taking is agressive
receiving is most kind
yet giving is the essence
of our Savior most divine

inspired by Charles Wilson’s stewardship message

a legacy of the spirit
is not spent
but invested

will the interest
be as diamonds
or as
unseasoned coal?
©June 20, 2004
inspired by Jim Simpson’s sermon:
The Power of a Father’s Example

Papa, Mind Your P’s

Prayer is unleashing
Praise is heaven sent
Patience has dominion
when His
Purpose is your bent

Being playful
is instilling
“labor is not all”
sometimes a hug
or kind word
creates a papa
ten-feet tall.

inspired by Jim Simpson’s
message, “The Power of a Father’s Example”

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

You certainly know how to force me into introspection.  I had to take a quick look in the mirror.  The person looking back needs some work.  This type of inspiration makes me a much better person.  This one hit me with more than just words.  Thank you for the help and uplifiting inspiration.  Your words have been well received and not to waste.  

Thank you,

Kevin
