You for a pretty awesome world, Lord Although hard to cope this place sometimes I've learned to the good to look upon As the good outweighs the bad oftentimes Happy here is what your view based on I view the beauty You made of plenty The love You gave us I mean, c'mon A fabulous world than most of any In this place there's much I've adored Grateful to You I am of many Thank You for a pretty awesome world, Lord         ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : Sometimes we can get so wrapped up in our struggles or in our luxury or all that lays in between (what ever the case may be), that we forget just how beautiful this p

A Poem of Thought

  Makes the World go Round Due past experiences to them I frowned But my learning perspective has changed As toys and tools makes the world go round When the need for social them I found And my life became rearranged From the experiences to them I frowned Learning to some it's just a playground Where some need this their life estranged As toys and tools makes the world go round Also have learned they can be a tool If used properly, but some have misused As in the hands of some they can make a fool For to these tools some have abused Making them toys out of tools alike Have learned to this to be amused Now that my perspective has changed When to my past experiences I had frowned To now my thoughts to these rearranged As toys and tools makes the world go round         ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : My past experiences with Social Media applications, at times, was very emotionally draining; not good. But, thanks to those experiences I now have a new perspective on Social Media applications.

A Poem of Thought! - Wanted

  Wanted Sometimes one can feel unwanted But He will never mislead nor leave you In knowing with the Lord you're wanted Games people play can leave one daunted Leaving one wondering without a clue Can sometimes make one feel unwanted Making sense from where it was flaunted Resorting back to that which one knew In knowing with the Lord you're wanted No matter how others discard you The Lord will never turn one away He will always be a friend that's true When others to one's emotions play Causing your being emotional strain In this affected state He's there to stay The Lord never looks at one in disdain Even when one feels unwanted He helps you see with Him life's a gain In knowing with the Lord you're wanted          ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : Emotions seem to run high these days and many people make it a point-out of boredom or just for fun-to mess with others’ emotions without any respect to themselves or others. This can sometimes leave one feeling unwanted.

Alone Time

  Hey Guys, Was going to write a poem for this, but decided to just use my talking voice; instead. Some people get lonely and miserable when they spend time to themselves; especially if single. It's easy to get lonely and depressed by yourself when you have nothing to do. Seems one focuses more on loneliness if one is just sitting around doing nothing or just watching T.V. by one's self. Staying busy on a project or interest allows one not to think or feel so much about being by one's self nor in being lonely. Writing poetry and learning how to publish in paperback and eBook has really helped me a great deal in this area.  But, one can easily get bored with your alone time adventure. I can probably kick out a poem in just about any topic I feel I can relate to; however, my adventure in that area in the help it has supplied me is slowing down. Not that I want occasionally write a poem and post here, just that I need and want another adventure to fill my alone time. Although

A Poem of Thought for Thanksgiving

  Thankful for Your Friendship You were there when my life did slip Your love and care lifted me up with grace I'm saying, I'm thankful for Your friendship Now to life I'm able to get a grip Troubles in life I'm now able to face Because You were there when my life did slip You helped me in life to be equip In learning to love life in this place I'm saying, I'm thankful for Your friendship Sometimes to life I'm a bit confused When hurt in giving no bad intentions But You taught me to laugh at this amused You eased in life my mental tension Giving your support, amazed greatly Helping me with Your Devine intervention Now my worries are thoughts sedately Because your were there when my life did slip More of a friend now, than anyone else lately I'm saying, I'm thankful for Your friendship                          ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : Very thankful, this Thanksgiving,  for many things in life; especially for life itself. Thankful to God for giving me

A Poem of Thought

  You I Can Count On When my hope slips away and is gone Looking to others is not my solution I know You Lord I can count on I pray, lay down as I await for dawn Knowing You will bring a resolution When my hope slips away and is gone In my thoughts hope then becomes redrawn As You give to my pain retribution For I know Lord You I can count on Although sad due where the pain did come I know with You my heart is protected As You give me strength to overcome Giving to others my heart was infected Then You showed me to You I belong As You saw what others rejected My place with You is then made strong When my hope slips away and is gone For I knew my hope in You was never wrong As I know Lord You I can count on         ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : Loosing hope in this mixed up world we now live is almost inevitable; especially when we place our hope in others, rather than in the Lord. The Lord sees our hearts and our potential when others just can't see that deep into our souls. He never re

Welcome

Thanks for your patience and welcome to my new site! 

Simple as Me

 Hey guys,  Been told my site is simple and/or dated. 🤔 I could change it to be more up to date and/ or a fancy site as I do know how; but, I want due others opinions nor due society’s view of how blog sites look today. 😕 I’m not one to go along with the crowd, so to say. ☺️ My new site will be just as basic as this one, only a slightly different header as name changing and possibly different background; but, will still have same content. 😊 

Poem for thought

Redirected Focus Sometimes life causes one to be unfocus Making one head in the wrong direction The Lord can give redirected focus Looking on Him in life one can refocus Giving one a focused connection As sometimes life causes one to be unfocus With Him life is placed on autofocus No worries of life's concerning rejection As the Lord gives redirected focus When life sometimes greatly alters one's path The Lord is needed to guide one through Steering one clear of unnecessary wrath Focusing on Him one's path He knew As in giving one a more stable life In trusting in Him one path is true In life one's path sometimes brings strife As sometimes life causes one to be unfocus But, eyes on Jesus one knows of afterlife As the Lord gives one redirected focus         ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : So many distraction in the world that it is easy to loose focus in direction; especially when one forgets that life here is not the end game. I know I get greatly distracted with things I have

