EACH BREATH I TAKE

EACH BREATH I TAKE

I thank the Lord for every breath I take

For only God knows when all life ends

It may come when you are young or old

What's is in His plans well it all depends

Perhaps He will give you a longer life

That enables you to minister His Word

Maybe you have yet to accept the Lord and

Years may go by before His Truth is heard

He may call a baby or a youth to glory

Their families distraught and full of pain

But God has a higher purpose for them

In time they'll see their loved once again

No matter how much time you have left on earth

Pray to and Praise and glorify our God and King

Obey whatever the Lord God may ask you to do

To understand that abiding in Him is everything

Then when by the Grace of God He calls you

And He says that it's time to end your years

Yeshua will bring you to His Father's House

Your answered prayer filled with joyful tears

THIRD ANNIVERSARY

Today is the third anniversary of the passing of my husband, Joel Steinhauer.

He is the author of all the poetry posted here.

I'm doing my best to continue posting more of his poetry weekly if possible.

May the Lord continue to bless you and use these poems to uplift and teach each of you!

THE WRESTLER

      THE WRESTLER

A few years ago I met a very talented student

He had joined the high school wrestling squad

He won every single match that he competed in

What he was lacking was a relationship with God

He was so skilled in this sport that

People saw him as the best around

He spotted his opponent's weakness and

Then proceeded to pin them to the ground

He went to the state finals and was defeated

But he learned a valuable lesson on that day

He accepted his Jewish Messiah and was humbled
He knew that win or lose God was in his life to stay

THE NUMBER ONE PRIORY

THE NUMBER ONE PRIORY

God does works in many different ways

That you and I will never understand

But we know Him through the Holy Spirit and

We know that our future has been pre-planned

We also know that God's Son paid the ultimate price

So as Believers in Messiah our sins are washed away

It doesn't mean that we don't have to ask forgiveness

For sins that we commit or are not aware of each day

Don't judge others because we too will be judged

Avoid offensive things that we know are wrong

Our rabbi has minister on this so many many times

By act accordingly our faith will always stay strong

Stop making excuses for not coming to Shabbat services

Like it's too far or my Kids need to be driven to a game

We know that if we're too busy for God we're just too busy

When we think about it these excuses are really very lame

Serving God always should be

Our very first one priority

He controls every facet of our lives because

His Word is always will be the final authority

A good example about what I mean

Is at your daughter's ballet practice session

She takes a spill and is unable to dance at her recital

Don't you think God is trying to teach you a lesson

If your priorities had been in the right order

The Lord would surely have let you know

Her recital would have been a huge success 

Her performance the highlight of the show`

Or perhaps your son allowed the winning to score

I'm pretty sure that both of you would be very sad

If you had lined yourself up with the word of G-d

Instead his winning hit would have made you glad

By now I hope that I have gotten my point across

The order of life's priority is G-d family then you

Ask His forgiveness and He will see that you know

As a believer you know that it's the right thing to do
