What Words Can Do
Lord, inspire me ere I start the day
Help me to think about words I would say
Words that hurt, or are vicious, I don't need
Loving words, kind words, or pleasant even
With the right words, we can sow God's seed
A loving heart, encouraging words given.
As we trod the road of life here
Bills to pay, work to be done, sickness to fear
Family problems, or maybe your career
Is in danger; can you feel God is near?
Trust him, lean on him, your faith keep
You'll come thro just fine and joys youql reap.
................ L. Arlene Moffett
Lord bless this day and the hours in it,
Bless this day and each and every minute,
Thanks for a fresh day to live
Along life's way a little help to give,
A smile, a cheery word or two
Could help a stumbling s0ul make it through.
We can't all be a good missionary.
We can help a friend his load to bear.
God smiles down as if to say,•
"I liked what you did today."
Little things can mean a lot;
Kind words, a touch of a hand, even a nod.
