Mansions of Gold

I would rather live with my Father
Than dwell in mansions of gold
I'd prefer one gaze upon His face
To all the words men intone.

I would trade all I have to offer,
Ever bowing toward His throne,
Rejoice with the heavenly voices
Never again to walk alone.

I know I can't buy His forgiveness,
But long for His truth to touch
For He is the one who will judge us,
Knowing He'll be totally just.

I read holy words of salvation
His word lifts body and soul
Searching within to banish sin
He knows I await His call.

LIfe's days are rushing so rapidly
And time is flying too fast
I pray every eve to be redeemed
With a faith that's bound to last.

All I Need To Know I Learned From Noah's Ark

1. Don't miss the boat.

2. Remember that we are all in the same boat.

3. Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark.

4. Stay fit. When you're 600 years old someone may ask you to do something
really big.

5. Don't listen to critics, just get on with the job that needs to be done.

6. Build your future on high ground.

7. For safety's sake travel in pairs.

8. Speed isn't everything. The snails were on board with the cheetahs.

9. When you're stressed, float awhile.

10. Remember the Ark was built by amateurs, the Titanic by professionals.

11. No matter the storm, when you are with God there's always a rainbow
waiting.

Have a Blessed Day