Knowing He is in your heart, less than a heart beat away, is sometimes all you need to stay planted in

God Does Bless-New Car

Hey Guys Just wanted to show how good God is. Was driving a 1997 Toyota Camry that was not going to last too much longer. I prayed God that it would last until I could get another good running car. God answered my prayers, after months of praying. And, it was better than I expected. He blessed me with a 2017 Kia Rio. Now, it is a manual and I had to access my memory muscles on that; but, I got this! The Lord has greatly blessed me. No more worries about my car breaking down. God is Good, all the time and in His timing and, even better, in His way!!

It Only Takes One

  It Only Takes One When in life one friend is better than none With one you know to life you are okay As in realizing it only takes one Although rough when the bonding begun You are both still together to this day When in life one friend is better than none For it seems fulfillment in life is done When to this the Lord you did pray As in realizing it only takes one The one lifts you with words of hope Making life bearable when it seems hard Giving you strength in life to cope This care can sometimes catch you off guard As you thought no one even cared Especially when life has left you marred Thankful to God the day you became paired When in life one friend is better than none For in life your loving care is then shared As in realizing it only takes one         ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : Sometimes one friend is all one may need in life to lift one up when one has none. Sure, one can have family or relatives that care; but, it is not the same as a friend outside of this care. And, some pe

God Is Love

  Without Love, I am nothing! " Though   I speak with the tongues of man and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.  And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. " (1 Corinthians 13:1-3. NKJV).  Love Never Fails!  " Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. " (1  Corinthians 13: 4-7. NKJV).  Spread The Love!

Now I Fight To His Glory

  Now I Fight To His Glory As the Lord edited Our story He showed me the nature of my purpose And now I fight to His glory Moving closer to His territory In His care I need not fear As the Lord edited Our story Although hard in this reformatory I give in and do shed a tear And now I fight to His glory When in His care my being viewed He does act on Our behalf knowing It's to His glory where change is spewed I then submit to this knowledge bestowing More tears in realizing in Him I trust As I know my faith is now growing To this revelation I know a must As the Lord edited Our story My being now wakes to this being just In faith now I fight to His glory          ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : As Christians we are contentiously in growth. And sometimes this growth can be very painful as God trims and prunes us for His purpose. We must have faith in Him alone to survive this world and know He will generate this faith; sometimes in the most unexpected and awesome ways. With me, I thought I ne

A Poem of and for Thought

Because I Refuse To Blend  When in this world the norm is to pretend I ask the Lord to guide me through Give me strength because I refuse to blend To others I do not mean to offend When I refuse to conform to other's view When in this world the norm is to pretend For it's to You Lord I do depend As in my commitment to You I grew Give me strength because I refuse to blend Sometimes in this world I do weaken When I see everyone following the flow Then Your guidance shines bright as a beacon In following You instead I know My soul leaps with excitement in gains As my being then guided and grows Sometimes this world gives emotional strains When in this world the norm is to pretend Thankful the Lord saves me from these pains He gives me strength because I refuse to blend   ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : In a world where it seems everyone else is doing something it can be hard when it's not your way of being. When your way is to not go with the flow of what everyone else is doing. Such

Poem of Thought-When False Hope Given

  When False Hope Given When to one's words you are driven Then one's words become misleading The Lord is there when false hope given One's words of hope bashed, you have forgiven However your heart now is bleeding When to one's words you did become driven Now it's with the Lord true hope is then His word gives strength in proceeding For the Lord is there when false hope given His word never fails when human words do Never changing His mind to what He has said True in hope to helping see you through Although with the let down your filled with dread And seems your hope has taken a beating His word can give back you hope to sore ahead No need to let your hope to be depleting When to one's words you had become driven True hope in His word is what's completing For the Lord is there when false hope is given          ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : Sometimes people can give false hope in saying words of promises. When these words have an extended time period one begins t

A Poem For Sunday

What I Bring Before Thee And I move through my life with glee Because You hear my prayer with action With all that I bring before Thee You amaze with few words spoken that be My heart gives into Our interaction And I move through my life with glee Although what's best I don't always agree I know for Us it be satisfaction With all that I bring before Thee My heart to Thee is shown from deep within As my worse fears is brought to Thee with care Thank You Lord, working with what's shown therein No worries, I show myself in prayer Baring all, giving my life to perceive Our souls then intertwine this place there As days, weeks, months escape, I still believe Now I move through my life with glee For that day my prayer You did receive With all that I brought before Thee          ©Doris Elaine Thoughts : Sometimes we give up on praying as time goes by and it seems they become unanswered. I have learned prayer does make a difference in our lives as we bare all to God. And, I know He

A Question for Thought

In our chatty world we now live, when did the Word (the Bible) lose it’s power to communicate?  For it is in silence and meditation on the Word that helps keep our mind and heart fixed on our future world; which, speaks creatively to our present world.

"The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him,
