Practical Love By Brenda Drake

There are so many practical ways to bless another
Practical, down to earth ways to serve others
Listen carefully and you will find
Many good ways to spend your time
When is the last time you have sent a card or a letter
To express that you are praying for them to feel better?
Do you know some one that is very stressed?
That is out of sorts because they don’t have time to rest?
Why not treat them to a dinner you have prepared for them
Just to show your love and concern as their friend?
A child with shoes out-gown or overused
Take them to a new pair choose
Practical love works, they are endless and are needed friends
The profit from your labor is paid back again and again
With smiles, and with blessings too many to count
A wonderful addition to your heavenly bank account
Call the one that loves you and misses your voice
Visit  sister or brothers so hearts in tune rejoice
Tell the lost about Jesus and also to them show
The way God touches in practical ways as He saves souls

Psalms 143:10
Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.

Father teach me how to love like Jesus.

When Love Blooms Perfectly

Once in a time past Love bloomed perfectly.
Man, woman and God as was meant to be.
There was a terrible split that caused separation to occur.
The lovely atmosphere was broken by infraction of God’s Word.
Love is celebrated by many in the modern day,
As well it should be as it is displayed.
With cards, flowers, candy, and such;
With words, attitudes and kind actions to lift each other up. 
But remember the perfect couple is not two and no more.
Love blooms sweeter when it is one with the Lord.
As you walk in union with your God and spouse,
Peace will rule and reign in your house.
For each will prefer the other as they go;
As together they allow God full control.
One day there is a wedding where again you will see,
Love has truly blossomed to perfection for all eternity.

 Revelation 19:9
And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
