Day by Day, One by One
[slideshow id=48]
I have traveled down many a road
Lived and have struggled with strife
Often times having carried a load
While searching to make a life.
As these roads had hardened me
With thoughts which made me to be blind
I had not allowed myself to ever see
And I was for ever in a bind.
Then one day a special friend I met
Gave to me what I was missing of
No longer must I live with regret
My heart is now filled with love.
Glory be, I must and do implore
For given the chance to find my way
From now on I shall adore
And when in doubt to say nae.
So with life I do have a choice
On these roads I shall keep in sight
Picking the right ones, I can only rejoice
No longer feeling like one to be trite.
People notice the gleam in my eye
And know the reason for the happiness
One day we will meet in the by and by
As we continue to choose to bless.
Yes day by day I go on living
One by one I can count my blessings
And when this life is over and done
I will be on my way to meet God’s son.
To dwell with him there on high
As he is sitting there on the throne
He will always ever be quite nigh
And I shall no longer be alone.

My dear friend…since we met…we knew…and our friendship proved…the will of God.
She stand right here… with the years…

You’re right Rodica, always hold on to that thought, life would be empty without our Saviour!
August 26, 2011 @ 10:19 am
No one is ever…alone…when we have the best Friend in whole universe…Jesus, our Savior!

CHRIST JESUS became my SAVIOR when I was in my teens, as I went to church with my Aunt and Uncle’s family, which certainly led me to the point of seeing the right way to live. It made life so much easier to be guided along life’s pathway with GOD on my side. Someday I will go to live eternity with GOD’S SON and all of my loved ones that have gone home over the years.

Jesus is the way, the truth, and the light. Ask him to come into your heart and you’ll have a friend for life.

Day by Day, One by One
A special friend has given me what I was missing too. I no longer live with regret and my heart is full of love. I am happier now than I have been in many years. As I struggle each day trying to take a few steps, I know now that I don’t walk alone. Someone cares.

Hi I’m correcting mistakes.
I wanted to say where it says in my last post: The Amount of Love: Wonderful.
Also- Once sometimes can try and try: I meant to say: Sometimes people can try and try- until they are,” blue in the face.” (showing love- trying to make friends and such).
Sorry for the mistakes. 🙂

When one excepts Christ as their LORD and SAVIOUR,They are NEVER alone.
It might seem like it at times,but that I believe is when HE is more near to the Believer.
Love is a Gift from the Creator of the Universe,
Friendship is also a Girft from The Creator of the Universe…
So is Marriage and Family…
The Amount of Love shows when it is given. Being alone is alot of times up to the person,
but making friends and the right ones at that (on the level,decent,respectable,truthful)people, is a
key to a womderful freindship and family relationship.
Once sometimes can try and try-until they are,”blue in the face.” with wanting to be friends and family but if the other person doesn’t want that,then.. the best thing one should do is walk away and pray for them.
Thats what I am doing with someone at this point in time,walking away from someone and praying for them.
I refuse to be anyones punching bag.
I hope this helps at least 2 people on this message board,in their own situations in life.
Take care all. 🙂

Enukpere,
His word is true and he has promised never to leave us alone. Believe and succeed as he will never allow us to walk this path of life alone. On this enchantment ground we only need to perserve. We certainly will not leave until we have finished our assignment. Let’s work while yet it is day, for the night cometh when no man can work. Your write up is a great piece. May God continue to inspire you for greater works in Jesus name. Amen.

I will not despair cause he is here to make sure i dare pass all the thicks & thins.
My heart just flash with joy just by reading this, thanks for making my day blossom.
November 15, 2010 @ 9:44 am
This is simply lovely.
November 15, 2010 @ 9:39 am
This is such a beautiful poem. As I read it my life flashed before me, I can see how good God has always been to me. Yes we make mistakes in our life, people hurt us but everyone has to give an account to God for his/her self. I pray that God has forgiven me my many sins, even when we think we have none, there are those we are not mindful of; all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God. I forgive all those who have hurt me and I wish to live in peace and love with everyone I meet. My desire to see the face of Jesus in everyone. God bless us all and may the Holy Spirit grant us His gifts of Love, Joy, Peace etc

I totally agree with Nobby Okeke, Steve Politte, Bet Lou!!! The things of this world will not go with us when we are called to meet our Maker. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust our fleshly bodies were and will be again but our spirits will be forever with Jesus if we believe He died for us, rose again and we are repentant of our sins, turning away from those sins, accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour, choosing to live for Him while on this earth. My prayers are with and for you Ms. Bonita Clark. God will heal you one way or the other, by His will it shall be done. This is such an inspiring message. I hope many more will benefit from it. Thank you to whoever wrote this!! God bless everyone even those who do not believe in Jesus, I pray they will somehow someway have someone plant that seed of the Good News that JESUS IS THE TRUTH, THE WAY AND THE LIGHT OF LIFE!!!

We will never walk alone, for God walks with us each day. Today and forever holding hands with God, to eternal life forever after. God knew I would be lost and I thank God for blessing me with you, to guide me and God’s Love through you ministers to me. I thank you!

This is beautiful. You will hear my ‘final goodbye’ to all those who ‘sincerely’ loved me, soon, may be this year. Feel relaxed atleast from nowonwards my spotty. You will join me later, maybe three or four decades from now, anyway.
January 4, 2010 @ 10:06 pm
Marvin,
This is Beautiful, and I know it will be a Blessing to so many, Your love for God shows in everything you write. I have been down many roads and I am so grateful that God was with me all the way even when I did not know He was there, But looking back I can see that He was, and always will be . God Bless You Eva

January 4, 2010 @ 5:26 pm
A remarable poem my friend. And a great E-card by Skip. Words of truth and meaningful. Yes, God is the way, the truth, and the Life. Only through His Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, can we really find happiness and peace and friendship, and not necessarily in this life. Riches mean nothing, Love and frendship means Life, and Life in with our God. Bless you Marvin for this poem. A friend.

We are living in a world that is filled with vanities, a wealthy man today, a corpse tomorrow and all the material things that we have laboured for in this world will no longer be useful to us. I, therefore wish to let every one that comes across this text, that the greatest thing that will ever happen in his or her life is to know the son of God, our lord and saviour JIesus christ and to make him the lord of your life.I appreciates the writer of the above e-card, it is inspired.
January 4, 2010 @ 3:53 pm
I’m so surprized that very few people had a response to this, we should all be proud to say we are trully children of God,”Our Heavenly Father, “Jesus Christ Thy Son Of God, ” The Holy Ghost, The Comforter That God Sends To Us, Whenever We Need It, Which is Most of The Time! God Bless all of you who believe, and all that do not know him, MAY YOU PRAY TO HIM AND ASK FORGIVENESS FOR YOUR SINS THAT YOU HAVE COMMITTED, BE BAPTISED, Recieve The Holy Spirit, by the laying on of hands! Live for him the REST OF THE DAYS OF YOUR LIFE, And You Shall See Him Again Someday! “GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU! “BET Lou”
January 4, 2010 @ 3:11 pm
I long for that wonderful day when I can meet Jesus and my precious husband and all my loved ones. Come LORD JESUS.
January 4, 2010 @ 2:06 pm
This is so true for so very,very many people.I know myself,I also have been in that very position.
