Always give without remembering and always receive without forgetting.

Watching television, what is so wrong?
Proclaiming vitality, glowing youth
Idolizing outward beauty and more
Turning down the chatter, looking for truth
Savoring this life’s fertile, golden years
Knocking at the door, God’s Word always clear
Finding our inner beauty, filled with love
Embracing the later years, without fear
Assuring us of our Lord’s divine plan
Receiving far more than we can afford
Propelling us forward, with Jesus near
Guiding our daily walk, by His accord
Gaining beauty from our relationships
Discovering family love each day
Restoring our energy with these gifts
Growing closer to our Lord as we pray
Sharing our wisdom and experience
Bringing opportunities, we also grow
Living as role models in God’s spirit
Opening new pages, as blessings flow

From Proverbs 2:10: “For wisdom will come into your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.”
Coretta Scott King Quote
I’m fulfilled in what I do. I never thought that a lot of money or fine clothes–the finer things of life–would make you happy. My concept of happiness is to be filled in a spiritual sense.
From Psalm 66:10-12: “For you, O God, have tested us; you have tried us as silver is tried. You brought us into the net; you laid burdens on our backs; you let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water; yet you have brought us out to a spacious place.”
Life’s Flame
From Psalm 92:1-2: “It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, O Most High; to declare your steadfast love in the morning, and your faithfulness by night.”
Giving thanks to our Lord
Praising His divine name
Witnessing steadfast love
Faithfulness sparks life’s flame
Growing old, bearing fruit
Believing in sharing
Abiding in Jesus
Youthful spirit caring
Trusting wholly in God
Reaping harvest of gifts
Walking always with Him
Mindset shall never drift
Flourishing in His light
Listening to His Word
Shaping fresh attitude
Beatitudes now heard
Growing every day
Feeling spirit at work
Hearing positive vibes
Life follows God’s framework
From Psalm 92:14-15: “In old age they still produce fruit; they are always green and full of sap, showing that the Lord is upright; He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.”
