Encouragement for Today
Welcome to a place where you can find encouragement for your daily walk with God!
A Birthday Gift for Jesus
What can I give to Jesus
For Christmastime this year –
A birthday gift for Someone
So holy, kind, and dear?
What’s on the Savior’s wish list
That I could choose to do
To show His love to others
And tell Him “I love You”?
Perhaps an act of kindness
In His behalf today
To bless a weary pilgrim
And help them on their way.
…
Counting My Blessings
I stop to count my blessings
And every time I find
There’s more than I can number
Since God’s so good and kind.
Yet still I love to list them,
These blessings from above,
To praise my God and notice
The greatness of His love.
For breath and life You give me,
For daily food and care,
For timely rain and sunshine,
For mercies everywhere,
…
With Thankful Hearts
With thankful hearts we look above
And see You on Your throne,
We glorify Your mighty Name
And worship You alone.
With thankful hearts we’re looking back
At all the things You’ve done,
We stop to see Your mighty works
And praise them one by one.
With thankful hearts we look around
At blessings from above –
Provision, guidance, answered prayer –
That show Your constant love.

My Prayer for You
I lifted your name to the Father
And asked Him to bless you today,
I asked Him to guide and sustain you
Each step of your heavenward way.
I mentioned your needs to the Father
And asked Him to amply provide,
I asked Him to show you His goodness
That always stays close by your side.
I spoke of your work to the Father
And asked Him to richly reward,
I asked Him to prosper your service
That honors our Savior and Lord.

How Many Times?
How many times have you painted the sky?
How many times taught a bird how to fly?
How many times have you sculpted a wave?
How many times carved a canyon or cave?
How many snowflakes and clouds have you formed?
How many diamonds by pressure transformed?
How many roses and violets designed?
How many stars have you lit and aligned?

Across the Line with Jesus
When someone draws a haughty line
And says it’s “us” and “them,”
We’ll see across the line they made
That Man from Bethlehem.
He always reached the lost and lone
And healed the sick and lame;
He saved the sinful, raised the dead,
And bore their guilt and shame.
So when we feel like being glad
We’re better than “that guy,”
Let’s stop and think what Jesus did
And tell our pride goodbye.
…
Still Worthy
Before the world existed
And time or space were made,
God’s Son was with the Father
In majesty arrayed.
But then He came among us,
A man like you and me.
He faced the same temptations
Yet stood in purity.
Messiah still was worthy
Of sitting on God’s throne
Where not a hint of evil
Can enter or be shown.
…
Coming Boldly (Hebrews 4:14-16)
Lord, help me come with boldness
To seek Your throne for grace.
You know how much I need You
And long to see Your face.
I boldly ask for mercy
For Christ my Savior’s sake
Who faced the same temptations
Yet stood and didn’t break.
He sits with You in glory
A sympathetic King
Who makes us sinners worthy
To ask for anything.
…
Well Done, My Child, Well Done
I cannot see the finish line
That’s somewhere up ahead –
The homestretch may be very close
Or miles away instead.
However far may lie between
That mark and where I run,
These words are what I long to hear
The day my race is done:
“Well done, my child, you finished well,
The crown of life you won.
You fought the fight, you ran the race,
Well done, my child, well done!”
